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.

I just want people who contribute to the fun of the group.
That's what I'd call an elite roleplayer. One who contributes to the fun of everybody. Such people are always welcome in our group.
Grając zaś w grę komputerową, być może zdarzyło się wam zapragnąć zejść z wyznaczonej przez autorów ścieżki i, miast zabić smoka i ożenić się z księżniczką, zabić księżniczkę i ożenić się ze smokiem.

Nihil sine magno labore vita dedit mortalibus.

And by your sword shall you live and serve thy brother, and it shall come to pass when you have dominion, you will break Jacob's yoke from your neck.

I'd sooner play with a novice roleplayers who struggled with the rules but got into the spirit of things and had his character do what ever seemed natural than a very experienced player whose character acts as though he knew he was in roleplaying game.
New! Cyberblues City - like cyberpunk, only more mellow. Free, fully illustrated roleplaying game based on the Fudge system
Bounty Hunters of the Atomic Wastelands, a post-apocalyptic western game based on Fate. It\'s simple, it\'s free and it\'s in colour!

Well, I feel that variety is good so:

- RuneQuest: I feel it's a good medium - wright regarding rules, makes fantasy perfectly and helps getting familiar with gritty games.
- Pendragon: It's literary, heavy emphasis in personality traits and motivations, good for getting the idea of games tightly tied into a setting.
- Dungeons & Dragons: Dude.Any edition you like, the one you feel more comfortable with. Good for getting the idea of high adventure, multisetting - system, heavy rules - crunching if you will.
- FATE / Over the Edge / Unknown Armies: These games are less traditional both in mechanics and setting, so they're good to show them that in our hobby there's a lot of possibilities, and how great is that.

This is my list today. Tommorrow it will be different.
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

All that needs to be said.
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.
