;) but seriously beyond this post, no more lol
And, srsly, it's OK to say the domains where stuff is. Google does that at the bottom of search results. If you have it in a sidebar saying don't link to here, 1) nobody is confused as to why they can't use the site, and 2) you can point to that rule as enforcing anti pirate
Many jurisdictions would treat that as facilitating copyright infringement.
Many jurisdictions punish witchcraft with prison time.
That's so true, bestie.
No offence or anything, but in my eyes, witchcraft ≠ facilitating copyright infringement, so your comparison is a little flawed.
The OGL only covers what's in the SRD, which is essentially the Basic Rules you find in the starter set plus a bit more.
Also worth noting after the fiasco earlier this year the SRD is also published under Creative Commons.
The full rulebooks aren't covered under any open license, and the only way to (legally) publish things with content from those books is to do so via DMsGuild where a portion of sales goes to royalties, unless you get some kind of an exclusive license (which generally doesn't happen).
Pathfinder is different, in that they made all the rulebooks open licensed, so something like Archives of Nethys completely legit, so long as they don't use artwork or specific IP.
(This is all a very loose, oversimplification of the whole situation, and I'm aware of that. Rules/mechanica cant be copywriten, only the specific expression of them, yada yada.)
Absolutely not. They are basically a pirated copy of dndbeyond.
