I may dump on 4th Edition, or other games I personally don't like here on my blog. It's my blog, so it's my place to do just that.
I do not, never have, and never will, go to the blog of some fellow gamer who does happen to like 4E (or any other game I don't like) and dump there.

COWARD! WHO ARE YOU TO CENSOR WOTC! MY GRANDPA DIED FOR YOUR FREEDOM AND YOU ARE WASTING IT!
ReplyDeleteOh wait, I thought I was someone else.
Yes, I guess you are right. It is YOUR BLOG and all. I wonder who is passing out the group-think kool-aid lately. It has really been powerful.
I may be guilty as charged for that crime. I recall replying to someone who posted a "Classes Suck" entry on their own blog.
ReplyDeleteReally, doing so was a waste of my time and theirs, as they had no interest in dialoging.
You are a drive-by game-banger, Paladin. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's one thing to "dump" on someone's else blog, and are insulting or whatever. ( Not saying you've done that, or will do it. ) it's another thing to give a reasoned arguement about why you don't like something. Commenting on a blog, saying 4E sucks isn't a great idea, giving your reasons why you don't like it seems fine to me. If they don't like it they can always delete the comment. There's not enough reasonable discussion going on, most resort to personal attacks and insults. Everyone has a physiological age, and a psychological age. and to me some of the bloggers and commenters seem real immature.

Too true.
;)
Your blog LG, you can do what you like. If people don't like it they don't have to read it.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for discussion. Zanazaz is correct. We put stuff up on our blogs because we want to express our opinions. Getting reasons to the contrary from others in the comments should be expected.
ReplyDeleteComments that equate to dropping a turd in the punch bowl are immature, and pointless. So I don't do it.
Paladin--OK, you've atoned. Get back to laying on hands and all that. :D
And Greg, I don't really agree with everything you were posting about in that big dust-up, but hey, it's your blog to post on, and you're definitely not required to only post things that I or anyone else would approve of. That's why I mostly kept out of it.
I don't have a dog in this fight, but just wanted to let you know that I found this post interesting.
