[QUOTE="Dannager, post: 6169849, member: 73683"] You have a personal relationship with the people who [I]work at[/I] Savage Worlds. But unless you have a personal relationship [I]with the company itself[/I] - which means you have a relationship that allows you a significantly higher amount of input on their business decisions than your average consumer - you still have little to no interaction with the company beyond your own purchasing decisions. This is it, precisely. You may be treated as a whole individual by other individuals working for the company in question, but to the company itself you are a consumer and nothing more. You do not have a relationship which entitles you to more influence in the company's business decisions than the next guy, and it issilly to react to those decisions as though you were personally betrayed, insulted, or offended. And, [I][B]on the flip side[/B][/I], it is equally silly to react to companies' business decisions with sentiments like, "They really understand me!" or "They finally listened to what I'd been telling them!"
