Alex made his statement and did not feel he needed to belabor the point.

I think Krensky made the best statement on the issue yet.

Iku, Doublebond made the best point about your worded mix up. Fact is at one point you did say "Large PCs are fine at Level 1" and then a few posts later "Large PCs are broken at Level 1". You did post those. Go back and look if you want.
I did not post those. Go back and look if you want.

If anything is "broken" it's allowing Large characters from level 1. That's the problem, and nerfing every logical advantage of Large characters is not a sensible solution.

That was the first thing you said on the issue.

That's right. And guess what? It doesn't say neither "Large PCs are fine at Level 1" nor "Large PCs are broken at Level 1". I even put the word "if" in italics to emphasize that. (And yes, I did notice how you edited that away when you "quoted" me earlier.)

I talk about solutions in the next sentence, and later in the same post I suggest using a 3.x rule that reduces the power of Large characters. (In a way I consider logical, or at least "not completely illogical".) Does this suggest "it's impossible no matter what"? No.

Similarly, you are the only one insisting their's a problem with the rule. Pawsplay and other's don't care for it, but they're either used Morgenstern's (aka Scott Gearin) alternate rule, come up with their own, or something. They're not here insulting the boards and designers trying to get the system rewritten.

I'm not the only one insisting there's a problem. That's untrue. The fact that one could make up a house rule is not relevant. (Say hello to textbook Oberoni fallacy...) Nor am I trying to "get the system rewritten". There's a difference beteen "I don't like X and here's why" or "I think X would be a better rule than Y", and "I DEMAND THAT X BE CHANGED"? But I think you know that...

Edit: Small addition.

Iku Rex, if you want to continue the discussion, that would be great, but at this point, you've basically ruined the thread for any continued useful discussion. I do not understand your purpose at all. It's too bad, really.

People, ENOUGH.

Iku, I'm sorry you feel set upon for your opinions. As the minority/new guy I know it can seem like your getting ganged up on. Our community is obviously committed to our products and to the generally open and friendly nature of these forums.  I'm not sure if you realize it but you have come off as hostile and somewhat dismissive in your posts at times, even when I explained my position on a few occasions. I don't mind discussion or even debate about rules structures, but I don't have a whole lot of time to go round and round on the same point. I feel I've said what I need to say in this thread and about this topic.

Everyone else - please take it easy. This debate obviously has gotten way too heated but I'd also hope cooler heads will prevail in the future. I'm getting a little concerned I've had to close down more threads in the last 3 months than I have in the last 3 years.

Thread locked to give everyone a breather.
