[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 7776990, member: 6796661"] For me the comparison holds. Increasingly there are bars/pubs, coffee shops, community centers, and libraries that host gaming groups. With Meetup.com's deal with WeWork, turnkey/coworking office space facilities are becoming reasonable venues for game groups. Many include gaming libraries where you can borrow a game and play it for free. I've been to many FLGS where I'm unable to go and play a game. My impression of most FLGS is less selection and higher prices than online, limited gaming space that is always taken up by the core gamers that seem to always be there, and no (or vending-machine poor) food and drink to keep me there even if there were a table available. But I don't want to hijack this thread further. There are other threads where the importance of FLGS has been debated. [B]REGARDING THE ORIGINAL TOPIC OF THIS THREAD:[/B] As for Chinese censorship, I'm not a fan of any censorship, including Canadian and European censorship that would be unconstitutional in the USA. Whether that means I should only ethically print books and games in the USA, would be interesting to debate. But putting that aside for now, if you are business contracting with businesses in other countries, it behooves you to understand the rules and regulations that could affect your business. One would like to think that the company that you are working with would help you with this, but they could very well be willing look the other way to get the business, hoping that it will go undiscovered by the authorities. You should at least make sure that your contract covers this situation, shifting the burden of following local laws and regulations on the printer. It seems that the OP's company got their money back, which is good. Selecting a company in another company that has a good track record is important. They will not want to harm their reputation by screwing over their customer in a situation like this. [/QUOTE]
