[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 8908666, member: 6802378"] I can try to understand Hasbro wants to avoid some 3PP with wrong content could cause some damage in the prestige of the family-friendly brand, but I have suffered injustly the censorship in Facebook, banned by fault of false causes, and then I don't trust who says censorship is necessary to stop disinformation and hate speech. I have seen a double standards, to use two different sticks to measure, and I can't trust blindy. The guidelines about what is "hate speech" could change in the future. Maybe something allowed today could be wrong in the eyes of a new generation. Hasbro can hire the best lawyers and win in the trials, but then the loss of prestige and trust by the customers could be worse. Here, some players have learnt to avoid innecessary conflicts by means of diplomacy and social skills, but Hasbro has to understand we are geeks, but not stupid. We don't want to feel tricked paying more really necessary. The sharks within Hasbro have to understand the D&D players aren't so easy to be manipulated or tricked. After several games the players have to smarten up for the survival of their PC against a mercyless DM. Their jobs is about to sell the products we want to buy, not about trying to change our minds about we want to buy. The rules of the games aren't protected by copyright+trademark laws. Hasbro's lawyers can't forget this. Hasbro needs good maners and fair play with the 3PPs because someones could be future acquisitions, if these aren't before by some Hollywood producer or videogame studio. Others could pay royalties to can use D&D-Beyond as a showcase for their titles. [/QUOTE]
