[QUOTE="Glade Riven, post: 5436302, member: 86468"] Well, a few people glossed over a few things I said, but...meh. It happens. I don't feel like repeating myself on those things. I actually have no personal love or hate towards WotC, and if I was going to be joining a 4e group I'd probably pick up an essentials product. It is nice to see that people have popped up in this thread defending them. Making a paywall work is about more than just slapping up a paywall and expecting people to pay, and it's hard to tell just how well DDI is working right now without data that only WotC has. But even WotC has [URL="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/4news/20110113"]admitted that they need to do a better job communicating with the fans[/URL]. It also looks like WotC is concentrating on adding value to DDI, which is a good thing for current and potential subscribers. As far as infringment goes, it can't be stopped. But if you can figure out how to turn it into a marketing opportunity instead of wasting money fighting a losing battle (RIAA, anyone?) then a losing situation becomes a winning situation. [/QUOTE]
