[QUOTE="Gorrstagg, post: 4743348, member: 15863"] I'm going to be blunt as a customer. They can take their ball away from other companies, that's fine and its totally within their rights. I'm not even getting into that aspect, from a perspective of whom they hurt as a result of this action on the reseller's end. Those companies agreed to some contract that apparently allows this choice to occur. Fine, that is their perogative. (Yes it obviously affects me as a customer of RPGNOW or what not, and I now no longer have my 4 downloads due to catastrophic incidents. But that's another story.) My complaint. They are getting rid of a modern version of our game. I do NOT want to lug around 10 frakking books anymore. Or as it's slowly turning out, another book each month. They even used it as a Major sales option. (As presented in that 4E release youtube video a page or so ago.) And I really bought into it. I'm gung-ho on .pdf's. But don't yank it away and not provide me a real method for buying them. Let me buy it and stop trying to punish ME. I didn't pirate, and as everyone who's got any lick of sense will tell you, the only people you've harmed is the just. The unjust are not going to stop. They won't be deterred. And you've taken away a method for your actual customers. The people who pay your wages, with our hard earned money in this economy. Stop being boneheaded. Learn how to do business in an ethical manner. Stop treating me as a criminal. I'm not going to boycott you, at this time. This is the game in one form or another I've been playing for 26 years. I want you to look at a calender, notice the year, and stop. Realize that almost everything is digital now. Book on .pdf's. Get back in the game, and sell them ASAP. And I mean there needs to be a legal option that isn't intrusive to my using of the products in question and it should be available by the time Arcane Power is to be released. And Jeff Leed's, really, really needs to take a good close look at the havoc that's been caused by this gunshot to the head reaction, they've taken. We are your customers. Once we get past the boycott histrionics, look at us. We give you money. Give us your product in the method and manner we want. Realize your excuse of fighting pirates is so ephemereal, that no one is buying it. A pirate doesn't take money out of your hand. They weren't going to buy it. But taking a method of purchase out of our hands. IS money out of your hand. This choice was not rational. [/QUOTE]
