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.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Enjoy.

So one scumbag apologizes to another? Who literally gives a fuck, this has nothing to do with gaming. At all.

It does move the gaming forums out of the age of the get away with saying anything internet.  I'd be really curious to see the rpg.net backstage right about now.

Oh my. Seeing Ettin eat crow and literally pony up over it made my day.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

I think you must have skimmed: one scumbag (Ettin) apologized to me (awesome guy).

If you care to clarify something -- totally understand if you do not -- I was wondering, in your blog post, you wrote:

Quote from: Zak SOriginally I wasn't planning to publish any of it, but since reaction to the benefit for Adam Koebel's victims was so positive, I figured, ok, maybe there are some people in the online RPG scene who aren't gullible psychopaths.

Is that sarcasm, or do you think that Koebel's players were victimized by that incident?

His players? I mean maybe, I'd have to talk to them. He has definitely harassed and smeared people online over the years.

Congratulations Zak. I never doubted it was all bullshit, regardless of your detractors here.

Spit Truth to Power!!!

Add: you and Pundit have been and always will be the ultimate weapon versus the Story game consortium. Learn to work as one.

No surprise from the TBP and other places trying to suppress what happened. When as a whole they created a narrative filled, escapist, echo chamber with their forum, except in the real world unlike an online Forum the reality is different. It is so funny to see the list of "how did this happen " style posts from SJWs who thought that hiding behind a keyboard shielded one from legal harm. I expect to see Zak win against Mandy too.

Zak, make these turncoat bitches acknowledge how right you were.

They were in here wiping their asses with your name.

Fuck them.

Ettin is certainly scum. I'm still not convinced Zak is exactly Mr Darcy when it comes to husband material, though. But I suppose he could be another Johnny Depp for all I know.

JamesV

I was someone who had doubts about Zak when Mandy's accusation first came out and maybe I still do. OTOH, he's always been right about defending himself, and in court if he had to. Making Ettin eat crow is good news if you ask me.
