Limited PvP -> PvE Free Character Transfers
Mythic+ Dungeon Adjustments - 27 April
Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?
Season 4... Just old dungeons and new ilvl?
MMO-Champion
Lets make the youngest of them age 18. Which incidentally was James Monroe's age, Alexander Hamilton was 21, Thomas Jefferson was 33, Ben Franklin was 70 etc. (at the time of the declaration signing)
What kind of people do you think they would be if they were essentially born in this day and age? So Hamilton and Monroe would have been born in the 90s and Jefferson in the 80s, etc, for example. (You are not limited to my examples)

unless fate itself has a hand in what type of people they became, they'd probably be the same braindead retards the majority of people this age are.
i highly doubt they'd be worth half as much.

Ben is my man. There is no other founding father but that man.

I guess you're a product of your time.
Franklin would be running some click bait blog. Jefferson would be a professor at some community college, hitting on the black girls..

Franklin would be a sort of anti-Rupert Murdoch cum Elon Musk-Warren Buffet, running (among his many, many enterprises) a Daily-Show style multimedia conglomerate with vast reach, destroying the government and establishment with pithy wit.

They'd wonder what the fuck they'd fought for in the first place.

They would all be hated, as the strait, white, Christian males that they are.

Disappointed.
My education wasn't US-centric, so can't say I know too much about them, but from what I've read of their writings they seemed like some very smart men. Knowledgeable about politics and the risks involved.

They would have been nothing at all like what they were back then. Probably just another face in the crowd of smart phones.

I pretty much agree with this. Madison would have been a well meaning senator who wouldn't ever be able to get anything through Congress. Originally Posted by ringpriest

He had a longstanding romance with one of his slaves. It's well documented. Originally Posted by ringpriest

Almost positive 90% of forum users here would hate them if they actually were the same as from back then.
