Have to agree with a lot of posters here. Like many, I started buyinh dragon at a tender age (iirc Ish 119), and over the years have subscribed off and on. This announcement seems to me to be a apalling decision on the part of WotC. And, you know, some people may like the on-line content (I always thought Dungeon should be an on-line thing, but that's me). Having experienced the on-line subscription service type content (I'm a long time subscriber to Battlecorps.com), I can say I tried it and dislike it (right now my subscription is a nice bit of gamer charity, but for Battletech, that other beloved game system I played since the hoary days of youth, I don't mind so much...). I probably will not be getting aboard for whatever on-line content WotC intends to substitute. Will I boycott WotC? No, but I have been subconcously for the last few years (I haven't been buying much from them for some time...).
I'd like to give a good word for Paizo though; the quality of Dragon has been much better the last few years, and I really looked forward to every new issue. Thanks...
Damon.
