[QUOTE="Sitara, post: 3980448, member: 58107"] [B]Discliamer: I in no way endorse stealing, pirating or anything of the sort. This thread is simply for conjecture[/B] In this day and age piracy and leaks of intellectual property have become sad facts of life. Half Life 2 is a prime example, as are the harry potter books.Now dndn 4E is a much bigger event that HL2 was; now I'm sure that WOTC has taken all precautions, but so did Rowling and Valve. Do you think there is a chance that the 4E documents will be leaked prior to the global release? By leak I mean pdf leaks via the internet p2p networks. The leaks could consititute playtest documents, bits and pieces of the rulebooks, to the entirety of the rulebooks in general. IMO the most vulnerable time for leaks of the entire documents are when they have been comlied and sent for publication; since its usually the softcopy of the file thats sent to a third party for publication, there is the possibility of any number of leaks right there. While I am sure every precaution is being taken, and a leak will not occur (nor should it! Peoples livlihood we are talking about here) how much of a [B]possibility[/B] of one happening do you think is there? [/QUOTE]
