[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 8865681, member: 4348"] I HIGHLY doubt WotC doesn't like him. There may be someone there that doesn't prefer him over others, but I don't think the entire company views him badly. I think some may even be happy for his contributions to the RPG scene. Overall, I think (IMO in otherwords) that WotC is by and large more of a neutral entity at this point towards others, except in the pursuit of advancing their own agenda. As for a response by WotC...what would WotC even say in this? That they already have the OGL and SRD...it's up currently and can still be used and utilized? What are people thinking, that the OGL will suddenly go away or be unable to be utilized at all? Since when has that happened? Even with 4e there was still an OGL that was used, even if 4e wasn't the basis for it. With ONE D&D being the same (relatively speaking, meaning the same in the eyes of some of those at Hasbro and being backwards compatible with the original 1 D&D...aka...5e) as it always was...I expect the OGL in effect today would still be fully compatible with what comes out in the future even if nothing changes. So what are they to say in regards to that? What could they say? [/QUOTE]
