[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 3690506, member: 2067"] The wording of the public ToS does not give me much confidence. And I could post stuff to a message board now with an overview and a link in Gleemax, even with a public account. That's actually the very heart of the criticism: Gleemax will be less useful (and less frequently used) because not everyone wants to give WotC the ability to indiscriminately use their ideas (even if WotC only does discriminately use them). Unless Gleemax was already established as the Next Big Thing, why would I bother doinking around on it with a link to another message board? Why wouldn't I just use that other message board? If the Gleemax fantasy of a "MySpace for Gamers" comes true, then the audience may still be worth it. But for every MySpace there's a Facebook. In other words, Gleemax's use is diminished because of a draconian cookie-licking ToS. And it doesn't really NEED to be. [/QUOTE]
