[QUOTE="Cadfan, post: 4743687, member: 40961"] I don't know what to say about this except that I know a LOT of graybeards convinced that game companies stole their ideas. Our local guy is convinced that he designed hald of Carmegeddon. We just nod our head when he talks, its best that way for everyone. Dude. I feel like I should respond to this by mimicking your title: "What are you, 82?" You're right. The podcasts feature foul language. Also, they feature celebrities popular with people under the age of about 35. Many of them are new to 4e, and some are new to D&D. So you're correct, they don't know the rules very well. The podcasts are also incredibly popular. The players have fun, the dialogue is interesting, This is COMPLETELY wrong. WotC's forum moderation is even less useful than ENWorld's. Its true that threads get locked, but those threads go far, far further down the rabbit hole before they do than anything here. And the people who provoked the lock never receive anything more than a slap on the wrist. IP bans are against policy. And writing lengthy, flame war posts about how cruelly the mods treated you is considered a sport, and is in fact tolerated by the mods in an extra burst of ironic flavor. Let me put it this way: if I made a signature proclaiming that I was "destroying fanbois, one by one," filled my every post with a made up word "retarted," would ENWorld's moderation 1. tell me to stop, or 2. discipline people who yell at me, and post that its unacceptable for other people to treat me like a troll, even if I engage in trolling in other threads. Delete the occasional post that goes too far out of line, and carefully protect my ability to call people "ghey" "retarted" or "fanbois." The PDF thing is silly, but are you really defending sites like emass? Its not because you're old. In fact, defending sites like emass is something almost exclusively for 12 year olds. So you've got something in common with this generation after all! [color=red]Admin note: Personal attacks are not suddenly okay.
