| I dunno much about the recent era's. I mostly read a little of avengers and spidey and do not know what to read to get the right impression and knowledge. So with RSE. To read novels to understand them completely...*sigh* I got tired of that a little. |

A suggestion, Sage: Include in the CC the RSEs from all editions. Perhaps dividing them into minor and major.

I've actually been thinking about that, along with a host of other updates for the Code of Conduct.
Strangely, I've got a number of definitions for an RSE in my oft-quoted Candlekeep's Guide to Forgotten Realms FAQ. 
Well, you could solicit aid from some scribes to come up with a 'holistic' or most appropriate definition. |

| It's a touchy topic. Difficult to define the concept of RSE in neutral language. |

Maybe because you haven't read the right novels. You might have come across those pesky ones that don't only elicit boredom but sheer annoyance as well. |

| I enjoyed the Year of Rogue Dragons and the Threat from the Sea |
If I waited till I knew what I was doing, I'd never get anything done.

Is that a big deal?! Right. I edited it back to its original, wonderful state. |

Oh, that would make almost every event in the Realms an RSE. |

Sometimes. Usually I do not point that out, but no one usually does that. |

| I noticed many scribes like the YoRD. Strangely, it's one of the RSEs to which I am kinda apathetic. I don't detest it, but I don't like it either. Have I missed something? |

Well, not every event. The flushing of Szass's toilet isn't an RSE, nor is King Azoun's sudden allergy to Moonsea-imported Tanarrifish an RSE. But yup, pretty much everything else is RSE.  |

| Having read The Captive Flame, I think the war among the eastern nations is an RSE. There's not much development yet in the book, but I suppose there'd be in Whisper of Venom, which unfortunately I haven't yet read. |
