[QUOTE="Arcane Runes Press, post: 23340, member: 402"] First, it may have been said, but it's not true. You can find LOTS of anti-Greyhawk talk from FR players. That's what happens when people have different tastes. Second, if you want to say you "grew up", fine, but don't expect that people who dislike (or hate) the realms haven't yet. Tastes differ and much of what gets said on message boards has to be taken with a grain of salt, since it's such an impersonal, imperfect means of communication. Chances are good that many people, both supporters and detractors of the Realms, would lose much of their vehemence if they were speaking face to face. For myself, I don't hate, or even dislike, the Realms as a campaign setting. I DO think certain aspects of it are inexcusably silly. I certainly don't need to be told that I can change the Realms or ignore NPCs if I want, duh, I know. The fact that I can ignore something doesn't invalidate my right to find it distasteful or silly.
