Oh dear. This is the second post I've looked at since waking up. I hope it's an outlier among last night's discussions.
I think I said only yesterday that insulting in the teasing, joshing way that can work amongst friends (which I'm charitably assuming is what Rag was going for) generally just comes across as rude online and should be avoided.
I would also suggest a new poll couched in more neutral language so we can actually see what people think without putting backs up. I'd be very interested in the results, as I admit just how much people object to respeccing has caught me by surprise. I've never given it much thought in games before, so getting the different perspectives here is, as always, interesting even when I don't ultimately change my mind.
