[QUOTE="JVisgaitis, post: 4186164, member: 4177"] I don't agree. The backlash that would happen if they made us sit on it and finally dropped a bomb like that would be far worse. You think people actually are sticking up for them? It seems like everyone just complains that they have no faith in WotC and they're evil. I'm a publisher and I have almost 1,000 copies of Denizens of Avadnu sitting in my friends garage. I don't feel like I'm being screwed. There were a lot of plans we had for True20, but business is business. Of course they don't want people to continue to play 3.5. Why is that so surprising? I feel really bad for Green Ronin and Paizo, but nothing is set in stone and we'll see what happens. In your opinion. To me, it suggests exactly the opposite. They want to make sure that what they decide on is going to be something that weighs the community response. What would you rather? Option 1: Announcement made right away: "All products need to be destroyed and no publisher can continue to support OGL Systems. Its all GSL or nothing." Option 2: Several weeks later: "After listenting to the concerns of the community for the past couple weeks, this is what we came up with ________________." I'll take option 2 every time. You're just over reacting and buying into all of the "Wizards is The Man" crap. You have to June 6th and they are only asking you to wait for 2 weeks. I don't understand the whole sense of urgency thing.... Be patient. The preorder won't ship until long after you have a firm idea of what is going on with the GSL. Come on! I'm in a good mood and excited for obvious reasons. I didn't mean anything personal by that and I wasn't trying to cop an attitude. Sorry if I offended you. [/QUOTE]
