[QUOTE="Kalidrev, post: 5201288, member: 84005"] With as many times as I have seen (and wanted) to change an aspect of my own characters after new material has come out, I think this is a fantastic option. However, (and this is an edit of my vote), SG brings up a very good point about power creep for no cost. I think that if this proposal should pass, it should have a modification that says that items can only be exchanged for other items of equal level or lower [COLOR=Red]in the same slot[/COLOR]. As for KD's argument... it is what we, in the logic world, would call a Slippery Slope, and is, unfortunately, an informal fallacy of logic. There is nothing specifically and logically connecting the pieces of the puzzle that KD was putting together that would result in a conclusion stating that "If this proposal is passed...then a proposal to allow the player to change the race of the PC at a revision will occur." However, even with that stated... KD was simply trying to make and emphasize a point (and that point is dually noted :) ) EDIT: Ahh! I was logic ninja'd by SG! Nice one oh mighty god of stone! I can, and will, however, counter KD's logical argument by saying that even if KD's logical assumption was realized, and the passing of this proposal were to cause others to create more proposals, it does not logically follow that those proposals will necessarily pass. I do not believe that any of the judges here would vote yes to a proposal that would allow a player to change his class or race on any/every level up revision. I think small changes like a single power, a feat, etc are perfectly balanced within the system, however, SG's comments are making me think that the exchange of magic items may not be a great idea. I'm going to think on this a bit more... [/QUOTE]
