[QUOTE="Ranger REG, post: 1070314, member: 533"] And I appreciated the past effort. But let's be real here. [i]Poly[/i] magazine have been a thorn to every [i]Dungeon[/i] readers, aka [i]Dungeon[/i] Purists. They never wanted it and they'll lobby their asses until not one speck of [i]Poly[/i] is printed on THEIR magazine. I have put up a brave front and accepted the less-than-half magazine because of the non-[i]D&D[/i] content that [i]Poly[/i] provide, even though the conservative in me keep nagging that I am wasting my money. It was a hard campaign. I tried to be the loudest supporter, even when you decided to go monthly with 100 pages per issue. Prior to that, it was a 100-plus pages bimonthly issue with less than half the issue devoted to just [i]Poly.[/i] Still the [i]Dung[/i] Purists complain, while we accept what you can give us. But it's time I tell you that enough is enough. I have already reached my point of frustration that I have kept bottled up inside. And if that first full-fledged [i]Poly[/i] magazine issue hit the newsstand, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. But as it stands now, I can't. I cannot continue to support the combo magazine in the new format you've announced earlier, both ecomomically and ... for lack of a better word, spiritually. My heart is no longer in it. [b][/b] I don't know. To be honest with you, the diminishing [i]Poly[/i] content will only result in diminishing [i]Poly[/i] readers. IOW, you're going back to the same state as you were before the combo magazine. With all due respect, and this is the hardest thing for me to say as a [i]Poly[/i] reader and a [i]d20[/i] gamer (but not with a business mindset), I'd rather the magazine go out in a big bang. Make the choice and soon, Erik. If it's any consolation, I am glad for what we have so far, and I have bought for and collected every one of the issue that have [i]Poly[/i] in it. But I'm tired and I'm frustrated. I'm ready to let it go. :( [/QUOTE]
