[QUOTE="Faolyn, post: 8934492, member: 6915329"] Except that I'm not buying the giants book, the Planescape book, and that deck of many things book because I don't want to support WotC. But you [I]still [/I]haven't said if, or how, me choosing to not buy a book because I don't want it is less, more, or equally harmful than not buying a book because I am not going to buy from that company. Nor have you said how WotC would even know my intent. So again: I'm not buying Dragonlance because I don't like Dragonlance. Am I hurting 3pp creators, and how? I'm not buying Planescape because I don't like WotC. Am I hurting 3pp creators, and how? I [I]did [/I]buy Van RIchten's Guide to Ravenloft, but I nave never bought a single third party 5e Ravenloft product. Am I hurting 3pp creators, and how? Did [I]you [/I]buy the 3pp SWADE setting book "Task Force Raven," put out by The Rune Forge (not Pinnacle, who produce SWADE)? If not, does this mean you are hurting either Pinnicle or 3pp creators? Because if I'm [I]not [/I]hurting the 3pp creators by not buying books that I'm not interested in, but I [I]am [/I]hurting 3pp creators by not buying books because I don't want to support the company, then you are saying that somehow, my [I]intentions [/I]have the magical power to hurt 3pp creators--in which case awesome, I have magic powers, bwa-ha-ha, fear my magical consumer wrath.
