[QUOTE="Saracenus, post: 8510293, member: 47839"] Except that every beach house isn't owned by a "rich psychopath." When my family owned a beach house we were neither rich or psychopaths. We were solidly middle class and by the rules of the game (AKA State rental laws) we could not day rent it very much and we could only get down to it about every three weeks. That 2nd house was a mental health lifeline for my overworked parents that were raising three kids. It was an oasis that my family used strengthen our family bond and get away from the rat race that was 80s and 90s capitalism. So, your squatting in that "rich" guys place which you have justified by denying their humanity and sanity is in actuality now a nightmare for people like my family (court costs, stress, denial of our own mental well being). But lets get real about your "metaphor," the "rich psychopath" to which you speak I will assume is WotC/Hasbro and it is ok to squat on their property because reasons. But the reality is NuTSR took over the "beach house" of gent (Jayson Elliot, sorry I had forgotten his name, thank you @[URL='https://www.enworld.org/goto/post?id=8508685']Mannahnin[/URL] for posting earlier about him) who was running TSR 2.0 (someone who was neither rich or a psychopath) because he forgot to re-register the TSR trademark and thus his passion project was taken away by opportunists that [B]were not [/B]sticking it to "[B][I]The Man[/I][/B] [B](tm)[/B]." Nope, they are using that "beach house" they are now squatting in to run a two-bit criminal enterprise and claim they are Robin Hood. Unfortunately for them (and fortunately for the rest of us) they are attempting to steal from WotC who is quite capable and willing to crush them like the insects they are (yes, I am denying LaNassa's and Ernie Gygax's humanity, ironic, isn't it). But to each their own. [/QUOTE]
