[QUOTE="Azlan, post: 192413, member: 2340"] 1.) I used the word elitist (not zealot), and the guy even agreed that his, indeed, was an elitist position. 2.) I did NOT refer to [i]everyone who disagreed with me[/i] as elitists. I used the word "elitist" to describe someone who demands that roleplaying be the [i]sole[/i] deciding factor of the situation given in that post. Note the difference! I am not saying that [i]everyone[/i] who posts here regularly is a troll or otherwise counterproductive. However, I am saying that many of those who [i]are[/i] trolls or otherwise counterproductive [i]do[/i] post here regularly. Again, note the difference! Are some of you so jaded that, when you see a new post with a subject that obviously is one you've already participated in, time and time again; instead of moving on, saying "Been there, done that," you dive right in again, just so you can hoot and jeer, root and holler -- and thus be entertained? And what if I'm new here, and haven't read a particular post that has already been discussed a great deal? Or what if I'm not new, but I don't visit often, and I missed that particular post? Being that this message board doesn't have a working search function, should it be a gaffe, a faux pas, or flamebait for someone to bring up a topic that has already been discussed a great deal?
