For starters, I have spent loads of time in group writing projects, both academically and creatively (screenplays, scripts and the like). I have also been gaming for the better part of two decades. Though I am, by no means, a game designer i do feel my personal experience in these matters is of some use.
It is never, never, a good idea to modify a system based on the lowest common denominator (in this case a munchkin or min/maxer or power gamer or the like). those type of people will always find a way to twist, turn and manipulate the game.
To design the game with fringe goofballs in mind is a bad route and one I, thankfully, don't foresee the design team taking.
And, any class can be munchkin-maxed by a skilled player or made cumbersome by a unskilled player.
Period.
If you have nothing better to do than complain for the sake of complaining because "it's your right" or "you can't tell me what to do" or whatever then, well, more power to you. Really. Yippee for you.
Don't expect to be taken seriously be professional designers or respectful and thoughtful players who are here to contribute to a game they love and are passionate about.
I'm sure the goofballs here are passionate also, but seriously dudes, stop with the internet tough guy garbage.
If you wouldn't say something to another person face to face don't type it out that way on a board.
And, really, if you would say it to someone on hear face to face like a jerk then you are, probably, not going to be respected or taken seriously in the first place. really, take your ball and go home. You are helping nothing but your own misplaced sense of self importance.
Seriously, Hulu just put up "The Greatest American Hero" this week. Wouldn't watching that be way more fun than being Jerky Jerkerson on a message board.
