[QUOTE="epithet, post: 7766224, member: 6796566"] I would submit that Greyhawk has had "at least one official release," since [I]Against the Giants[/I], [I]Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan[/I], [I]Tomb of Horrors[/I], and [I]White Plume Mountain[/I] (all Greyhawk adventures) have been released in a 5e product. Of course, WotC had to hang them loosely upon some stupid contrived framework of a Forgotten Realms quest giver, but they're still Greyhawk adventures. Add to that the fact that they took the [I]Tomb of Horrors[/I] and [I]Dwellers of the Forbidden City[/I] and built them into a whole campaign, even though they couldn't be bothered to put it in Hempmonaland where it belongs and instead transplanted it to Chult. They also built a campaign out of the [I]Temple of Elemental Evil[/I], but there too shoehorned it into a different setting. They've also released a book "authored by" an ionic archmage of Oerth, namely Mordenkainen. The Player's Handbook and Dungeon Master's Guide are replete with references to the peoples, pantheons, places, and characters of the World of Greyhawk. They've recently released a new adventure set in the Barrier Peaks. So, yeah... when they've used that much Greyhawk content, and created that much new content related to the World of Greyhawk despite the very thin veneer of Forgotten Realms context they smear over the top of it, the fact that they still forbid fan-created Greyhawk content from being made available at the guild seems pretty damn arbitrary.
