[QUOTE="The Sigil, post: 911755, member: 2013"] [B] Thank you for 'splainin' yourself, Johnny. But I'll throw one complaint into the hat that has nothing to do with business decisions such as this... [i]Did we really need a comic that depicts someone flipping the bird?[/i] It's this kind of thing that I perceive as lowering the value of Dungeon... to be honest, the comic has, to me, been a complete and utter waste of space. Not funny, not useful, not even well-drawn, and, well, tasteless and offensive to boot. Now, I found Hijinks as useless as the next person, but I can see that some people enjoy one-offs. Heck, I've enjoyed one-offs in the past. So that's not an issue to me. For me, it's a larger issue with Paizo going for the cheap shock, the low-brow humor, the tasteless gag, and abandoning any pretension of what I consider a professional standard in printing. And I'm pretty sure I'm in the MINORITY on that one, but it is my opinion and I am entitled to it. I will let you run your business as you feel you need to, and I will continue to vote with my wallet. Dungeon - and Dragon - have long since become something that I not only find unusable, but that I find pandering to the lowest common denominator and offensive. And again, I'm in the minority, but it's my opinion - take it for what it's worth (1/Nth of your revenue stream, where N is the number of subscribers). --The Sigil[/b] [/QUOTE]
