I remember back when I was in my teen levels or so, a baron was hanging out in Galadon at the bard's guild with me and another bard. We chatted and he doppled me, at which I expressed amazement. Then he gibberished the other bard, who got up in a huff and left. Then he gibberished me and tried his best to get me to talk, but I only used socials. I was rather hoping he'd be impressed and not gibberish me again when it wore off, but he did it before I could get a single sentence out. Oh well. I thought it was pretty funny, though. If you don't like gibberish, there's one simple thing you can do: take the equation. If you're not in a cabal, give it to the Arbiters. I'm sure they'd appreciate having it. And if you're low level, offer to help higher level Arbiters or people you think would be sympathetic to take it. And meanwhile, take a look over the new socials page. I think you'll find there's a lot more you can do than you ever would have guessed.
