At this point in time at least, the version of Open Game License 1.1 that people are objecting is nothing but an unconfirmed and unverified (potentially faulty) leak. So while I would be against the leaked version were it to be released, I don't think we can know for sure at this point whether or not it is correct. As such, my avatar will remain an awesome picture of Tiamat.

BoringBard's long and tedious posts somehow manage to enrapture audiences. How? Because he used Charm Person, the #1 bard spell!
He/him pronouns. Call me Bard. PROUD NERD!

I can appreciate your patience. And it does fall into the line of corporate legal tactic "underpromise / overdeliver" for 1.1 to be heavily different once posted.
But I doubt NotC is going to let 1.0a stand unfortunately.

Another term for that corporate legal tactic is "basic negotiating." You always ask for more than you expect or even want. No one takes the first offer.
I agree with the others, as presented, it sucks. But that doesn't mean that's what will actually see the light of day.
I have been a subscriber since D&DB started in August of 2017. With the exception of a couple MtG supplements I skipped, I have purchased every piece of content that has been released.
Unless WotC publishes a statement in the very near future making it clear that the spirit of the original OGL will be supported, I will be cancelling my subscription even though it means walking away from over five years of subscriptions and $934 in content.
Definitely a moment of truth for many of us. It seems surreal as a fan of the game that this regression approach towards creative talent that helped rebuild and save the game is even being considered by WotC.

WotC has proven my point that actions, not pandering words matter. They have only ever cared about their bottom line, and HASBRO made them show their true intentions with this debacle.

A way to indicate your stance; change your avatar pic to the Open DND logo if you believe OGL 1.1 is bad for your game.

I think the point is you want to make sure it doesn't see the light of day due to feedback.
Remember, this was published, what, 5 days ago? Slow down man
