Speeding up battles

Why would this be a bad idea, if it's an option that can be turned on and off at will? If you, or anyone else, didn't want to use it you wouldn't have to. I fail to understand the mindset that says having fewer options is better ...

If you want that you should play pen and paper D&D, IMHO.

Easier said than done. First, such games cannot be played solo. Second, gathering a group of players, when you are older and no longer in a college crowd, is very difficult to do. Things such as work, family, etc. tend to interfere with gameplaying.
