[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5926610, member: 54877"] Agree with this. My objections are strictly practical. As far as things like suggestions for OGL and the like, I don't care--or at least the ways in which I do care are more about pique about people complaining about not getting a free ride on some other company's work, than about whatever WotC may or may not do with their licensing. I've seen (and said) since 3E that there is an element in WotC working at cross-purposes--the left hand doesn't seem to know what the right hand is doing, and vice versa. This is ultimately a management problem (whatever the departmental source of friction), and it leads to all kinds of [B]unnecessary[/B] trouble that makes a game less than it could be. If WotC arranged a cross-country skiing trip, someone in that company would make the team haul a boat anchor along, just in case. (This is also, I should say, entirely too much like my last few years of real life. Perhaps it will bother me less at WotC when I finally manage to fight my way clear.) [/QUOTE]
