It's not up to us, I realize now, as the rest should in suit. It's up to who your friend is, and what he wants from his plastic.

It's true. I didn't have a very strong opinion on this topic when I started reading this thread, but as I progressed along the posts, the arrogance that is bred by the anonymity of posting some topic on a forum and hiding behind an avatar led me to begin taking a side to the point that I began to get upset at certain posters because they "wouldn't see reason" when in reality, who friggin' cares? The OP knows his friend best, he was just asking for some advice on how other players would go about doing it! In the end it's going to be his call, and I don't know why this has devolved into a debate when at the end of the day, everyone is going to keep their original opinions and emotions are going to get involved. But we loves ourselves some mud flinging, I guess...
