[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3469359, member: 4134"] That's a big pile of steaming crap. Evolution would be to have both the magazines and their Online Aberration at the same time and see what will win out. But they meddled. They killed the dinosaurs so their apes could become human. That's not Evolution, it's Infernal Intervention. Fact: A dual model of both print magazines and online content, available both on their website with a number of payment and subscription options and in paper, which would in turn be both available everywhere you can get D&D stuff and as a subscription, again with many delivery and payment options (including "paid with cash and carried home from the store") would be the delivery system to reach the greatest number of people. So where does that leave our old girl? I'd say: "bleeding in the gutter". Yeah, right. Except that you suck at that medium. Coming home? Dragged back in, kicking and screaming. You threw them out when they were not good enough for you anymore, and when you saw that others could do them right, you got jealous and shot them down. I hope others will learn from this. I guess it will be harder for them to license anything, because it's a lose-lose situation: Either you fall down on your face, or you have some success for a time, until they take it away from you. Aren't you a nice guy. People feel terrible about this, and you ridicule them. You must have many friends. Those comments were made by some cynicists who did the same as you did: Add insult to injury and ridicule those who feel the blow hardest. [/QUOTE]
