You guys and gals are AMAZING!
What I thought would never be possible is potentially a realistic goal!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the kind words and love for Greenhaven! It makes me want to keep going & provide quality, affordable stuff for your table!

The custodian (HAS/WotC) needs destroyed.
I WANT to love D&D again. I doubt that will happen again in my lifetime.
As long as the WotCnazis hold onto the IP, we will continue to see destruction of lore, erasure of Gygax, and DEI rapey-insertions. That is not D&D.
@IHateRyanDavid
An honest answer. Clearly it's fair to say "competition" is in the mix. I'm very appreciative of your transparency because I've been saying this for a while. People just aren't against DND. They want it utterly destroyed. There are stakes here. I don't think people get that.

"SHAME ON THE DM FOR INTRODUCING CONFLICT AND UNCOMFORTABLE SITUATIONS TO THE TABLE..." said no real
#TTRPG
player, ever.
Earlier this week I faced an uncomfortable situation at one of my D&D tables involving racism. I brought these feelings to my DM and advocated for change.
Unfortunately he got defensive and refused to see another perspective.
So I quit the game. Simple as that.

"Maybe they got it wrong."
Way to manufacturer doubt and shoehorn ones own mental illness into an innocent child's psyche.
This is what our children are being taught.
That people (including their parents) simply “made a guess” at who they were when they were born.
By telling children “maybe they got it wrong”, it imposes an existential crisis upon them.
This is cruel. This is abusive.
