Same way the PaizoFans rally to Pathfinder or the Ronin Fans head to his banner.In the final days of 3.5, there was a definite shift in the spirit of the fanbase (at least on ENWorld) towards viewing WotC as the faceless corporation (ala the T$R days) and the GSL is pushing it further. I didn't like those days much, and hope that WotC realizes they can make just as much (if not more) money with a good community feel as with a mercenary one. They are slow to react due to their corporate layers, and they need 3P cheerleaders for more than just product support...Hopefully that made some sense. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />(And I didn't fork it because I don't feel like discussing it point by point with the ENSharks, so sidetrack over!)</blockquote>
