Ivy,

Show me where it is written that, "ignoring the SR Companion is a
direct violation of the SRII Core Rules." What sort of nonsense is
this? (For that matter show me where it says, said sourcebook is
*included* in these so called, "Core Rules" or that this "Core" even
exists!)

AND I'll show you numerous places where the authors (note the plural)
have written that we as players & GMs should never let the rules get in
the way of the story. The same is true for all of the sourcebooks and
modules.

The idea here is to Role Play and HAVE FUN. From the tone of your
posts this past week, you seem to have forgotten this.

I certainly see no need to get so uptight about such things. Your
players and storyline will benefit far more if you wouldn't either.
