Just what the title says. My perspective on all aspects of both playing and DMing has improved immeasurably due to this site.
I get to benefit from all sorts of points of view and creative input into anything even remotely DnD related, and can trust that for the most part discussions are civil and responses well thought out.
Not to mention that there is frequent involvement here by those who are in the industry at any given time. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have ever got the chance to message back and forth with people like Monte Cook, Ryan Dancey, Mike Mearls, and, of course, Mr. Gygax himself if not for this site.
Also: the really cool thought experiments: Remember that time we endeavored to make and flesh out a Dnd world(regrettably I've lost track of it since)?
Didn't we try to invent a word on here once? Wasn't that word 'grok'? Correct me if I'm wrong here. For some reason it's in my head that ENWorld invented that word. I've seen the word show up other places ... I though I heard Stephen Colbert use it once ...
I think lots of this is thanks to the mods and the very good jobs they do keeping this such a civil place; enabling, I think, all the great things listed above to happen.
So, yeah. I just had to gush a little. I think it's out of my system.
