#3) Exceptional Strength rules from Advanced D&D. All fighters needed 18 str to be usefull.

#4) D&D Second Edition. I became fluent in GURPS.

#5) D&D 3.5. I understand WotC likes money, but this was too blatent a cash grab. Third edition was a breath of fresh air that made D&D playable again. 3.5 is a successful pick pocket attempt.

#6 - Mordenkaines Disjunktion - Bye bye character wealth. Oh, and artifacts.

#7 - FR books that advertise with 100 new feats, 100 new prc etc. In the old days you got good content (history and backgrounds).
