I have to respect your outspokenness.
I would just like to remind you that WOTC is a business. Businesses are out to make money, whether they are mom and pops, or corporations. If they're not out to make money, then they won't stay in business for long, because they will fall to those who are. Now anyone who says a business is not out to please the people how is it they can make money if they're not making the greater majority of their customers happy and staying out of small customer niches? WOTC is at the top of the food chain because they've done a lot of things right over the years. And ever since they were bought out by HASBRO, they have had to produce profit or get downsized. This last year and a half, they lost perspective, not on the customer, but on proper money-making business, because in their effort to please the customer, they forgot to pay attention to a few necessary business practices, including: 1) pacing their budget, 2) pacing changes to the product, and 3) controlling the number of major projects in motion.
In short, yes, WOTC is out to make money. No question about it. However, if they were out to make money at the expense of the customer, I don't think we would have seen any cost-cutting measures reflected in the cost to the customer.
