Please stop wasting bandwidth with the most juvenile argument seen on this
net. Why in the name of <insert deity> is everyone on this net (recently)
determined to get the last word? Listen folks: If you want to make
the magic attribute more powerful, Doom's system works logically. I also
think that whoever posted the first comment about why is this necessary did
add something useful to the debate. The rebuttals from everyone have not
been anything more than "Because I want to (which is valid), so get off my
case (which is defensive, and has let to long drawn out arguments about
who got on who's case).

Ditto slavery, and I add a special chill out request to Carter: just because
you don't think you're a slaver, and just because the prevailing opinion
of the rules agrees with you, does not mean that there are not legitimate
reasons for thinking otherwise, and there are very strong reasons for
creating a Free the Spirits Policlub, which, like all policlubs can make
itself a really annoying nuisance to PC's. Everyone please stop being
so damn defensive about your posts--if you don't want criticism, some of which
is bound to be insulting, don't post it.

Sorry to sound so annoyed, but I am.
