Hi,

New here. Like the quest packs here. Was wondering if there was an English version of this quest pack available and maybe I've just missed it?

Read back a page or two. Lots of previews and chat about the translations.

Thanks found it!

Do have another question though.....is there a copyright issue, it seems locked from printing? I'd be happy to try a play through on it some weekend (can always hand make the cards), it'd be easier to have a print of the quest book.

It's locked from printing because it is a preview. The English version isn't 100% complete yet.

I have stripped the protection off of at least fifty HQ documents from around here. It probably takes you longer to encrypt them than it does for me to get rid of it.

You probably shouldn't be bragging about that. :D

Probably not. It's only a few seconds. But there's no point in stripping this one. It's locked to prevent wasted ink and paper since it's only 72dpi.

Why not? I cannot think of any reason for the protection even being there other than to make people go slightly out of their way to remove it. This place has the absolute best quality HQ resources, but in locked PDFs. I don't protect anything I produce in PDF because I usually make them for other people to use, and limiting a legacy because of a password is senseless. I want people to be able to take apart and possibly improve upon the stuff I make. The effort of scanning the original items surely had to be great, but there are, without a doubt, scores of people who have taken them and used them to play the game. To me, that's the ultimate goal: use by others. I don't think its my right to then describe conditional terms for how it should be enjoyed. If there's actually a logical and important reason to lock PDFs in such a way that I am unaware of, I am prepared to admit my ignorance. I'm not sure about that, though. Also, as far as I know, criticizing admins isn't against the rules. I contribute enough material to this community to have earned the right to speak my mind.

Well if you have just joined here and download stuff such as this, think how dissapointed you'd be when you see that the quality is not what you thought it is. :?

I believe the protection has been placed to discourage use of the scans on other websites. In the past, drathe has found his works presented as the efforts of another. Passwords aren't a panacea against copying, but they make it clear to a downloader that a scan or created PDF isn't intended for others to claim as thier own work. Password locks are an idividual's choice for sharing a work, just as open sharing is.

Personally, I support the open sharing at the Inn by members such as Chaotic Prime. People have conscientiously given credit to others where it is due, so that is enough for us. The use of Gary Chalk art makes me nervous, as it is usually protected by a particular site's terms of use. Regardless of my own misgivings, the community has shown the non-profit, open sharing of his art isn't doing any harm. I'd like to believe Gary would agree.
