I mean if I have a fancy fencing sword tht does 1d8 damage with a +7 prof, why can't the computer program have a pop up where we input all that info? There are quite a few excel spreadsheets that can do that, and a few player made Virtual tabletop programs that can do that, MapTools, so why can't the professional version? I just can't understand why I can have a longsword automatically update my character stats but a homebrewed weapon is just a note.

If you allow houseruled things to work fully with the CB, then there is no need to subscribe for the updates as you can just manually input your books and have them work. Thus, Wizards is an evil corporation. ;)
