Message: <blockquote data-quote="GMforPowergamers" data-source="post: 8885240" data-attributes="member: 67338">because when I look at this, i don't see it.I was here when TSR was sending C&D to young kids with fan sites (Not here enworld didn't exsist yet and would have gotten a C&D if it did but you get what I mean)I have a VERY good idea how much the OGL did and is worth. I also know that it pretty much made D&D the only game in town to most. yeah, see this again seems overblown. I'm not saying that this isn't effecting anyone, and I want to single out I must have said 200 times in the last 3 days part of what you said is 100% false.I AM fighting for those people. I am advocating (in my small modest way) not because I think this will hurt me (its worst case most likely is a minor issue at best TO ME)  however it is earth shattering to some... and contrary to what some of those people who's earth is being shattered think, THAT UPSETS ME... thinking of the people who could lose everything is WHY I am here now posting instead of sleeping. Trying to piece to gather things, trying to help with my knowledge (limited as it is) where I can.But make no mistake, for most of us (aka people not selling any D&D work) this is as annoying as if there favorite show got canceled after the cliffhanger season ender.  Or ANY edition ends. 4e ended. It was my favorite version of D&D. V5 replaced V20 and V20 is my favored WoD system, in between they had there own 4e like fiasco... Deadlands became Savage worlds and as much as I like Savage worlds I miss the old Deadlands a bit. systems going out of print sucks, but in a "ouch I stubbed my toe" kind of way. Losing your job could be so life changing (both good and bad) and can mess up everything you have been working toward for years. again, I will be minor effected. I am sure there are players (NOT CREATORS) who both have more and less that will be effected by this. Over all just measuring by EFFECTING ME PERSONALLY, I would not care... EXCEPT I have this dumb voice in my head and feeling in my stomach that makes me have this thing called empathy. My empathy allows me to remember every job I lost and every set back I have had and look at the 3pp like paizo and feel for them. Those people, the people working on Level up, the people working on Pathfinder, those people is who I am advocating for, not me myself. However no, the guy who went from 3e to PF and now tor PF2e who is complaining his life will be effected so bad if PF2e goes out an Piazo shuts down... nope my empathy for him is the same as it is for you or me losing 4e, or someone that felt that Tasha's started down a path taking 5e from them. It stinks to not get new content. I'm sorry... but not the same or even close to "Oh, you were getting married the same week as me but now you are unemployed"</blockquote>
