Apparently this is a concern for Brian and possibly others. I dont see how his argument is irrelevant. What I do see is you posting something that is designed to do one thing and one thing only...provoke a negative response. And you wonder why so many people on this forum think you are an asshat.
Funny how you contradict your own argument that you posted for me in the exact same post and if you can't see that you did you are even dumber that I thought you were. Seriously, don't you have something better to do that troll this forum again. I must have missed the thread on here were people were lamenting your absence and while you are out there digging for proof of an "inflated market" that doesn't exist, perhaps you can point that out to me as well.

You are, in a sense, spending someone else's money."My point was simply that everyone has a stake, because even those who don't own a copy are forced to pay higher prices due to the non-availability of reissues.

bclarkie wrote:I would very surprised however if you invested $1,000 in one and still felt the same way or even if you came into one by accident cheaply and still felt that way, as then you would actually have something to lose in this. As I noted before, its always easier spending and losing someone else's money than it is your own. It's easy to write off someone else's loss as you don't have to live with it.

I guess when its not your $1000 or whatever it means a lot less
bclarkie wrote:Again though its extremely easy to say, "Hell yeah I'd take one for free or for $5 when it normally costs over $1,000!", especially when you don;t already own it. I think the people who don't have one neglect to look at it from that standpoint.
'Fraid not. I understand precisely what Brian was trying to say. I don't really want to get into this crap and take the post any more off topic than it already is but if anyone's posts around here are irrelevant I can say with some certainty that they are yours.
You act suprised by my response to your trolling post. Funny you always keep getting the same reaction from almost everyone to the crap you post and yet you still claim that you haven't figured out why yet. Seriously, Cougar is really obviously short on friends and since you have been so sympathetic to his plight here in the past, why not email him or something and you guys can like chat or something. I mean its got to be better than coming back here and trying to hijack this thread with your nonsense in yet another lame attempt to piss people off. If you must run your mouth, you'd be much better served talking to someone who is on your own level, right?

(No limited runs of Runic Copies, or signed copies, or whatever.) The reason being, the whole point of this endeavour is to get the module into the public's hands. If you want a rare collectible, I say go after the real thing.

I thought the limited edition price was a bit high so I decided to go with the standard. Either way you get the whole of the adventure...one is just different than the other. One way or the other, any person that wants the module can get a hold of it.
