[QUOTE="Jacob Lewis, post: 8525238, member: 6667921"] Why is it that the same conversation about 4e keeps coming up like this? Isn't anyone tired of living in 2009-2012 yet? If you don't like it, fine. I don't need to know your reasons, and you don't need my validation for them. It is perfectly acceptable to me if your reasons are perfectly acceptable to you, regardless how I feel about it. And if you are a fan, great! I am, too. In fact, I have gone back to that system over everything else. Why? Because I am sick and tired of going along with everyone else's ideas of what I should or shouldn't like. I am tired of defending what I like to an audience of people who were never interested in learning more in the first place. What really upsets me is the fact that I (and anyone else) can't bring up my favorite edition in public, or around people who are supposed to be fans of D&D, without the risk of turning every conversation into this! So I'm asking everyone. Please. If you're a fan of 4e, or actually want to know more about it, then let's go over to the new sub forum and talk about it. Stop wasting energy on this negativity. Don't let a company or a stranger online keep you from playing or talking about something you like. I am working on some things over there, building a campaign, etc. But I feel like I am talking to myself mostly. I'm not expecting a huge audience but I know there are people who still like 4e. I see it in threads like this. I get messages from people who are essentially hiding because they feel attacked and ostracized. And for what? Because of the edition they like. And if you don't like something I said, then please just ignore me. I don't come here to debate or argue, even though I get sucked into it more than I care to admit. I just want to enjoy D&D again. I suspect others do, too. [/QUOTE]
