I did read the thread and it spoke to the issues of me defending Gygax and getting pilloried for it on these boards. I am glad it was covered and my observation stands. You may be dismissive of it but I am happy for the vindictatiin. As a general rule people don’t apologize three times to others...
Actually many of the old D&D team felt that WOTC shafted them. Weis and Hickman sued them in court to get them to honor their book deal. Professor Dungeon Master said he felt insulted and made a video about it and the TSR apology also.
