[QUOTE="triqui, post: 5991826, member: 57948"] I agree on that. Just like the Telegraph is the headwater of current Internet. However, the importance of telegraph right now is clearly disminishing, and any attempt to "force Google shareholders to " by some kind of telegraph boycott is ludicrous. Even with the big influence it had in the past, the truth is, right now, D&D (and pen and paper RPGs) are a very very very minor hobby. Trying to bully Hasbro, as some posters have suggested, is laughable. The Transformers franchise alone has produced waaaaaaaaaay more dollars in the past decade than the whole D&D franchise (including pathfinder and retroclones), ever. Magic the Gathering alone is much bigger than D&D. And it's just a drop in the sea of Hasbro's budget. Starting a crowdfunding to force a 4 billion per year company to sell intellectual property sounds like... well... childish? [/QUOTE]
