Jerry,

You seem to be peppering multiple threads with your thoughts about Serious Business/Gaming Den angst/Frank and K personality dissections. I suggest you start a thread devoted to these topics, and contain yourself to referring to these topics in that single thread. People don't appreciate you passively stating these things, and consequently derailing threads. If you don't stop, you will have more posters react to to you like the following:

Jerry it is very simple.

Frank cares about facts. Everything else is somewhat of a joke, and he will fell free to be an ass about it.

When Lich Love says "The DM can fix that!" that is an actual problem and needs to be stopped. Because Lick Love is making life worse for other people by convincing others to not correct problems.

If Lich Love threatened to kill Frank's family, he wouldn't give a damn.

You think threatening to kill someone's family is worse then saying something that is wrong and causes others to come away with wrong impressions.

I disagree, I assume Frank does as well. If what you have to say is a personal insult that does not affect anyone other then the person you are insulting, and they can freely choose to ignore it or respond, then it is really doing no harm.

If what you have to say is that problems that affect at least 100s of people (the people that are going to buy/run Pathfinder) should not be fixed, that is sirus biznez, and you need to be put down.

To understand this, you have to accept that facts are more important then people's feelings, and that is something you will never be able to accept.

Don't get me wrong, he's a sharp guy and he's actually pretty nice when you talk with him. I'm just tired of hearing about him.
You're not alone, I'm sure, unfortuately a certain individual just won't seem to shut the fuck up about him.

Hey, you know what would be even more coolness? IF YOU HEALED UP TO FULL AFTER EVERY SINGLE BATTLE AND HAD ALL YOUR POWERS BACK, OMG, BALANCE WOULD BE WICKED EASY.

Honestly, he's kind of right. People in 4e basically act like Wiley Coyote anyway, so bothering to keep track of resources between battles at all is kind of pointless. Once you wrap your mind around the fact that there is no amount of damage you can possibly take without dying in this battle that will have you be in any way short on hit points in the next battle, having people exhaust their healing surges by the third battle just makes people rest more often. It doesn't make things more realistic and it doesn't make the game any more exciting or interesting.

So yeah, why not? As long as all the characters are Toons anyway, why not give them all their hit points and super powers back with every 5 minute rest? No one can do anything with their powers that actually matters in the world, so it doesn't fucking matter.

Balance would be wicked easy. Also you'd get to use your dailies more often thereby making the sumos marginally less padded. Sounds like a step up at least.

Fifth post down.
Ridiculous? Why, yes, I suppose it is.

Yeah, I know what you meant. I concur. I've just been up for too long today and didn't string together the right amount of vitriol/sarcasm to express my opinion about his opinion.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

I find that pounding on the keyboard to produce something like :OSIHDF)(SDYPUHGPG usually works fairly well.

I just had to order a replacement keyboard from Hong fucking Kong. For months, I was posting on here without the benefit of a functioning W key. I am not pounding on this thing.

Otherwise, I'd be taking your advice.

You can work around it, I found out. For one thing, it's common enough I could copy and paste it if I needed to use it in a search engine. And if I was talking to someone over AIM, I could use two v's.

But then my 'e' key died, and that's along about when I went online looking to order a notebook keyboard.
