[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 8666738, member: 7808"] It seems like the TSR crew has been enjoying Facebook a lot lately. Yesterday, they spammed their "We're not grifters!" message across various pages. If you read it now, it seems like they have a lot of supporters. But that may be slightly distorted by the fact that they deleted ~50 posts by anyone who spoke against them. Most surprisingly, Erika Lanasa (Justin's spouse) joined in, asking why everyone was being so negative. Today, they tried promoting their meter system again ("Multiple school boards are looking to adopt this meter for library use." Yeah, I doubt that). Then they followed up my announcing that they're finally getting around to shipping out the reward memberships from people who donated on the Indiegogo campaign: [ATTACH type="full" width="500px" alt="memberships.JPG"]251197[/ATTACH] I don't know what silliest about this. The fact that their "cards" are nothing more that a laminated piece of paper, the fact that they're somehow prideful about shipping them out 6 months after the campaign, or the fact that they used the original TSR Game Wizards logo. Wouldn't it be great if WotC claimed this as an unauthorized use of the logo, and managed to take the profits from the campaign as damages? Finally, just to round things out, today Lanasa posted a faux-painting of himself, his wife Erika, and his kid (!) to the DHSM page and various other OSR pages. Every time I think Lanasa has hit rock bottom he surprises me; dragging his family in to promote this mess is a new low. [/QUOTE]
