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.

That could be said of any site, no? And it´s not so much about theRPGsite moderation but rather on bannings and their lacking merits themselves. The points Re:TheRPGsite are only a retread of what I and others have already and at first brought into the discussions over here. So no behind-the-back-talk.

If there was another site following a free speech policy as I ad some others understand it, I´d close my channel down and support the hell out of the free speech forum.

I've checked it out too, and likewise with you best of luck.  If it succeeds it shows your forum fills a valuable niche.  If not, it doesn't necessarily mean you were wrong: forums can founder for a variety of reasons.

(I approve of the site's endorsement of Traveller as the best RPG in the world.  I do not consider that question to have a single right answer, but there is a set of RPGs -- and I feel Traveller is one of them -- for which one could make a good argument.  Picking one of those shows me that someone can recognize quality, while picking something else makes me question whether they and I have anything in common as roleplayers.)

Thanks! Everyone is invited, of course. And it´s definitely not an Anti-anything site.

Free speech? Open to everyone? So it's unlike RPG.net?
I thought THIS was the site for the RPG.net exiles?
