| I have no other answer to the doom and gloom. What could I possibly say?
If Ryan himself is saying the Hobby is in real danger of collapse, in a Death Spiral, that is a truly dark pronouncement, and perhaps the state of things is truly dark.
What could I possibly say to mitigate the darkness? What can I do to lighten things in any way?
This is the only answer I can think of.
Laugh at the darkness, laugh at the gloom, decry a different and better outcome, take a stance for the positive.
Laugh at the grim situation, even if it is grim and everything may fall apart. What else can we do?
Thus:
D&D's Army!
By declaring that, and placing down my signature, Edena_of_Neith, I hurl laughter at the grim situation, and I give my salute to those in our Hobby, and I assert that a better future is in store for our Hobby, than the one that is so widely perceived to be fated.
Call it a shout of optimism. Call it mocking the doom and gloom. Call it asserting that a better future is to come.
Come and join in. | 
And yet another word from our sponsors
