I honestly have been deeply saddened by the discontinuation of Dragon and Dungeon magazines. My 12 y/o nephew, to whom I gave subscriptions last year, was in tears when he learned. Like many others on the lists expressing their discontent, sadness, anger, etc...I would like to contribute by letting Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro know my thoughts and disappointment.
Does anyone have the names and/or addresses of those individuals to whom I should write? Frankly, Scott Rouse's message was condescending and insulting asserting that the readers of Dragon and Dungeon want this information in an e-format. Did he or others ever think to ask? Like many others have said, I am sure that this message and letters to the individuals of importance will probably be deleted, trashed, or ignored....but I want to feel like I tried. If not for me, then for my nephew and my 10 y/o son and 8 y/o daughter who would always run them to me when I walked in the door after work. Such fond memories that will disappear..."like tears in the rain." An escape from the tediums and reality of work in academia, it's been hard to believe that this is really happening.
Please give me names and/or addresses (snail/email) of anyone of potential impact. As for me I do not know what I will do with Wizards or Hasbro when it comes to my wallet. I am mad but more out of despair and disappointment. My ultimate fear is that D&D will fold completely. I have cancelled my plans to attend Gen Con - it's anti-climatic now.
I miss the days of E. Gary Gygax, Bruce Arneson, etc. etc. I wish you had never left.
Thank you.
