[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4567468, member: 70778"] Because it could generate more sales of their core products? I offer free advertising of their products via mine. But the whole advertising has shifted now and people have to pay to have a product in their programs now instead of the way it used to be where the product owner had to pay to GET into the programs... What would WotC have to lose? Only their chance to make the exact same product. As it stands now they [B]can[/B] kill the GSL to steal the name from someone's new monster as it is. What the hell do I owe WotC anyway? I have said it before, and will say it again. I don't care about WotC. I owe them nothing, they have never done a thing for me. I was one of the many people that kept TSR hanging on by their teeth to not go into bankruptcy and foreclosure that allowed WotC to buy them and make D&D afterwards, and even bought WotC/TSR products. I think they owe me! God forbid they save on marketing the PHB or DMG because I was able to make something that caused people to need to buy it and WotC didn't have to shell out any extra money for that advertising. How much do TV commercials cost these days? Not just the 30 seconds of time, but production as well. So what I am offering is less marketing costs and accounts payable for WotC, with an increase in accounts receivable and sales due to the increased interest in the product for D&D that only they can make and sell. ;) [/QUOTE]
