[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7179661, member: 7006"] Yeah, and there were metric tons of people saying that what they had to pay for DDI was absurd as well. So your complaints about the price are no more valid or invalid as anyone else's. ;) The thing that makes me roll me eyes me in all of this are the people who are TRYING to act all self-righteous when they make statements like because of the pricing, WotC is creating a "culture" of piracy. That they don't WANT to pirate anything... that they'd LIKE to be reasonable and pay a reasonable price... but WotC is basically FORCING people to pirate their materials because they won't release them for a reasonable price. You know what? Just shut the hell up. If you want to pirate the material because you want the material in the format for which you want them material, THEN JUST DO IT. Grow a pair and pirate it. Take what you want in the manner you want it. But don't then turn around and act like some southern belle waving a fan in front of her face saying "Oh my goodness, I'm so FLUSH!" because you want us to not think bad about you for doing it because heavens to be it's not YOUR fault you did it! You HAD to do it because it was the only way! You behaved poorly because it's the CULTURE that WotC has created! You'd NEVER behave in such an uncouth manner ordinarily, but this time you had NO CHOICE! WotC won't be REASONABLE! Just stop. All of you sound like idiots when you use that as the reason why your opinion that the price should be lower is the correct one. Again, your opinions are no more valid or invalid as anyone else's. So if you want PDFs or any other D&D crap and don't want to pay what these companies charge, then just pirate the material and accept the fact you are stealing it. Accept it, become okay with it, and stop trying to bullschtick us. [/QUOTE]
