[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 8935634, member: 7030563"] But they won't that is the point, or more accurately they won't as much. Hurting the 5E market (which is primarily driven by WOTC products) will hurt the market for those things. It is not "magic". You can support who you want, if you want to boycott WOTC regardless of what impact it has on livelihoods of others that is your choice, but you should at least be honest with yourself about it. As for as being manipulative, what I am doing on this thread is certainly no more manipulative than when I and many other people on this forum were telling people to boycott WOTC and cancel their DDB subscriptions a month ago (or when I went further on a post that got me banned from a thread). I guess it is[I] good manuipulation[/I] to tell people not to buy WOTC products, but it is [I]bad manipulation[/I] to tell them to buy them? Call it manipulation if you want, but there were a ton of people throughout the community "[I]emotionally manipulating"[/I] others last month and there are still other people doing it now, including others on this very thread. The common thing in my[I] manipulation [/I]both during the controversy and now; is I am advocating the actions that at the time I think are in the best interest of the hobby, game and its creators.
