[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6718859, member: 7006"] Whereas your poor assumption is that WotC actually cares about your [Corpsetaker's] money. Which they don't. They don't care or need your [specifically your] money. Any one individual's cash matters nothing to them. If it did... we would have seen them do and release every single thing that people on these boards have clamored about over the last decade with their ridiculous refrains of "I want to give Wizards my money but they won't take it!!!" For YEARS during 4E people complained they couldn't get any back catalogue materials. They bitched and moaned about WotC and how they were "sitting on a goldmine!" and that they "have all this cash to give!" but that WotC wouldn't take it. But it was only on the path towards 5E did they ever bother to do so. For the past year we've had people DECRYING the fact that WotC refused to release new splatbook material and that they wanted to spend their money on D&D. But it's only now a full year and a half later that they finally are doing so. If WotC really cared about the money demands of any one individual, don't you think they'd be all about making sure that person was getting what they wanted exactly how they wanted it? Of course they would. But... they're not. All they care about is that the game is healthy. And that people are playing it. Or even... that people are playing ANYTHING. Which is why they finally did release all the previous edition material in the first place. Because people who game [game ANYTHING] begat other people who game. Which is all that matters. If gaming as a hobby is healthy... then D&D will be healthy. Because gamers will oftentimes try and play D&D. And thus the "threats" of any one individual such as yourself... how WotC better "learn their lesson here!" or else you're "spending your money elsewhere!"... are nothing but echoes in the wind. You aren't that important Corpsetaker. Not to WotC and their top-down view of the hobby. Sorry! :( [/QUOTE]
