[QUOTE="Belen, post: 1634394, member: 1405"] I did not condemn it. I just stated that it was a mistake. Personally, I was never a fan of it and that includes when I was paying member of the RPGA. And several poly readers have decided to stop buying since the decision, so you cannot say they did not react the same way. If the situation had been handled better, then the outcry would not have existed, but adding a mag that had no subscribers to a mag that already had subscribers can not be labeled a GOOD idea. Sounds like it was a political decision that WOTC made in order to assuage any complaints from RPGA members that the mag that came with their membership was canceled. Also, no true gaming organization exists to help promote the hobby and create a stable base for a d20/ gamer mag. The RPGA is basically a WOTC lapdog and playtest organization now and no longer really supports non-WOTC campaigns, therefore, no longer supports the gaming community as a whole. An organization that did support the entire hobby would have the ability to provide a true Polyhedron. As of now, it's hard to complain about a DnD magazine choosing to include only DnD, especially, when the subscriber base for Poly is so small. [/QUOTE]
