[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9574716, member: 18"] Exactly this. This wasn't just some open-minded attempt to get feedback, this was dropping a terrifying contract on people, and whether they could sign it or not is kind of immaterial, because it was a declaration of intent, and it was an absolutely insane declaration and insane intent. I think some people have already forgotten quite how totally demented it was. It wasn't slightly off, or "a bit questionable". It was absolutely certifiable. Are we going to have to dredge up the details again? Mike is sort of playing this as it if it was just a bit dubious, but he gets how stupid the GSL was, and this was frankly more actually-demented than the GSL, more about control and interference and so on. The GSL was just nasty in that it was ludicrous limited - a terrible deal as he correctly says - the new OGL was a bad deal and full of weird and unnecessary attempts at control. [/QUOTE]
