I've seen such publishers act rather arrogantly about it, like Morrus was there to be at their beck and call. This didn't begin with Morrus' tenure - I'm sure many of the long-time posters remember when WotC's message boards were gone for literally months, back when Eric was running the site. You saw WotC people posting here all the time, and the site used as a de facto WotC site. Then, when WotC's boards were back, many of them vanished. There were some who stayed as regulars here, but if I had been Eric, I know I'd feel like I'd been used and not really acknowledged or compensated for it. I see evidence of this type of treatment being done to Morrus now. There are plenty of great and loyal board members who are also publishers, who treat Morrus and EN World with respect. But it only takes a relatively small number of les-than-polite folk to make the whole thing a drag for whoever is running the site.</blockquote>
