I want a refund for all book purchased on this site. I already deleted all my campaigns and characters and I already tried to delete my one and only home brewed magic item and it won’t let me. I never agreed to allow wizards of the coast to republish my personally created content without need for a license from me. The new OGL is forcing me to quit this game and rewrite a novel I was nearly done with. I hope the majority of players join me in turning to other less “hostile towards its own players“ games. When 7th edition comes out in 2027 under probably Disney or some other company I hope it has something similar to the original OGL, then I may return.

I believe there is similar verbiage if you publish something at dmsguild.
I'm not a fan of what I've heard from the un-official leaks so far and I really hope these leaks are just a temperature check for how the community would react to a first draft of new business rules. I think some dedicated (or well compensated) lawyers will ensure the old OGL can't be revoked in general, but if you want to ride the wave of the next edition then you'll have to agree to the new rules. I foresee some 3rd party publishers sticking with the 5e rules that the old OGL enables.
But DxJxC is right that if you published something here, you already agreed to terms similar to what people are freshly complaining about.

Curious to find out if you managed a refund.
Refunds to backstabbed customers is definitely an under-monetized area.
