[QUOTE="Ghaerdon Fain, post: 4152967, member: 62976"] Would it help if I said I lived 75 miles away from a game/book store? Probably not. I also speed on the highway to get to said game/book store: so one way or another I'll be doing something illegal. At least I should get a C+ for honesty. Additional comment: None of us want to see D&D go the way of the Dodo, the only way to ensure this is to support the game and buy the books. If we don't buy the 4E then D&D will cease to exist and we just end up living in the past with our 1-2-3 E versions. I for one want to see 5E and 10E etc. I may not like all the changes in 4E (alignment and 1sq move) but that's not going to stop me from supporting the game I have loved for 30 years. Should I feel guilty I can't wait for Verys Arkon's latest update? Am I cheating Wizards with that? Back in the day, I d/l "Chicago" all 24 disks of it. Many went to BBS' just to get their hands of the free copy... and then 3.1. What was the result of all this illegal hype? Microsoft! What I did then was wrong yet there was a benefit to the company in the long run. Hype is good, downloading illegal stuff is... well... naughty, but if you have a conscience at least in this case you'll buy the books. Funny, I bought Vista last year out of guilt = didn't I get what I deserved? The only moral dilemma I have is if I scanned a book and uploaded it... for me that would be wrong. Also if I just d/l the books and never spent a dime to support the game. Let's face it, how many DM's wouldn't love a sneak peek to help plan summer campaigns? [/QUOTE]
