[QUOTE="Bad Paper, post: 3482262, member: 24674"] [b]No[/b] I have avoided all threads on this subject, because only now can I overcome my irritation to post. Not that you care about my opinion, but I suppose I should hold forth [b]somewhere[/b]. Anyone who got angry about the cancellation of the magazines needs to grow a pair. The vitriol is stupid and misplaced. You sound like children being denied seconds on dessert. No one has been deceived or betrayed. (I understand that current subscribers get some kind of consolation prize or whatever; haven't bothered to follow that up) And Paizo is the winner here, because I had never even heard of them before they got the magazines, and now they are being painted as the poor victim...with tons of press, brand recognition, website traffic, etc. And yeah, I have Dragon mags back to the double digits, so it's not like I don't care. It's just that...I don't care. I have a slight nostalgia for Dungeon (got those back to the single digits), but I am not worried that that amateur adventures will go away. This move will strengthen the "third-party" adventure publishers, which is a Good Thing. If anything, this move will foment interest in the Digital Initiative. And give all those people with BitTorrents of all the magazine PDFs something else to leech. Oh no! I went there! [/QUOTE]
