[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 7647794, member: 9213"] Except that obviously to a fair amount of gamers it is different. I'll say this and it's not just limited to gamers, people in general dont appreciate or value the work that gets put into any endeavor unless IT'S THIER WORK or ENDEAVOR. It's not just artists and writers either. Look how easy it is for the average person to crap all over a book or movie that they dont like. Not even a BAD movie or book, just one that they dont like. They dont value that hundreds of people worked on the movie or that while the story may not be to their liking that the movie is shot well or the direction and pacing is spot on. NO. The first instinct is to crap all over it. I work in IT and I cant tell you the amount of time that the work that I do is taken for granted. And no your cousin cant do what I to fix your problem and neither can your kids. Because if they could? YOU WOULDN'T BE BOTHERING ME WITH THIS CRAP. Bottom line? People dont value the work and effort. I do. Which is why I dont mind paying for RPG's and RPG material that I want. Even when I get something for free if it's of quality? I value it as much as if I paid for it. If it's not of quality I simply dont accept it. [/QUOTE]
