The two people I expected to tell me I'm wrong, did. I owe myself $20.

While I agree with some of what you say, I'd like to remind everyone we all at our core want what's best for the server. It is just we disagree with the method, so lets keep this discussion civil.

But arguing against all these suggestions and all these people stating they'd like more resources and more opportunities for PCs to do more with the world and not just other PCs is simply reinforcing the point you swear I'm wrong about.

They(we) want change.
You don't want change.
Hm.
 :whatsthis:

It doesn't matter whether you're right or wrong about *that* point because it's not germane.

If anyone in the thread said "Change is bad," then you'd have some reason to take this position, but if people are saying "Involve more PCs in your events," then you're being nonresponsive when you say "You don't like change."

You're making the argument about people instead of the topic (ad hominem).
