[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 3999041, member: 23977"] I'm not saying that. It's not a question of whether I believe you or Paizo. It's not an issue of my thinking anyone is deceiving me. It's that I don't understand it. It doesn't make sense to me no matter how many times either you or Paizo say it, without an explanation. (which is the reason for the post.) The explanation is what I'm after not just a restatement of the original statement. Which is why I said the "they can't legaly do it" made the most sense to me. Because thats so far the only one with an explanation behind it. I said already that yeah, there would be no hope of making a magazine overnight as big a success as Dragon/Dungeon. That's a no brainer. But I'd be very hard pressed to believe that Pathfinder is = in revenue to what Dragon/Dungeon brought in... So there's already a loss there. Why not start a new magazine (albeit smaller then D/D) with the idea/hope to grow it into a bigger magazine? They're Paizo. People know they have the ability to do a quality mag. It's not like their a no-name startup. Sure magazines need more printings, but there's also commercial space being sold (which seems like an added source to me?) If I'm not understanding the logistics, thats fine. I just want them to be explained! :) [/QUOTE]
