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.

You know what I like about TheRPGsite?

I don't feel like I'm ignored around here. On RPGNet, it often feels like everyone else knows each other and I'm just a stranger at a cocktail party trying to join in on a private conversation. Generally, someone might politely reply, but otherwise noone acknowledges what I'm saying.

I'm definitely not an attention whore, but it's nice to be able to have people actually read and reply to what I type rather than skip over it to get to the "good" posts from their friends, idols, or enemies.  It makes me want to participate more, and I'm sure others feel the same way.

The Mosaic Oracle is on sale now. It\'s a raw, open-sourced game design Toolk/Kit based on Lurianic Kabbalah and Lambda Calculus that uses English key words to build statements. If you can tell stories, you can make it work. It fits on one page. Wait for future games if you want something basic; an implementation called Wonders and Worldlings is coming soon.

I ALWAYS read what newer posters say - after all I was very recently a "newbie" myself.
 I might not always have a comment or reply to what you have posted - but you are being read.

I feel the same way Manuel, and I've been posting actively at RPG.net for 5 years.

I've been here for maybe five months and I feel like people give a shit about what I say (at least as much as they give a shit about what goes on in Internet Forae).

I've been posting on RPGNet for almost 5 years too. I've only got 1,200 posts, or something. At the pace I'm on here, I'll quickly surpass that.

By the way, this made me laugh, even as the gullible part of me got concerned. :)

No way, man. I'm actually reading your time travel thread right now. I'm getting some good ideas.

I get along well around here because people interact much the same as my family did growing up:

If someone dosn't call you a fuckhead @ some point, the probly don't like you much.

and

If you try to pull bullshit around here someone is likely to call you out.


The real diffence is that in my family both of the above had a fair chance of ending up outside, duking it out.

If you ever find yourself on RPG.net and want to chat about something, but no one seems to bite, drop me a PM.

I just like talking about games.  As it happens, a good amount of RPG discussion between some smart folk occurs here.  Thus, I like theRPGsite :)

Hell yeah.  In total agreement over here.  Though I never ignored you on tBP...which means you ignored me!

Sorry if that was the case. Maybe we just didn't wind up in the same threads much? Do you use the same handle over there?

Yeah but don't sweat it dude :)  I just remember seeing your handle and thinking it really clever.  For what it's worth I always had you down as one of the "cool kids" of tBP.  

My measure of acceptance was always who was included in the Cast Tangency as.... threads.  I got in once.

I don't know if I ever got in- I tend to avoid threads where Tangency looks up its own ass. :D I include the "keetooms and pie" stuff in that category.

Damn, that sounded harsh. I'm not really a dick.
