[QUOTE="Ratinyourwalls, post: 5808820, member: 82763"] I really hope WotC announces a 6E a few years down the road just so the 5E fans get a taste of the "lol wotc won't come into your house and steal ur books lololol" train that every old edition gets. :hmm: It's never been funny guys, and it really sucks when it's pulled out. Can we please stow it? No WotC will not come into your house and take your books. That isn't an issue here. What is really getting people down about WotC is that with every article they produce they are continually ridiculing and socially segregating the 4E fans more and more. For **** sakes we've been compared to the McDonalds eaters of the gaming world and that just ain't cool. They aren't burning any of our books. They are just making it so that current 4E fans will never be able to get a game together because the game that they produced material for four years is suddenly [I]badwrongfun[/I]. To make matters worse this isn't the first time they've done it in order to launch a new edition and it won't be the first time that it has backfired on them. Furthermore it's even less relevant with 4E because eventually WotC WILL be coming to take away the 4E DDI content. It's unsustainable and the minute that Hasbro/WotC decides that it is getting in the way of 5E sales they'll cut it off...and there goes a bunch of 4E material that isn't in the books. So can we please just stow the "LOL WOTC NOT BURNING YOUR BOOKS" comments? They are condescending and don't accomplish anything but creating edition war hostility and are simply untrue because in a worst case scenario WotC could very well cut us off from a lot of the material that we have paid for.
