[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 7676674, member: 1"] Those are not WotC's only options. There's the third option, the one they take - don't engage with the fans because this happens. And that's a worse situation for all of us. There's a reason there's that saying "don't read the comments!" This isn't "negative feedback"; it's people calling Jeremy Crawford a liar about something as trivial as a definition of a word. It's not reasonable behaviour by any metric. To be honest, I regret reporting on the tweet, and feel sorry for the man. He was only making an impromptu comment on Twitter - something he may now be less inclined to do. WotC may be a company. The people we're directly discussing are human people, and members of our very small niche community. You're not at war with them. Not everything has to be phrased in combative terms. Maybe the mistake was mine, writing a quick news article about it. I thought it would be interesting to share their PoV on the relationship. And I think it's disingenuous to pretend the word "outsourcing" doesn't come with its own set of baggage which goes far beyond any dictionary definition. Quoting dictionaries is not the way to win any points in this discussion, as it completely misses the point. And yes, I know I'm spitting into a hurricane. People will do what they want to do, and that's what they want to do, I guess. [/QUOTE]
