Looking at the "why" of an action or caring about it doesn't necessitate judging anyone at all. Frankly, what you wrote came of to me sounding like you're making an objective pronouncement of truth, and ... it's just not. It's your opinion, and that's cool of course, but people do care about the why's. And people care about some issues and not others.I care about this issue because of the creative people I know in my life. I headed down a different path, but in the 90s I was moving towards writing in the RPG field. That's why it's important to me.The fact that WotC has given RPG books to school is great, but it also has nothing to do with what we're talking about here. And if we were discussing that, I would wonder why they did it. I've been involved with enough corporations who do things in the community purely to get points on the good side of the balance sheet that they hope they won't get yelled at when their next crappy decision comes around.It's totally okay to not care why a company does good in the world. It's also okay to care. Either position can make logical sense and be ethically consistent. And I'm sure people are on one side of the aisle in some cases, and the other for others. There's just opinions here and not objective truth either way.</blockquote>
