[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9063126, member: 6801228"] Since when does "beer and pretzel game" mean "fat drunk"? I always was under the impression that it referred to a relaxed, combat-only style of game, that didn't care about optimization or much about plot. I think you really went from zero to a thousand there with the accusations man. As for your points... 1) Combat doesn't go faster if you have a wizard, druid, cleric and then you pick a champion fighter. Sure, you can speed up your turn, but you aren't speeding up the entire combat. In addition to being unable to control what classes other people pick, you have OTHER classes that are equally fast. The Barbarian and Rogue can take fast turns, same with paladins and rangers. If you just want a fast turn, you aren't limited to just the champion fighter. 2) Has nothing to do with class. Everyone can do this. Stop trying to peddle "I have no options" as "I have the freedom to try new things". Everyone has that freedom. Most of them ALSO have options. 3) This has nothing to do with your class. People who play wizards can sit and listen to other players. Seriously man, you are associating player behavior with class like it is some zodiac sign. People who play other classes aren't combat-perfection obssesed jerks who won't listen to your RP. 4) And the same thing. I'm a heavy RPer. I play a lot of classes. Just because I play paladins and druids doesn't suddenly mean I don't RP. You seem to have just associated "I play a champion fighter" with "I'm a good player who cares about the story and world" and that's just a bit gross. [/QUOTE]
