[QUOTE="Wolv0rine, post: 3467861, member: 9045"] For Me, this has very little (if anything at all) to do with WotC's history of online excellence (or lack of), it has [b]nothing[/b] to do with what this announced online service may offer or how it may offer it. The price they propose to charge means nothing. For Me, this is about them closing down Dungeon and Dragon magazines. I don't care what happens in the world of gaming, what the profit sheets say, or how many gamers are playing... but when Dungeons&Dragons loses (of it's own volition, nonetheless) Dungeon & Dragon Magazines (regardless of who's subscribing. Your subscribers are too low to make the mag work, pair it down until it doesn't hurt, but keep it going, because they were important just BEING there) it feels to me like a part of D&D has died again. Some people say 'WotC owns the rights to them, they can do what they want. It's not for you to say', but that's BS. If the company that owns Peanuts decided that it'd make them more money if they pulled all Peanuts comics & cartoons from all places and times forever, and transitioned Peanuts over into a porn comic... no, I don't think people'd just go "Well, they own Peanuts... okay..." The consumer has the [u]Responsibility[/u] (not the option, not the right...) to vocally decry their opinions and desires to the economy. That'd how it's supposed to work. Me, I'm with the "WotC can bite it" crowd, for closing doors on Dungeon and Dragon Mags. It was a traditional masthead of the game, dammit. [/QUOTE]
