I'm also totally stunned by the lack of professionalism and,
IMO, hypocrisy from some in this thread. They really seem to enjoy putting the screws to "the man", taking this from professional disagreement to a dedication to shame individuals and their employer in public as much as possible.
Fine. I've also made some notes of who has said what, in this thread and others. They won't have my support as a customer, even if they're a contributor for a product of another publisher. You drag the hobby down. It's one thing to be understandably skeptical, but some here are just
over the top. I bet that neither Scott nor Lidda nor a single employee at
WOTC have ever been so rude, in such a personal fashion, to their colleagues in this industry as some here have been to them.
You should keep in mind that as "indie" (or small company) publishers, writers and designers, you are marketing youselves with every post you make. As far as I'm concerned, some in this thread blundered far more in the past day or so than
WOTC has all year. Hope it was worth it to you.
OTOH, others are showing real class under the circumstances. I bet your enthusiasm and professionalism carry through to your products. I've noted that too, and I look forward to purchasing them.
And yet another word from our sponsors
