[QUOTE="Knight Otu, post: 1716560, member: 192"] In case I was misunderstood - I'm not claiming that WotC went and copied creatures from the ToH (or any other source), without giving proper credit. We know that, if WotC uses Open Content from other sources, they give the proper credit, as shown by the MM2 and Unearthed Arcana. What I want to happen is what happened in the Monster Manual 2 - a small appendix presenting OGC monsters from other sources with the proper credit. As a recognition of the work of other companies, as it happened before. I'm aware of the history behind the Tome of Horrors growing from the Creature Catalog here at ENWorld, and also the infamous events surrounding the "Gentlemen's Agreement", which was supposedly violated. That was a big downer for the ToH crew at the time (I'm not aware of any behind-the-scenes going-ons, though, so I do not know what the gentlemen's agreement was, or anything). [/QUOTE]
