[QUOTE="jbear, post: 7681065, member: 75065"] Being a 4e fan, I used the WotC forums to check out cool 4e builds pretty often. I don't think I ever posted there though, that I recall. Maybe to ask a question or two ... not sure. I may have signed up for the 5e playtest ... my memory fails me. In any case, I do hope someone has the time and passion to rescue the cool stuff that people have worked on over the years. As for the possible influx of posters coming over to ENWorld, welcome to you all. I am certain you will find lots of treasures here on these boards as well. It's disappointing that the posts immediately following Morrus' warm welcome were edged in tone. I can understand people's fears that some of the negativity apparent on the WotC boards might transfer over here, and need to express the importance we generally all hold that such a thing doesn't happen here at EnWorld, because it is one of the main reasons we choose to spend our free time reading and posting here. It would be a lie to say that EnWord is completely free of 'toxic' posting. There have been flare ups both with the arrival of 4e and 5e which personally turned me away from regular forum discussion posting on both occaisions (the latter being the lesser). I really don't want to spend my spare time feeling bad about a hobby I absolutely love basically. I usually just read news stories and post in the pbp forums now. If there is the odd discussion I find particularly interesting I'll throw in my two cents. So, yes, we all have our warts over here too. But as others have said, people do make a genuine effort to argue politely, the mods here are super active, and always fair and clear. Morrus has already jumped in on the welcome being not so welcoming, so I'm certain that'll be the end of that. So again, a genuinely warm welcome to anyone new who decides to join us here at EnWorld.
