[QUOTE="Jerrid Al-Kundo, post: 276180, member: 3321"] Well, my wife tends to handle [i]courtesy letters[/i], and we've yet to be told "no" (our OGC Coordinator, if you will...). Details as follow: We are a fan-site/independant project; Our material isn't aimed for market. Like it? Download it. Don't like it? Ignore it. We have gotten replies from Mystic Eye Games, Neatherland Games, Sword & Sorcery Studios and Bastion Press; All good there.:) We have never heard back from Mongoose; Still waiting.:( I have directly asked board members (whom aren't even Publishers) to use material they've posted; All good there.:) My wife is about to send such letters to Malhavoc, AEG, Green Ronin, Avalanche, Chainmail Bikini and Athas.org.:cool: I must admit to using material from FNCC's Netbook of Feats without such a letter...:( I'll fix that situation, though, promise.:o While a fan site, we aren't as bound to the terms as for-profit publishers. However, we try our best to retain some degree of courtesy and respect to help assure that fan-sites retain this flexibility. In addition, we often make changes to this material to fit the specific flavor of the setting. As such, while credit for the material is given, we also refer the reader back to the original source for the "default" conditions, prereqs, effects, flavor, etc., stating clearly that what they are viewing might not be entirely what was originally printed. Anyhow, it just seemed the proper way to do it, being a fan project and all...:D [/QUOTE]
