[QUOTE="Vyvyan Basterd, post: 585501, member: 4892"] Too many posters to quote... [b]1) Colonel Hardisson: There is NO reduction in content.[/b] Yes there is. Currently Dungeon/Poly is 160 pages per issue. Starting in May it will be 100 pages. That is a 37.5% reduction in content per issue. Oh, but they're lowering the price you say? Yeah, by 12.5%. Until Mr. Wilson clarifies, I am now not to receive 21 160-page issues from May 2003 to October 2006 (or 3,360 pages) as agreed at time of subscription. I am now to receive 12 125-page issues (the 125% with subscriber bonus material through second-hand info from Johnny) and 11 100-page issues from May 2003 to March 2005 (or 2,600 pages). I paid for 3,360 pages of content at GenCon 2002 with an assurance from Erik that Dungeon would not be altered. They are reducing my TOTAL content received by 23%. THEN if you look JUST at Dungeon content, I lose even more. Tell me again I am NOT losing content. [b]2) Storminator: Maybe you'd rather see BOTH mags fail.[/b] Maybe they will when all of us mislead, disgruntled subscribers ask for refunds (which in a private email from the publisher I am told is as easy as sending them your mailing information and they will speed your refund check to you, fyi). Broken promises to subscribers and sugar-coating a 40% price increase will hurt the magazines more than anything. And, by principle, I would rather see a magazine fail on its own rather than forcing me to buy Poly and Ranger REG to buy "Dung" (even if he and I don't see eye-to-eye over the issue). [b]Default Name Player: "You failed to take subcription cost into account..."[/b] I HAVE a current subscription that was to run through Oct 2006. I am feeling cheated by the loss of overall content I will receive for the money I spent and even more cheated over the loss of Dungeon content. What I agreed to purchase is not what I will receive according to Mr. Wilson's one and only post here. Even in his private email he failed to answer my question of exactly how many issues I will receive. [/QUOTE]
