Are you really prepared to speak on behalf of all D&D players everywhere? Have you done exhaustive interviews and polling and scientifically proven that all D&D players everywhere want the same thing? Are you seriously calling some one on semantics? I'm going to have to respond with an equal amount of smartassery and say yes, he does speak for every player ever, as he is from a future where every hobby is governed by a single collective concious :D . Personally I like having physical copies of things.

Everything is better when you read it in Bane's voice.
Your human antics and desire to continue living have moved me. Just kidding. You cannot move me physically or emotionally. Wall humor.
Copy effects work like a photocopy machine: you get a copy of the 'naked' card, NOT of what's on it.
Funny story: InQuest Magazine (I think it was InQuest) had an oversized Chaos Orb which I totally rooked someone into allowing into a (non-sanctioned) game. I had a proxy card that was a Mountain with "Chaos Orb" written on it. When I played it, my opponent cried foul:
Him: "WTF? a Proxy? no-one said anything about Proxies. Do you even own an actual Chaos Orb?" Me: "Yes, but I thought it would be better to use a Proxy." Him: "No way. If you're going to put a Chaos Orb in your deck you have to use your actual Chaos Orb." Me: "*Sigh*. Okay."
I pulled out this huge Chaos Orb and placed it on the table. He tried to cry foul again but everyone else said he insisted I use my actual Chaos Orb and that was my actual Chaos Orb. I used it, flipped it and wiped most of his board.
Unsurprisingly, that only worked once and only because everyone present thought it was hilarious. 
My DM on Battleminds:
no, see i can kill defenders, but 8 consecutive crits on a battlemind, eh walk it off.
Hi guys! So, I'm a sort of returning player to Magic. I say sort of because as a child I had two main TCG's I liked. Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon. Some of my friends branched off in to Magic, and I bought two pre-made decks just to kind of fit in. Like I said, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were what I really knew how to play. I have a extensive knowledge of deck building in those two TCG's. However, as far as Magic is concerned, I only ever used those two pre made decks. I know how the game is played, and I know general things, but now I want to get in the game for real. I want to begin playing it as a regular. My question is, are all cards ever released from the time of the inception of this game until present day fair game in a deck? Or are there special rules? Are some cards forbidden or restricted? Thanks guys, and I will gladly accept ANY help lol. 
I have the same problem with women.
Is this my new ego sig? Yes it is, other Barry

And that's why you should never, ever call RP Jesus on being a troll, because then everyone else playing along gets outed, too, and the thread goes back to being boring.
See, this is why RPJesus should be in charge of the storyline. The novel line would never have been cancelled if he had been running the show. Specifically the Slobad and Geth's Head talkshow he just described.
Not only was that an obligatory joke, it was an on-topic post that still managed to be off-topic due to thread derailment. RP Jesus does it again folks.
I think I'm gonna' start praying to Jesus... That's right, RPJesus, I'm gonna' be praying to you, right now.
O' Jesus
Please continue to make my time here on the forums fun and cause me to chuckle.
Amen.
It was wonderful. Us Johnnies had a field day. That Timmy with the Grizzly bears would actually have to think about swinging into your Mogg Fanatic , giving you time to set up your silly combo . Nowadays it's all DERPSWING! with thier blue jeans and their MP3 players and their EM EM OH AR PEE JEES and their "Dewmocracy" and their children's card games and their Jersey Shores and their Tattooed Tenaged Vampire Hunters from Beverly Hills 
Seriously, that was amazing. I laughed my *ss off. Made my day, and I just woke up.

Reading these lengthy articles on the computer is so tedious. Articles the length of those in Dungeon and Dragon magazines are much better read on paper than at a desk on a computer. Agreed. I bought the Dungeon PDFs fo Age of Worms, but I print out the adventures as I need.
The electronic copies are good for putting artwork on the website. I take care to include the artist's name in the image.

Personally I like having physical copies of things. Yeah, I have to agree. I liked opening the mailbox and getting seeing a shiny new copy of D&D material waiting to be perused.
Especially when I was deployed, I loved getting print copies of Dungeon and Dragon in the mailbag.

Personally I like a hard copy that I can carry around with me, so that I can read it ANYWHERE  . But seriously I don’t mind and even like a PDF version of the magazine. Being able to print multiple copies of an article (so that everyone in my group will be on the same page, :whatsthis ) is a great plus. BUT the original idea that was proposed was a magazine in pdf put out every month (or it may have been every two months.) I (and everyone else) am still waiting for the next magazine (both Dragon #361 and Dungeon #151) to come out in a compiled pdf. I just don’t have the time to sift through every article this web site to find the ones that interest or help me with my game. If you folks at WOTC need help compiling said magazines I’m sure I or some other fan would be willing to help do so.:invasion:
