Op, it kind of sounds like you're objecting to the fact that he's talking to other people, in conversations you're not involved in [possibly even in his shop from how you phrased some things], and expressing his opinion about 4 ed. Which, in turn, makes it sound like you think he shouldn't express it simply because you happen to be nearby during this location which...is honestly not really cool, imo.

The rthing is just...well. It's his opinion and he's allowed to express that in conversations he has. You don't have to agree with it, you don't have to like it, you don't even have to like where/when he expresses it - but you do need to respect that he's allowed to it.

Not if the opinion that he has is wrong, unfounded, simplistic, and insulting. Like, if he's doing the fairly typical "4th edition is just dumb babby MMO shit that only babbies play" edition war stuff, that's... not necessarily an opinion you "just have to respect", I don't think. Because it's wrong and unfounded and simplistic. If he's making grounded, specific critiques, certainly, I think that's reasonable and you have to respect that. But I don't think you have to respect his right to bloviate with whatever empty, unfounded memes about how only idiots play 4th edition and it's not REAL D&D for no adequately identified reason. I think OP is perfectly right to be bothered by it if the guy makes a habit of letting loose with those kinds of opinions.

[I'm the OP] - Most of the time, when I hear this sort of thing I'm directly involved in the conversation - RPG discussions usually involve me as a matter of course. Even when I'm not, though, it gets on my nerves because, like I said, there's ways he can phrase it that don't involve the dumb edition war shit.
