[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 6560018, member: 957"] Without the slightest intent of speaking for Mearls (I've never met nor spoken with him), I'd go out on a limb and guess if it was entirely up to him, there would be more funding and more things happening. I'm not saying that open the floodgates would be the response or desire (or a good thing). But I think it would be somewhere north of what we are currently seeing. I guess the main point is that neither you nor I should be speaking on his behalf. "loving" is a loaded term. Setting that aside, if the past is any indication they are not doing the D&D fanbase any favors and there a few verifiable sightings of them being a help. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Hasbro pays ZERO attention to D&D except when WotC calls it out within their own statements. I'd bet WotC has goals and certain guidelines, but then it is up to them to perform as they see fit. But not being able to cast blame on Hasbro doesn't mean that it is not fair to complain about the way things are going on their watch. [/QUOTE]
