Agreed. Each has a different context and I wouldn't want this one to go away.
As far as avoiding the commentary over there about "TFT should stay
the same," that's as simple as creating a thread titled RULES THAT
WILL NEVER APPEAR IN TFT, and reminding the occasional dunce that if
he doesn't approve of the rules variations suggested there that he
needn't implement it.
I think there is a bit of a filter on the SJ forum because of the
context of the new TFT release which looks like it's starting with
basic Melee and Wizard for new & nostalgic players, which is all well
& good but not much help to people who have remained TFT experts for
decades and want to talk about existing campaigns and house rules.
But I also think it only discourages rules improvements to add
comments about what SJ isn't going to do in the new versions, or as
you suggest to add one's own comment about how a new good idea will
never appear in TFT. I think that's pretty needless and counter-productive.
I also don't agree with Rick that SJ isn't going to tweak and improve
some things, especially for the later more advanced TFT books. SJ has
already posted some of his thoughts that include at least a few
tweaks and changes to things, and he's clearly reading the forums, so
I think it's better to stay positive about the potential for
improvements and don't see what it helps to be adding remarks that
you don't think SJ will consider changing things.
