If your opponent counts a cocked dice roll as something other than just another roll to decide it (not counting as a re-roll as there was no original outcome.)
Then something else has a problem with being cocked and its not the dice.

Your "shaming on the haters" isn't really any more constructive than the posts you criticized.

Because its pointless. Let's have an academic discussion on paint drying, with variables being the viscosity, air temperature, and color of the paint. Just because you can have a discussion on something, doesn't mean you should.
Does that mean that people discussing paint drying should receive hate? If you don't want to talk about it, then surely a better solution would be just to not talk about it?
Note to the reader: my username is not arrogance. No, my name is taken from the most excellent of commanders: Lord Castellan Creed, of the Imperial Guar- I mean Astra Militarum - who has a special rule known only as "Tactical Genius"... Although nowhere near as awesome as before, it now allows some cool stuff for the Guar- Astra Militarum - player. FEAR ME AND MY TWO WARLORD TRAITS.
