Thank you Azzy. Nice post. Perhaps I should have been more clear. It is unfortunate how easy it is for people, even if the same gaming tribe, to quickly turn to outrage on boards like this.It looks like a couple posters didn't get that memo.
Eh, I started in 86, so I'm not significantly younger than you. I have pleny of nostalgia for the D&D of yesteryear, many of the old products, and even for TSR itself (even if it were post-Gygax). I still don't understand the sentimentality over a domain name, but I guess everyone's got their thing.
I didn’t think I’d care about the URL either. Perhaps it’s failing was a symbolic end of TSR for me and caused some morning inside me I didn’t know I had. For me 1978 and my very first game still feels like just yeasterday due to the immersive nature of the game.
Your started with 2E, I assume. I still covent my magic item (Ecyclopia Magica) and spell compendium paperback volumes they published near the end of 2E. Completly comprehensive. Wish other editions had them.
