Since in some "RPGs", all players do is powermax and not "roleplay", should we just call the game "Adventuring Game" instead of "RolePlaying Game"? - DarkMage139 ++++++++++++++++ I can do things, things you never knew, I can change your world if you only knew.

Why bother? If you''re nit-picking, you really don''t have any "adventures" in these games either. A name change will just confuse the public. A paradigm change is much more appropriate.
