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.

OD&D - How shitty is this story game?

What everyone fails to see that if we bend it all in the same  tale - spinning as Kanye's doing, it basically proves that even Gygax was against the Swine, as he cast away Arneson as he saw him trying to insert swinery experimentation into his RPGs.
Furthermore, I consider that  This is Why We Don\'t Like You thread should be closed

Yeah, I guess that would fit the stupid world-view here. Which makes Lorraine Williams the ultimate swine, above Edwards, as she tried to abolish 'trve kvlt' rpgs forever by fucking over Gygax.

Please tell us more about the "worldviews of RPGsite", seeing how you are obviously such a long time purveyor of "our" "culture". Maybe later you can host a "I Was an RPGsite Poster" Q&A on RPG.net for bonus fans.

I 'thing' that registration/post amount matters, when you want to talk about group mentality of a certain place.

:"I'll have you known that as a man who has worked in a restaurant for a month, I know everything about leading such an enterprise".

Yeah, because people have only been reading forums as long as their join dates.

No, but without participation, your knowledge of mentality of a group is on par of someone who pretends to know everything about his favourite team's players lives based on games watched & occasional read of Gossip Girl.

Quote from: Kanye Westeros;668500don't really have time to dig up the rest but anecdotes of Arnesonian experiments are all over the place. Dude thought outside the box, like telling a story in place of saving throws.
Actually, it was making an argument, known in wargames circles nowadays as a "matrix game" (which seems an odd name to me, but so be it).

Both Justin Alexander and Kanye Westeros seem way out in left field as to what "story game" means around here, or for that matter to Edwards and his crew.

I'm not keen on either categorization, but satire and parody fall flat when they miss the mark of their intended referents.
