[QUOTE="The Sigil, post: 254312, member: 2013"] [b]Point taken...[/b] It's a point well taken, Morrus... However, I would point out that there are two other things for a "publisher" to consider... 1.) If you only accept original content directly from the copyright holder (e.g., only Green Ronin can submit stuff from Green Ronin books), that helps cut down errors a lot. 2.) The OGL provides you a 30-day window to "fix" any breach of the terms (e.g., publishing PI). Now, I think it's possible that someone who obviously and maliciously posts PI again and again probably won't be safe from a lawsuit, unless I am mistaken, someone who makes an honest, good-faith mistake has 30 days to take it out once he's notified. In my case, that just means "uncheck the okay box" in the database. Not too bad, all things considered. There are a LOT of issues to be considered, but I really think that with a dose of common sense and a little forethought, such a project really is easily within the scope of reality. --The Sigil [/QUOTE]
