If you define the min/max approach to the game as 'a player who exploits loopholes to create as powerful a character as possible, usually to the detriment of his fellows' then it can't be anything except bad. But there are other definitions, as folks on this thread are trying to illustrate.Personally I don't see min/maxing as bad, myself. Making sub-optimal choices for your PC is all well and good, as long as the rest of the group does it as well, but if I want to create a PC with legs and staying power, someone who might actually reach mid-high level without relying almost completely on the skill of his compatriots, then my choices are going to be as close to optimal as makes no odds.</blockquote>
