[QUOTE="Morrus, post: 7659733, member: 1"] I've always maintained that the sight of a vibrant fan community creating stuff for your game is something that many game designers and companies would give an arm and a leg for. This is what you want: it's people embracing and playing the game with public and open enthusiasm. It's a wonder to behold, and something to be hung on to. As a whole I think WotC does a good job at that. There are hundreds of blogs and sites producing homebrew material for 5E. Sure, the quality varies, but that's not the point. There's a dynamic, creative fan community surrounding this game unlike that seen since the early days of 3.x. I think WotC should be applauded for not interfering with that. Then, occasionally, out of those hundreds and hundreds of things, they'll ask someone to stop doing doing something. It's happened about a half dozen times. The question, then, is what is it about those half dozen things that prompted this? What makes them different? What behaviour exactly is it that WotC doesn't want? Automation? Trademark usage? Content distribution? My guess is the latter. I wish these folks would share the C&Ds so we all didn't have to guess. [/QUOTE]
