One of the reasons, though, that I loved SR From the moment that I got
involved with it is the fact that it really is a "Living World". The place
grows, changes, expands, and that hasa certain appeal to me. It's like
getting to play in someone else's Sandbox for a while.

I like to create my own world's too, and that's another reason I like
AD&D... YOu can do pretty much whatever you want (As GM), and even if
you're using a stock setting, like Dragonlance or Forgotten Realms, you can
still fiddle and add stuff, and no one will complain. Try throwing
something completely out of place into a SR campign, and half our players
would go into convulsions.
