[QUOTE="Zak S, post: 7735047, member: 90370"] All of the companies we're discussing: LotFP, Green Ronin, Evil Hat, are succeeding. So that's not relevant. You could say that about literally any business no matter how exploitive or even illegal. The fact a business exists isn't a justification for it to exist--especially if its making bad product and exploiting workers. Yes. Many people currently involved are ok with mediocre product and exploitation. You're giving no reason anyone shouldn't get in with these better companies. Your only reason for saying the worse companies we're discussing couldn't follow this model is they are bigger, and the only reason you've said it's ok or necessary they be bigger is... The only example you just now gave is: noncreative employees require employment. And I've explained above that the only reason to hold this value is that if you believe that if any company no matter how exploitive exists it should continue to exist. [/QUOTE]
