[QUOTE="UngeheuerLich, post: 8920837, member: 59057"] The buyout was 1999, the ogl 1.0a at least was 2000. So I think you need to get your facts straight. Edit: ok, you were already corrected. Sorry. Edit 2, to add something to the thread. Forgiving is something you foremost do for yourself, not the one you forgive. People adding lauging memes adressed at the people who do want to forgive is dismissive. It is not that people who want to forgive are too dumb to know what WotC has done. They know about the damage done. And in the end, WotC folded totally and completely. Not out of the good of their corporate heart, but because they knew, the only thing they can achieve is a pyrrhic victory, which is more loss than win. What they also did however was not burning everything out of spite and go to court, which might have left a lot of 3pp producers with nothing. Even if they would have lost in court after a few years, I think it would have equally led to a pyrrhic victory for the other side. So stepping back was in some way a bold move. [/QUOTE]
