[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 8905655, member: 6779196"] Why is there any expectation that the “other side” should have to drop anything? WotC gave us a nice toy, said we could keep it forever (in fact, some only accepted it under that premise because they were suspicious WotC might take it back some day), and now they’re trying to it back anyway, and instead offering us a different toy that’s covered in rusty razor blades and barbed wire. And when we complained, they said “oh, that was just a prototype. The finished version won’t be rusty or have any barbed wire on it,” but refused to comment on whether or not it would still have razor blades that aren’t rusty, or whether people who don’t want the crappy new toy will still be able to play with the old one. And some people are actually sitting there unironically saying “come on, they promised to take off the barbed wire [I]and[/I] the rust, and you haven’t been willing to compromise [I]anything[/I]!” Yeah, no duh we haven’t compromised, we never asked for this horrible new toy in the first place! How’s this for a compromise: Let us keep playing with the old toy, like you promised and have been honoring for 20 years, and you can put whatever hazardous materials you want on the new toy.
