To no surprise, #WoTC/Hasbro has gone back on their word about not using #GenAI in #DnD or #MTG.

People keep acting surprised that corporations put profit above all other values. That they run on greed.

How many times is everyone's jaw going to hit the floor when corporations do what they are supposed to do?

We've collectively decided that capitalism is the 'best' way to structure society then we cry when it burns us over and over and over.

Deleting my Reddit comments was a strange experience.

It wasn't the fact that there was a limit to see 1000 comments but what they were. The vast majority of my 12 years on Reddit I spent talking about dungeon and dragons 5th edition (DnD 5e) which I started playing early in is lifestyle.

What's your Magic: the Gathering take that has people furious with you?

Mine is that proxies should be a normalized part of play and that the Reserved List should be phased out.

What are yours?

People need to stop worrying about what #Hasbro #WotC is doing to #DnD. #RPG, at its core, is a very simple thing: rules, dice, paper, pencils, people, time and space, and a lot of snacks and beverages.

No one company or author controls #TTRPG #gaming.

LoneGunman, to accessibility

Work-related post: Are you currently, or were you previously a fan of Hasbro or Wizards of the Coast? Do you require any form of assistive technology to use the internet (screen readers, magnification, keyboard-only, etc)? Reply with a testimonial about your experience using (or lack of ability to use) their sites or apps and I can make sure that gets put in front of them.

I cannot, however, promise they will hear you.

I think the one thing we have all learned from #WotC this years is that corporate controlled creativity, even when done by good people, isn't nearly as good as what people come up without that company overlord telling them what to do.

Let's continue to support the smaller folks of the #ttrpg industry. Those are the ones who still care about the hobby beyond just dollars.

Maybe I'm not going to buy any Dungeons and Dragons products for a while.

I've been contacted by a law student in Seattle. She's writing a law review note on the and following in my footsteps by discussing the rarely-discussed concept of misuse. She's citing my work and, I hope, adding more to the argument. I hope this is a trend. More information is better, but I'm tired of arguing about it.

Dungeons and Dragons folk: The Beyond Printing extension for Chromium based browsers seems to do a pretty solid job backing up your content if you're worried about / shenanigans.

I've not reviewed the code, but so far so good.
