[ANOTHER FLAME WAR] Are dragons overpowered or not?

Greetings to all the charming people in this thread! *whacked everyone with a banhammer and climbed onto my favorite birch tree with apples*

This would explain a lot, but it seems I understand it anyway.
And what, do you ban everyone for disagreeing, whoever happens to be in the crosshairs? I've seen a couple of ban-happy people, and they usually don't bother to understand. They just dismiss and send away those who are unhappy.

Show me ONE person I've banned. Point your finger. Who did I ban? You? Arandor? Revan? Volk? And why are you still writing in this thread then? Don't you think what you said is absurd?
Okay, if you don't understand the meaning of the word "entertainment" and can't turn a semi-heated argument into a peaceful, friendly conversation, it's not my fault. I'll be as serious as a komodo dragon.

and about Kosh and her Banhammer, can't you understand the joke? Relax, it's just WoW)

Volk, you need to calm down. This person can't relax and takes every word seriously. I'm willing to bet they don't understand why we haven't argued yet and why, for example, I manage to maintain a perfectly peaceful relationship with Revan, despite all our disagreements and arguments. Be glad that you can distinguish a playful manner of communication from a serious one.

And now, ON THE TOPIC: In my opinion, "works" are not only literary. Above, I provided several drawings where dragons are shown from different perspectives. I don't deny that in some works, dragons are portrayed as cruel and evil creatures (I myself wrote something similar about dragons in a negative role when I was about 8-10 years old), but nevertheless, THERE ARE works where the winged ones are quite intelligent and often friendly. Maybe there aren't many of them, but nevertheless, they EXIST, and that's the main thing. Therefore, it should not be assumed that ALL dragons are the same, as one of our acquaintances is trying to do.
I can also give a few musical works as an example. Let's remember my favorite band, Melnitsa *I noticed out of the corner of my eye that Revan was quietly sneaking up with rotten tomatoes*. There is a perfectly classic dragon, sitting on a hoard. Is the ultimate dream achieved? Not quite!

I curse the accursed gold
For its treacherous glow of warmth.
I remember the one who once
Who once had wings,
She has long since died...

And this is said by a stupid monster, for whose complete happiness, all it needs is a mountain of treasures under its belly and a local princess in the attic? I don't believe it.

P.S. By the way, I just remembered Asprin and his Myth series. Gleep is a creature with the sweetest soul, as it turns out in one of the parts - quite intelligent, and in general, very friendly and playful.
