Because I feel like it.

IcyCool said:Very well, different example then. My company states that the data supplied by a particular program we created is valid, and that only supplemental modules or patches that we create will give valid data. All other sources are not to be considered valid data from this program. Now I, as a programmer who worked on said program, say that datafield 4 says "A" but means "B". However, no patches will be created.
Now, obviously you'll give my words more weight than the average Joe, but according to my own company's posted rule, unless it comes from the program, a supplemental module, or a patch, it isn't valid data from the program. So, does "A" mean "A", or does "A" mean "B"?

I just mix them up, i'm as liable to use fathom, as understand. Help, as assist. Sleep, as hibernate![]()
Ogrork the Mighty said:But the fact that WotC allows the statement to remain is a tacit indication of it's acceptance as correct. Otherwise, it wouldn't be allowed to remain on the website.

IcyCool said:So in the case of the FAQ giving two contradicting answers to the same rules problem, WotC is tacitly indicating that both are correct?
IcyCool said:On the contrary, "smart" and "more intelligent" don't necessarily mean the same thing. Admittedly, I meant "more intelligent".![]()
