Thank you! That is a great project and you have done excellent work!

?????????? Oh ok, I get it, a weak attempt to insult me. By all means try again.

Why should stating an absolute truth of the real world insult anyone? And if someone doesn't happen to believe the truth, why is it an insult to point that out? I do not understand your statement. You say post reported. ???? You are upset because I don't subscribe to the position that anyone...

All people are inherently bad, some strive to rise above it and some don't. Some travel the path of evil past the point of no return and anyone that molests children has passed the point of no return by the time they have reached the point where they take action on those perverted desires.

This is an excellent point. The truth is there is an absolute right and wrong, good and evil. No one that denies this can be taken seriously, since it is the fundamental rule 0 of our universe. The majority of people in the world embrace a relativistic world view, and subscribe to the view that...

It was not working last night, but it is working today. Gotta have that search function! ;)

Now that I have paid to be a community supporter, how do I access the paid member goodies and how long does it take before they become active?

Hi Gary, I was wondering, how deadly do you consider the game to be when you are the ref? Also along the same lines did you ever look at any of the Arduin books? I play OD&D and sometimes OAD&D but I use everything and anything I can get my hands on as grist for the idea mill. After nearly 36...

Ah!! As someone new, I did not know about the thread tools, I had only seen the check block at the bottom of a new post as you made it. Thank you!!!

POD and its use is in its infancy. It has just barely gotten started, and it is the future and major publishers will be the last to really adopt it to any extent. I do not have any conspiracy theories, that is an unjustified assumption on your part. However, since as someone else noted above and...

I disagree completely with you and the facts support my position. There is no point in responding further to the bulk of your post so I will not. As for you calling my arguement counterintuitive, I acknowledge your difficulty. In the example as you word it above, I would expect any reasonably...

The fixed cost is very mininal when you go to POD technology. Because of POD this arguement is no longer a valid one. With existing product you have a one time setup cost for it to go POD and that is the end of the fixed cost. As far as trusting corporations :lol: lets start with Enron and go...

The correct answer is also not (1) either. They have not determined anything, they have just made a decision and there is no evidence available to any of us that it has anything to do with profitablity and with POD technology it doesnt take much to generate profits on existing products that you...

That is true, but in most of those cases the one for sale is the original one, that I bought back in the 60's or 70's and bought a new copy of in the 90's or since.

Is it possible to subscribe to a thread without posting to it? If not, why not? Is it possible to subscribe to archived threads for quick access to the thread? Again, if not, why not? Thank you!

That is where we differ, I do hold it against WotC/Hasbro for not keeping them in print and for not bringing them back into print. (And yes, that is a notable exception to what is available in pdf.) The easy way to make money on OD&D with POD would be to do for OD&D & the supplements what was...

You are missing the point. The point is that they are keeping many many old games in print for one simple reason, it is making them money. If it is working for them on those old games, there is every reason to believe that it would work for them on other old games.

I was not aware that there were any comments from a moderator being directed my way. I was also not aware that I was not permitted to reply in kind. As far as "toning down the rhetoric, I have already severely self - censored my posts in reply to some pretty nasty comments to the tune of several...

Get out and go to the stores today, look around. Right now Hasbro is selling every old game you can think of. The idea that it makes sense for D&D to be the one exception to Hasbros business practice with their other products, does not make sense to me. Virtually every other game that I own has...

I was a steady paying customer from 1971 up until 3E was published, then I was rudely shown the door by WotC and was told by their actions and decisions that I and my money were no longer welcome. What is not to understand about this????? WotC took the customer base of TSR & T$R and told us in...
