[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 8945322, member: 6804070"] Oh that would be such a cluster. Sure, it could be done well, but odds are that many of the negative aspects of things like Orcs of Thar would (unintentionally) be brought into content on the DMsG. Even if the "moderation" was done by the community, it would still mean that it would open up significant risk for WotC. "WotC allows X to be sold under their name onteh DMsG, they must do Y!" IMO it would be a poor business decision to open Mystara up for publication on the Guild. The profit for doing so would never be outweighed by the risk in doing so. What list? ~45 pages is not a list, it is a thesis. I'm not willing to read a thesis and rely on the intelligent comments from the few who have done so. Because that would be a very likely business decision. [USER=25619]@haakon1[/USER] and others have given the reason that such would be a logical business decision, even when its is not what is being asked for. No. Get [USER=6688049]@Dungeonosophy[/USER] to put it in a concise one page petition and I will read it. But this is simple not something I support enough to read a ~45 page thesis. What list? There is no list. There is a thesis. Scaremongering is a strong and inappropriate claim. Not what was being stated and not productive to the discussion to use such language. How much would that good will be worth? Would it be worth the risk they would be placing themselves in? There are ethical and theoretical concepts. And then there are business realities. The two often do not result in the same decisions. [/QUOTE]
