[QUOTE="amethal, post: 8355017, member: 22784"] Is that actually a problem? I'll happily write an adventure for you, free of charge, for any system with which I am familiar. (Seriously - if you want one, just let me know.) Gareth Hanrahan, on the other hand, will charge you the going rate. However, if you pay Gareth you know you'll get the final product, he will meet the deadline (I assume, never hearing anything to the contrary), there will be a boost in sales from people who really like his work, and the adventure will simply be better in every possible way. You get what you pay for. Now, there might be mediocre would-be professional adventure writers whose work isn't significantly better than mine. You might be better off getting me to write your adventure, taking the risk that the direct cost saving will outweigh the extra editing time needed, lack of incentive to meet deadlines and the general amateur nature of what you'll get from me. Maybe - I dunno. But if such a hack writer does exist, I don't see why we need to support them. [/QUOTE]
