Never a truer sentence was spoken!The thing is, though, catering to irrational customers is never a good business strategy since you'll never be able to please them... they're irrational, after all.So why not abandon them and their inane whimsy? It's not like they're making you money since they'll cancel subscriptions and blockade your product over idiotic little things like whether the system uses an archaic 3-18 ability score system or not.The fact is that the old guard are dying off. Encounters and Lair Assault are, IMO, quite obviously aimed at a younger audience and from what I've seen of Encounters nights at stores, they're dominated by the 16 to 25 crowd. This is the new generation of gamers who are embracing PNP and who are coming from Warhammer, Magic the Gathering and World of Warcraft.Like it or not, that's where the game is heading. Personally, I'm excited to see where it goes and don't give a fig about the whims of people who place importance on irrelevant, out-dated mechanics like 3-18 stat spreads.</blockquote>
