I have to admit that I am still rather P.O.'d about the magazines' cancellation, even if the uproar has calmed. Overall I think it is a bad decision by WotC... alienating a strong core audience of players, in a gamble to somehow grab the attentions of the younger (and more computer oriented) demographic. Too much trying to 'engineer' coolness... never seems to work. Coolness just happens.
It worked for White Wolf back in the Golden Age of Usenet. Forgot exactly what was said but it wasn't flattering to the population of whatever newsgroups got hit. Something like calling us "internet geeks" in a futile attempt to use some buzzwords.
