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.

This is some crazy stuff.

It's starting to show up on TV news too.  Apparently they've got something planned for 6pm EST today.

"The difference between being fascinated with RPGs and being fascinated with the RPG industry is akin to the difference between being fascinated with sex and being fascinated with masturbation. Not that there\'s anything wrong with jerking off, but don\'t fool yourself into thinking you\'re getting laid." —Aos

Whoa.  It's all over digg.com -- videos, intervies, "secret docs"...

Yeah, the shield of threatened litigation surrounding the Church of Scientology has been effectively collapsing in the last couple of weeks.  This has been largely thanks to the diffused nature of the Internet, and also, in great part, the CoS's eagerness to pump up a questionably-balanced, high-profile celebrity like Tom Cruise as their spokesmodel.  There's scuttle out there that Cruise is not only their spokesmodel, but has risen to a position of considerable authority within the organisation, which might help account for their apparent ineffectiveness in dealing with the moutnign assault on their cherished secrecy.

I'd be lying if I said I haven't been waiting for this for a long time. :D

I start from his boots and work my way up. It takes a good half a roll to encompass his jolly round belly alone. Soon, Father Christmas is completely wrapped in clingfilm. It is not quite so good as wrapping Roy but it is enjoyable nonetheless and is certainly a feather in my cap.

Indeed. Die, motherfuckers, die!

No good. That'll just be another Incident to be Audited in their next life purging of Body Thetans....

Besides, Hubbard ain't dead, he's a disembodied Thetan flying around mars fighting against the ghost of Xenu or some shit. If the clams go down, he'll just come back and issue more bad movies to his loyal followers...
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.

For the curious: Apparently, in person, I sound exactly like the Youtube Character The Nostalgia Critic.   I have no words.

I'm both delighted and amused. Since it's news that comes at the brink of nasty food poisoning and/or stomach flu, it's very welcome to mine eyes and ears.

Here's my website. It's defunct, but there's gaming stuff on it. Much of it's missing. Sorry.

I've got a blog. Do you read other people's blogs? I dunno. You can say hi if you want, though, I don't mind company. It's not all gaming, though; you run the risk of running into my RL shit.

4chan vs. the Church of Scientology is like the reverse of Alien vs. Predator: whoever loses, we win...
I am no longer posting here or reading this forum because Pundit has regularly claimed credit for keeping this community active. I am sick of his bullshit for reasons I explain here and I don\'t want to contribute to anything he considers to be a personal success on his part.

I recommend The RPG Pub as a friendly place where RPGs can be discussed and where the guiding principles of moderation are "be kind to each other" and "no politics". It\'s pretty chill so far.

You are only saying that because your Thetans haven't been freed. ;)
