    standards of imaginary worlds to be maintained.
    In an Imaginary world... there no "Standard". Because everything is made up ( not real).. Its suppose to be fun and creative . Expand your mind.. and not just seclude yourself to 1 particular thing...

    There are imaginary worlds, and Imaginary Worlds. We want ours to have consistent lore, and inherent logic. That's all. All the good ones do.

    I've always seen it myself as Earth > Thunder > Water > Fire > Ice > Wind > Earth.

    I don't see thunder doing much to earth. Lightning bolt hits the ground...that's about it. Now put that shock in some water and we're cooking. Haha. Course water puts out the fire. Fire melts the ice. I really can't say so much for ice and wind. Would take a lot of wind to try to melt ice, but really could just help water freeze over faster? And the destruction a tornado can do to earth is quite powerful. :3

    Let's not fool ourselves, Starlord. It's not like you don't have strong opinions about the game, or that you don't express them vehemently. And all kudos to you for that. I will still reserve my right to disagree with you, and that doesn't make me a bad person.

    Why would the change of pronoun in that sentence make what I said wrong?

    Do you think greater people than us didn't want as individuals what their environments also wanted. Is wanting what you consider to be a decent idea to win over those you perceive as bad ones, in an environment you care about, such a bad thing. I don't feel you think that: Look, you're doing the same.

    As a matter of fact, in a few places of this world, we have political systems based around that very concept. It can be messy but it tends to work better than its alternatives. I'm not going to apologize for fighting for what I see fit. I'm intelligent enough to produce good ideas. As I'm sure you are. Let's just have a conversation.

    When making an Opinion, saying "we" isn't the really best word to say on a Forum.. then you get the: "Who's this we, you mean YOU want it to be this way" type phrases. But now your starting to become a Lecturer which I don't want at the present time so have fun doing what you do best!

    In that "we " I wanted to include those other people, starting with the OP, that had argued for a fix of the limping elemental structure (as we perceive it) both in this thread and elsewhere. I was merely trying to defend our perception... In an earlier post on this thread, I had referred to other players and opinions and I wanted to continue in a pluralistic attitude that didn't do exactly what you're accusing me of doing. Make it about myself.

    Anyway, you're right... I'm going to finish my BRD AF questline.
