[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8666066, member: 7006"] Well, I dunno when any company-wide decision was made to have the D&D team stop talking to the huddled masses... but all that comes into my mind was the absolutely insane and entitled reaction by the gaming public who got all bent out of shape when a supposed player-facing book being possibly designed around the time of [I]Princes of the Apocalypse[/I]... a book that had never been announced or indeed that anyone was even aware was being made UNTIL some rando went dumpster-diving in the depths of the internet and found the barest indication one was being bandied about and then spread that rumor like wildfire... was then "cancelled" by WotC. And when WotC said "You can't cancel something that was never announced in the first place", ENWorlders (and other sites) lost their ever-loving SH%T! And made some of the most ridiculous and overreactive crap responses to them that was basically them trying to kick the D&D employees in the groin over and over and over again in punishment for daring to not give them what their entitled little asses demanded. And at that point it was made abundantly clear to the D&D team that trying to talk to us internet rando fans like reasonable people was a complete and utter waste of time. And they rightly shut the F up after that because a bunch of us here ruined it for the rest of us. And ever since then? It's been proven time and time again that their decision was indeed the correct one, as we STILL get people here calling members of the D&D team [I]talentless[/I] and [I]lazy[/I] because they choose to institute rules into the game that the ENWorlder doesn't like. So quite frankly, I don't blame them ONE BIT that they don't show up around here anymore because there is nothing to be gained by them doing so. We ENWorlder message board cretins have made sure of that. [/QUOTE]
