Can nothing be said for "If you like it that way, enjoy yourself"?
Why does it have to come down to "You must not have a very good time at your game because you use miniatures and a battlemat, I'll bet your players have an awful time"? The selling point of the Pathfinder game system is that it can accomodate and appeal to varying groups of players with varying playstyles and varying experiences. Reading this thread has been rather disheartening for me, with so much condescension coming from the anti-mini side. Seems counterproductive for such a community-driven game.
