[QUOTE="Cergorach, post: 8923393, member: 725"] WotC/Hasbro pulled back from the OGL shenanigans and even released the 5.1SRD under CC. That is what we were angry about. If you want similar actions to have similar effects you need to show to companies that making bad decisions and reversing those bad decisions (and more) leads to some form of 'reward'. The 'reward' in this case people actually coming back as customers, otherwise in the future companies see no reason to repair the damage as there is no benefit for them. For me that doesn't mean I'm suddenly buying everything OneD&D because WotC/Hasbro fixed their blunder. But it does mean that everything I scratched from my wishlist is back on the table. Not immediately, as there's still a bad taste in my mouth, but I expect in a month or so, some of the stuff on that wishlist might be bought. Except for a DMG/MM 5E, it will mostly be licensed stuff like minis and computer/board games. [USER=23751]@Maxperson[/USER] You might consider buying the pdfs and printing them.
