(Why no ads in Pathfinder? Would that make it a magazine?)The best thing for the entity is to restrict Content to mediums and forms it controls - for the good of the entity and to maximize profits.Of course I'm kidding here (somewhat);But all kidding aside, I rather thought that WOTC was interested in promoting the industry on behalf of gamers.  I mean, thats what this is all for right? A game?  A social outlet for folks to let off some steam and relax (in a relatively wholesome way)?  If I thought, for a minute, I was giving my money to an uncaring conglomerate that views it customers as simple fodder, then I would find other places to invest my money.  I don't believe in that business model.If WOTC wants us all online, then PROVE the model with great content and varied access models.  In the meantime, they should have left the "little guys" doing what they do, on behalf of their shared customers.But, the Entity, in it's machine-like wisdom, cares naught for a little, how was it put?, "Nerd rage".~D</blockquote>
