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.

Nine pages of discussing Kotaku cancelling critical role. Do I have to be the first to pose the question: who gives a fuck (about either of them)?  Worthless Internet company. Stupid attention-whore "look at meeee!" wannabe actors.  They can all get fucked.

LOL how are they "stupid attention-whore "look at meee!" wannabe actors"? They're ACTUAL FUCKING WORKING ACTORS. And by "working" I don't mean Critical Role I mean they are all actual working actors who were working successful (mostly voice-over) before Critical Role was streaming. And how is an actor doing their profession "attention-whore "lool at meee!" when THAT'S THE ENTIRE FUCKING JOB. Jesus, what they hell happened to you 3cat, you never used to be this stupid.

By definition, an actor's job IS being an attention whore. How is it that you don't get it?

Not only do I get that, you're agreeing with me but apparently too fucking stupid to see that?

Me thinks the stupid one is the guy that says one thing and then claims he's saying the exact opposite.

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

We still have a liberal and conservative side, where each likes to pretend that it's only the other that is authoritarian.

Intellectual dishonesty from jhkim? This is jeff37923's complete lack of surprise.

I feel like we need more specific variants of Jeff's complete lack of surprised. Like Eskimo words for snow.

Mistwell white knighting in defense of a fellow travelers absurd social Marxist whataboutism? This is jeff37923's wry acceptance of a once relevant poster's fall from grace. Does ENworld know that its Champion has taken The Great Dirt Nap?

Wow you did not take that perfectly good hearted joke well Jeff.

Mistwell being disingenuous? This is jeff37923's complete lack of surprise.
"Meh."

Yeah, I don't get throwing shade at an actor for doing their job and acting in front of a camera for money.  And they are making plenty of bank, CR is apparently raking in literal millions.  I don't get the appeal, but I didn't get PewDiePie either and that guy also made millions somehow, so I'm apparently just out of touch with their audience.

Too true.
