What?

You are being absurd - that is not what I was saying, nor what I was implying. Next time <i>read and <b>comprehend</b></i> what someone is claiming before you start putting words in their mouths. I never said that there shouldn't be rules or numbers - because I hate systems that do that kind of thing. I like rules, keeps it a game. But in a non-combat situation there is <i><b>less</i></b> need for <i>complex</i> rules. I never once said that you don't need any rules, just that they don't need to be a complicated nor the focus of the scene.

Get your facts right next time. Because I did find what you said offensive.
