I feel like the new guy, and am still getting used to some of the nuances which exist in any community, but seems awfully helpful so far.And to be honest, even if everyone here was evil, I would still hang out simply to soak up some of the VAST knowledge collected here. LOL, And to think, until a few months ago, I thought I knew a ton about collecting D&D...

Seriously, you should see how they treat newbies on some other boards I used to frequent. And talk about general ass-hattery. The internet has confirmed every bad suspicion I've ever had about humanity. I could posit a theory that the higher quality of discourse here is because it's a more mature audience. Or maybe old school D&D players are just naturally bright, personable and intelligent in general. Who knows?

I've never posted there....but from all of the threads I have read I realize that 1) I could have an advanced degree in astrophysics and I still wouldnt be intelligent enough for their tastes, 2) I have no desire to debate which is faster: travelling through hyperspace or warp speed, and 3) I could count all the vulgarities I have used on this forum over the years and the total number wouldnt come close to the amount of curse words used in one single thread there. Or you could become a member of pretty much any message board that discusses some form of sport and I guarantee someone will end up hating you before too long.

I'd say that's changed quite a bit in the last couple of years. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the spot, with the caveat, just hang for awhile and know your stuff before posting too much.

Mostly because they were describing something wrong, or not in enough detail, or they may have had the wrong items in the wrong listings, mixing portions of box sets with other things, meaning that some other listing might be missing a key item.For some reason (it seems) that sort of activity is not appreciated by some members here.WHY?
