Okay... Mike Mearls...
Not happy with what he did back in 2014. Bad move. A very bad move.

But WotC ended up doing the right thing and cut ties with ZS well before a lot of other people in the industry.
Obviously, they can& #39;t say more for legal reasons.
At the end of the day, I believe in second chances.

I believe people shouldn& #39;t be defined by one mistake but what they learned from that mistake, and how they move forward. What they do after.
There& #39;s also so many awesome people working for D&D.
I don& #39;t feel comfortable burning D&D and WotC for Mearls doing a boneheaded thing five years ago.

Because that& #39;s saying cool people like Jeremy Crawford, Wes Schneider, and Dan Dillon are equally bad for working w/ Mearls.
I have to trust that their continuing to work for WotC means they& #39;re comfortable with Mearls and have accepted whatever private punishment/ reprimand was handed out that we haven& #39;t seen.
I trust them so I& #39;ll trust WotC and D&D.
Party me also wonders where the line is between justice and revenge.

Mearls has been driven off twitter. He probably can& #39;t go to any gaming convention again. Including the D&D Live events. That& #39;s unlikely to change even if he is fired.
When will he have paid for his actions?
When he& #39;s jobless and loses his healthcare in the middle of a pandemic during the worst economic crisis of the last 90 years?
When he& #39;s untouchable by every other company in the only industry he& #39;s ever been involved in for his entire adult life?
