[QUOTE="TheAngryDM, post: 6051827, member: 93931"] Angry here. As a small business accountant working in NYS, I can almost guarantee that TSR Hobbies, Inc. simply has not been removed from the state records. NYS Dept. of State is very, very bad about clearing defunct entities. I run into it ALL THE TIME. Especially with a corporation from another state. This whole thing smacks of paranoia. There is no reason to suspect this is a scam. The guy publishes another magazine, his address is legitimate, and he has a background in gaming you can find on the internet fairly easily. Why entertain the possibility that he's not actually getting set to publish some sort of old-school tribute to D&D gaming? There's caution and skepticism, then there's witch hunting. This is the latter. Now, you might feel it is disingenuous to use the TSR or Gygax name even if it is legal and legit. But knowing nothing about it, I think its a little early to make that call. I mean, we let whole game systems get away with basically republishing entire rule sets as retroclones. Has anyone just signed up for the info? Has anyone e-mailed the guy and politely expressed an interest in his plans and asked for information? This is rapidly approaching torch-and-pitchfork here people. We're better than this. [/QUOTE]
