It is in their best interest (unfortunately) to NEVER provide such a policy, because by granting ANY permission, they open Pandora's box.
So long as NO policy exists, they can pick-and-choose their battles, which is the best option for them, since they certainly don't want to have to attack every fansite (thats some truly horrific PR right there), nor do they want to eliminate their options in cases where they need to curtail behavior.
BTW, this is also they best case scenario for us (sadly), because so long as there is no official policy, they can simply ignore us. The VERY weak link in any form of litigation is implied fault - the existence of something immediately makes you responsible for it's maintenance (be it a fence, structure, or fansite policy). They can only afford to "look the other way" so long as No policy exists.
As much as I would like for Candlekeep to get some form of official 'okay', I would have to say they would be stupid to do so (even if everyone here gets mad at me for saying that; the law is the law). |
