And I advise whoever wins that dollar to . . .

Shameless.
And thx for telling me what BoEF stands for. Sometimes you just have a brain fart at the end of a long day.
Agreed 100%. That first post was rubbish.
Frankly, the BOEF was garbage and is EXACTLY the kind of product that content owners make license restrictions for--they dont want their brand affiliated with total crap. So the fact that there is a license that interfers with BOEF means the license is working correctly.
As for the d20 STL ending, all content/branding licenses have the chance to end. You always have to deal with that. In this case, they let you scrub off the logo and keep selling the stuff. That is MORE than reasonable. And the current license has a 6 month sell-off period. Again, more than reasonable.
Anyone who wants to hate on Wizards for the terms of the license simply doesnt use licenses. This stuff isnt particularly objectionable and any objection to it for those reasons is unreasonable.
Not everyone's a prude and recoils at the concept of adult content in D&D.
When I was active with the RPGA I remember a scenario getting revamped due to its "objectionable content" of some kid being the victim of a cult.
Have you read Necromancer material?
Maybe Clark's problem is just that he doesn't like the quality of BoEF, rather than the topic?
(Note: I've never read BoEF all the way through, just skimmed it. I'm not saying it is or isn't good. I'm saying that just because he thinks Book X is garbage, it doesn't necessarily follow that he objects to the topic of Book X.)
Are you posting about River of Blood by Erik Mona? I remember running that. Great fun but the subject needed to be treated in a certain delicate fashion if younger players were involved.
Yep. I was one of the original LG Triads; ran that one and untold others... Not really sure how delicate you need to be. If they're old enough to play, they are killing and being killed - "oh no some kids got killed" is probably nothing not adequately depicted in art on their school notebooks.
