SPECIAL NOTICE
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.

I´ll be gone

Dunno if anybody cares but I´m taking two weeks off this site. I wrapped up all the stuff that was unclear.

So, if anybody needs to contact me, visit my blog or somesuch.

I have the feeling I can´t learn much more here, and due to the evolving nature of the poster-population, this site has lost it´s collective memory. Old stuff has to be repeated again and again, even the casual RPG-threads repeat themselves.

Basically, it seems there´s nothing more to be discussed in the hobby, but there´s a lot to be done.

Anyhoo, take care, we´ll see us when something worthy of debate shows up, but not before two weeks have passed.

Sett,

 This is true of almost EVERY damn forum.

I have a better memory than the "collective memory" of the Orange and Fluffy - because I've been n there long enough to notice patterns and trends.
 Not everybody does.

Same thing with this place - just not so much in my memory because I 've been on here barely over a year.

I've always thought the point of these sites was to talk about what's going on in the industry, talk about new books, thoughts about gaming, etc.  I don't think I've ever visited a forum with the intent to "learn" anything about RPGs other than what's coming out, how did people like something that just came out, or what the latest industry gossip is.

I'm here for the current events type discussions.  I could care less about the "how to be a better GM" or "here's an idea I had for a game/character/setting" threads (one of the bigger reasons I stopped paying so much attention to RPG.NET, they focus way more on those types of threads and less on the types of things I'm interested in).

Have a fun break.

Personally, when I take a break I just take a break, and then reappear later without announcing anything, but so it goes.

I agree with Koltar's comments above entirely.

I agree with this 100%. No need for this kind of forum drama.

I'm going to take an 8-10 hour break from this site.

During this time, I will be unreachable (and, likely, asleep).

TheRPGsite has *not* kept my attention or my interest during this period. I blame you (yes, *you* -- that's right -- you: not the rest of the posters... you, reading right now... right).

When I get back in the morning, I hope to see better discussions -- not more of the same. No repeating. Get with it (yes, I'm still talking to *you* but also the rest of them now).

The Sons of Batman do not talk. Expect action.

I will be repeating this post nightly until the quality of the posters improves.

Cheers,
-E.

For you the day you found a minor error in a Post by Spike and forced him to admit it, it was the greatest day of your internet life.  For me it was... Tuesday.

Hey, I just took a break from posting due to excessive amount of work. Should I had made an announcement or something? I think that I can yet blame you all for the shitload of work I've had. Let's try:

Damn you all! If you've had more interesting discussions, I would have not be obliged to take a break in order to get a ton of work done! You're fucking up my life, mates! What's wrong with you? I really expect the quality of discussion around here to improve drastically, so I won't have to do any work anymore!

I don't know. It doesn't convince me.
