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.

Quote from: Marleycat;775461You have a sickness sir. And I can't believe this but I'm in agreement with LordVreeg, I suggest you bookmark it.
(shrugs)  Wouldn't save me a bit of time. There's no discernible difference between typing something into a file and typing it onto a wiki, or posting a document to my Yahoo group and posting it onto a wiki.  (Except, of course, that with the former I don't have to bother with wiki markup codes.)
This was a cool site, until it became an echo chamber for whiners screeching about how the "Evul SJWs are TAKING OVAH!!!" every time any RPG book included a non-"traditional" NPC or concept, or their MAGA peeners got in a twist. You're in luck, drama queens: the Taliban is hiring.

Most use a WYSIWYG editor anyway, my friend.  And having done it both ways..and I have...after a while it saves time.  Not at first.

Quote from: Zachary The First;773713Thought I'd share this over here, too. I finally got my GM's Binder put together. I had scans, pdf printouts, and notes over a ton of folders.

Here's the end result:

Cool.  

I have one of those too for my Mekton game, but it's just Mechs, Characters, and equipment.

I prefer paper and notebooks to electronic solutions.  For me it just takes something away from tabletop RPGs when everything is data in a electronic device.

I like it that the term 'pen and paper' is used...even though it is not what I do, it is still a term i like.

One of the interesting things I am discovering about working on a Wiki, is it allows you to quickly identify things that you may need to write about. The fact that you can access backlinks and see exactly what links to what I am also finding quite interesting.

As always its finding the tools that work for you, but for me I am definitely finding some benefits to how using the wiki is organising my writing.

Quote from: Marleycat;775067Thank you for not making me feel I'm doing it wrong.:)

I fucking love my Nexus; it is the perfect aid to running a tabletop game.

With the bluetooth keyboard, it's like a tiny awesome computer.  

I'm not a huge technophile, but in this I was ahead of my time; about 15 years ago I had a Palmpilot with a keyboard attachment, and I fucking loved that thing.  I could do all my writing while sitting at a cafe.  The tablet is like that, with a totally different order of magnitude of awesomeness.
