If you don't like the way that the Sylvan cabal is, then you have two choices: 1) Don't play a Sylvan, play one of their enemies and crush them into the floor. Find an horribly overpowered combo (Do you remember Rendak dying a whole lot? Yeah, there are many scarier things than Sylvan Shamans) and kick the crap out of them. Bitching on the forum will get absolutely NOTHING accomplished. 2) Play a Sylvan and try to turn the cabal around, or at least try to get some sort of perspective on things. People complain that Sylvan Shamans outnumber Sylvan Druids. Why don't you complaining people roll up some Sylvan Druids then? Whose fault is it that nobody is playing Sylvan Druids? We all know that they are an incredibly powerful class. There are two Sylvan Shamans at this moment. That isn't a whole lot. The only person that I feel knows what's going on and has actually made a constructive complaint is Flontinot. Everyone else thought it would be a good idea to just jump on the bandwagon and complain stuff they know next to nothing about. At this moment in time, the Sylvan cabal happens to be very, very strong. Then again, the Master cabal has two liches and a very, very strong showing at almost all times. Do the Warders tend to get spanked by the Masters from time to time? Hell yeah... Yet nobody complains about the Masters and the grossly overpowered Master Conjurer. Instead they bitch about the Sylvans and the Sylvan Shaman. This is probably because there's more of a history of complaints about Sylvans, and not because they really are half as horrid as you'd think. The roleplaying in the cabal is really superb, and the effort put into all of the characters is pleasantly surprising. Sylvan's just damned lucky right now to have so many smart and imaginitive players. Master shares this luck, obviously. Finally, all you people that complain just for the sake of complaining, or complain just so you can feel good about yourself for "finding a conspiracy" or trying to accuse people that really do try hard of not roleplaying, don't post here about it. Imbrogno, this means you :P Though I'm probably lying to you all by saying this, this will be my last post on this subject.
