[QUOTE="Qwillion, post: 4754348, member: 14641"] Questions for Mr. Leeds How do you plan to bring back in fans that the policies listed above have alienated? * 4E (WoW-like game not liked by many) WotC needs to release a masterpiece adventure product that balances roleplay, combat and puzzles. (Example Wrath of the River King from a 3PP that has achieved this already). * Licence issues (OGL, GSL) WotC need to unifiy and provide a stamp of approval on those 3PP products that are the best at supporting their product. This helps both WotC, 3PP, and fans by putting a spotlight on the cream of the crop, the same should be done for fansites. Other licenses out there in the real world incorporate good 3PP products into their core products, you need to adopt the same attitude so that there is a unification of design. * Setting support (e.g. New Forgotten Realms alienating old fans) Please make sure that when you assign someone to work on a setting they actually like the setting and don't seek to rewrite it to suit their own personal tastes. There is a reason it is a setting that has remained in print longer than other settings. * pdf policy Why were older versions of non 4e products pulled? What was the ratio before that was not alarming? What is the ration of illegal downloads now that they have been pulled? Your stance on the magazine vs. your print products is in conflict, might we suggest making dungeon and dragon magazine available for purchase via pdf outside of DDI, Or a PDF only product line, perhaps "The Best 3PP products of the [insert time frame here] sales of this product would pay for the editor who has to read the submission, and perhaps a entry fee would help support this product as well. If your the industry leader, you need to take a lead roll in wading through the chaff to show me the diamonds in the rough. *I will not address the rest my replies will be far too snarky, and I feel those ships have sailed and WotC missed the boat.
