[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 9103571, member: 6801228"] Ah yes, I forgot. Assuming the competence of a family-owned business from a Fortune 500 company that runs multiple of the most successful brands on the planet (little things, like Transformers, My Little Pony, GI Joe, Power Rangers, Dungeons and Dragons) is just blind faith in super geniuses! I mean, you do REMEMBER that WoTC is owned by Hasbro, right? And is currently their most successful brand?

Stop and think about this. You post on the internet. Are you trying to tell me you have never once before seen someone misunderstand something that someone else wrote?
