Exactly my point.  Us new people DON'T know all you know, so the game is
quite fun for us.  (And a bit cheaper than AG since I can run 5 characters
for the cost of ONE AG character.)

This may or may not be true, but it should be pointed out that only the ones
who leave with bad feelings are going to be vocal about it.

I disagree completely with this philosophy.  It's enlightening when you
compare the differences between the games, but it serves no good purpose
to bash a game just because you personally became disenchanted with it.

I'm very happy to hear that you are so well aquainted with what everyone
would enjoy, but IMHO it would be better to let us decide for ourselves.

Yes, I plan to do this, (when I can afford it! ;-)

I will remember, but in the meantime, I plan to enjoy my one lone DM team.
