Considering the verbal abuse the FAQ has gotten on this site, I thought I would speak up. While I may not agree with some of the FAQ postings, I do appreciate that they take the time and effort to answer their fan's questions.

It is very handy to have a one stop place to at least get an opinion on a rules question. Since it is a game, I'm under no obligation to use the FAQ, but it does help clarify things. At the very least, it gives me an opportunity to blow off work for a few minutes and read the ranting and raving of dumpshock rules lawyers.

So if you like the FAQ, give a shout out to the writers, and maybe they'll keep updating it.
