Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Calm down. First I really doubt they will sell to someone here, because here it is either swine, who already bought it or someone who is not interested at all. And even if the sell so what? Will the world collapse? No. I have successfully survived contact with a dozen or so indie games and yet I am not interested in playing them anymore. Sometimes you must touch the hot oven to know, it is hot. Give it a chance. We can Q&A you next time, if you wish so. :D

(shrug) I'm not buying Tony's game (sorry, Tony... when I heard the details, I just thought "not for me".)

I already bought Luke's game, or one of them (BE). But plan to do things with it he finds unspeakable. (I can't help but feel that the whole "Let it ride" thing is not at all necessary or helpful in a non-dysfunctional group. I don't apply bandages to the healthy.)

BID. I'm just interested to hear their angles, with the admission I'm not likely to be influenced. But you never know. ;)

Dude, you don't need to apologize for that.  If anything, thank you ... I'm quite happy to hear that you judged that you wouldn't enjoy it, and so put your money and energy elsewhere.  Nothin' makes me feel worse than having an unsatisfied customer ... and clear-headed purchasers like you are my best ally in preventing that!

Tony,

You ham.  I can't believe you asked for a Q&A thread and got one.

Tony's a flake, and nailing him down on a position is like shooting at jello, but he's not otherwise a bad fellow. There's no point carrying over the insinuations of dishonesty from the other thread.

Really.. Its not like Capes is totally unknown, and you can make it die by not aknowledging it.

Why would you want it to, anyway? It could easily have spaceships in it..

Tony,

If you could do one thing to put the idea of a war to rest, what would it be?
Do you believe that GM Fiat is inherently corrosive or objectively weak design?

Thanks,
Jim

PS: I bet he answers those directly..watch....betcha....

What? No indignant claims that I didn't give your game a chance or I just don't understand?

Where's the FIRE, man? ;) :cool:

Tony, you cowboy, you better apologize to all those Indians you killed with your diseased mind.
