SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

WOTC's big mistake - Giving us a survey

I didn't even open the survey. That amount of effort just might convince WOTC that I actually care enough to take the time to say I hate you.

Greetings!

That's right, Exploderwizard! I haven't taken the survey. I could care less. As Tenbones discussed, (OOH RAH! TENBONES!)--WE are not WOTC's market anymore. They do not care about us, they do not respect us, and, as many have concluded, like Pundit, DD, and others, WOTC actually *hates* us.

See DD's references for Twitter comments and interview videos made by MANY of the staff and writers at WOTC for the receipts.

So, yeah. Fuck WOTC. Let them burn. The hotter the flames, the better!

Semper Fidelis,

Amazing how quick the survey is when you have a negative impression of WotC and the direction D&D is going.
Question is, is the survey any longer if you answer positively. Part of me wants someone to try it, and part of me doesn't want them to get a single positive feedback.

It's not longer. A few on ENWorld said it's the same no matter what you answer, though one person out of like 20 claimed he thought he got more questions (unclear how he answered).

I didn't even know how to answer. Do I like D&D?

WTF is D&D anymore? I assume they mean 5e only.

I love OD&D and the OSR. That's my only attachment to "D&D"

heh...hopefully 95% of respondants said they hated WotC it's the message they need to hear.

I'm sorry, my responses are limited. You must ask the right question.

The problem with the survey, nothing asked on this:

"Has WotC's publicly stated political stances made you more likely or less likely to buy a WotC product?"

That, my friend, is the right question.
