Yep. Taking the advice from others, too: not gonna suggest they cancel so they can't say I wanted it.

I used to work for a comic seller who would routinely pull orders if it turned out it sold for significantly more than he made and say it was lost or damaged.

Not saying this guy does it, but the ramifications are so inconsequential that there’s really no reason not to do it (from their perspective).

No, but I was tempted to. And they’re both gone now. So I wasn’t actually the last order.

Will do!

I don’t mind the broken unit. I like a good project and I keep the animatronics disabled most of the time anyway.

That’s a good point.

Well that’s just it: I’m fine with a damaged unit. I usually keep the animatronics disabled. Maybe I can fix it, maybe I can’t. Cool if I can.

The skeleton mixologist from Home Depot. So many friends and family texted it to me: “IT’S YOU!” 🤣

Yep!

I would have preferred him to cancel and say "You're SOL." I was just fine with everything until he instructed me to cancel the transaction.

Yeah, it's the principle of the matter, really.

I have my moments lol thanks

Sure thing!

Fingers crossed!

Thanks. That’s the plan! Just wanna see how this goes down

Oh absolutely

I remove antagonistic posts all the time. If I don't catch a post, I can't remove it. If it doesn't get reported, there's no guarantee it will be read. It's a group effort.

No, it's "not perfect." The posts I removed are "actively antagonistic" and were not posted in the spirit of problem-solving.

Epictetus said, "If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid..." I have no problem being wrong. It's part of the human experience. I'm just a guy trying to follow the rules. The more I know, the better I can do it.

I received a modmail message, and I think the response should be public. Here it is:

I assure you I'm not tone-deaf to the community's concerns. However, community opinion and general consensus aren't necessarily the same as having verifiable information about what WotC does and doesn't permit.

First and foremost, I'm a player and DM myself, and my commitment is to helping build the best community possible. I'm not interested in enforcing restrictions simply for the sake of enforcing them, nor am I interested in alienating the very people we're here to support.

To that end, I've already reached out to WotC's legal team and my former Wizards Play Network representative (I used to own a brick-and-mortar game store) for clarification on what content creators are permitted to share.

Once I receive guidance, I'll provide a formal update to the community, and we'll review and revise our rules as appropriate to reflect WotC's policies and permissions.

I understand the frustration, but I'd rather make an informed decision based on actual guidance than assumptions, regardless of how widely those assumptions are shared.

Ok, you've had your say and the snark and name-calling has begun.

If WotC shares something on their socials, then it's assumed to be open. But a video from an influencer with screenshots of closed content is not the same thing.

You are conflating their actions and inactions with our responsibility.
