Wil Wheaton Drops Dungeon Column

[reveal]

I know, I know... Just the principle of the thing gets my dander up. :\

Hey now. This is a grandma-friendly board. Take your "dander upping" potty-mouth elsewhere.

exactly.

the now new page doesn't have to be the last one.

it could be placed anywhere in the mag. and place monte's as the last one.

I like the idea of placing monte's as the last one. Perhaps do it like I've seen in some magazines. Put a catchy article on the last page and have the jump come before. It's unconventional but it works sometimes. The centerfold map thing is a great idea.. I hope Eric is still reading, quick someone else say something negative to drag him back so we can pitch more of our ideas.

You, sir, are a boob.

They be us Buzz. They be us...

On a more serious note, perhaps it's simply because few people found the information Will wrote lively or interesting and that he's a celebrity of... well, he's not Bradd Pitt, and his fame is for a character many people hated with a passion.

And just because people are vocal about not liking Will, doesn't make them bad people overall. You'll not find any previous post of me badmouthing him or anything. No sending of hate mail. I just wasn't interested in him but I can see where others might've taken it to the next step.

I think it was more so that a majority found it either interesting or didn't care. It was only the lively bunch of complainers that vocalized anything. It's sad when you got to consisently say you like something for it to say when all it takes is a few naysayers to get something canned.

Then again, that is how this country was founded. Polls around the time of the constitutional signing showed that american's were split in the 30 percents as whether they wanted to be their own country or separte. 20 to 25 percent of people didn't give care. So I guess sometimes a rambunctious minority is good.

No no no. you have to say something that may test the crediblity of Dungeon magazine as well. Like me and dungeon magazine are boobs.. geesh he'll never come back at this rate.

 

[EricNoah]

^^ Not negative enough I'm afraid!

How DARE you... I demand an apology on the behalf of all ENWorlders for your insensitivity. Or else the moderators will ban you and dance on your empty shell of a message board account.

I suppose it's time to toss in my 2 coppers worth on the subject.

Like a number of other people, I too have opened the magazine to the back for the purpose of reading Wil's column before reading anything else in Dungeon.

I would like to also echo that this is because it was not only written from the heart, and written well, but because it wasn't only about D&D.

Wil's column will be sorely missed. Shame on the haters, and shame on Mr. Mona for listening only to a narrow group of posters instead of reaching out to the larger community as he has done in the past.

All hail boobs!
