DSM is actually right about a lot of things. He is situationally a good source of information. There are a few things that he is just flat wrong on (hey none of us are perfect) … and several other things he is highly opinionated but are subjective (ie regen vs FSI). Especially with FSI … that one can be a matter of opinion. If you truly value that FSI … it may be a thing you’re willing to sacrifice regen for … and that’s ok as long as you know what you’re giving up.
The big problem is that whatever his opinion is, he digs in fully and is incapable of abstract thought. Beyond that, incredibly condescending.
DSM threads end up being about a fairly narrow range of topics - generally relating to shamans, SKs, and his personal preferences as it relates to race/class combos.
Narrow-mindedness, lack of humility, and a warped view of the scientific method are the issue.
