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.

I own the Spanish edition. Besides being d% I see nothing special about it. Unless there's another rpg called Far West?

How the hell did he get the Spanish version done but not the English version done?

It's not, it's a totally different game, nothing to do with 10-year Loser Award Winner GMS.

The Spanish edition is way older than 10 years (1992), I thought the Loser Award Winner GMS was making a second edition of it and that's why there was such apetite for it.

It honestly doesn't strike me as anything but a mediocre-good game. Hence my surprize at the apetite for what I thought was a second edition.

@Zak you don't know me, I don't know you. You have clear design capability of some sort, just that what you sell isn't what I typically buy. I mean you no ill will. I also know the legal system is a sewer and the process is the punishment. As someone who never has had the wherewithal to really care one way or another to dig into the internet drama surrounding you... I wish you the best of luck.

I can only take so much egotistical, self-righteous, condescending doucheness. 

He said, on a message board run by the self-described "The Final Boss of Internet Shitlords", the RPG Pundit himself.

It wasn't his moniker... Pundit just adopted it after the fact if you want to get technical about it.

You still haven't managed to actually link to anything I did other than say it's bad to lie on the internet.

I think it sucks that Zak is being slandered like this.  This could happen to any one of us.

Absolutely. We should all stand up for those being wrongly cancelled, accused, and blackballed. Any of us could be the next victim.

And we would have... if Zak hadn't been such an insufferable prick to many of us over the years.  I can only take so much egotistical, self-righteous, condescending doucheness.  And that's not even counting his unfortunate political takes!

Ozzy Osbourne said it best, in The Decline of Western Civilization, Part 2:

"You meet a lot of people on the way up... Don't fuck them, because you'll meet them on the way down, too."

Still dodging. If you think I was shitty to someone: link it.

It seems like you just don't like being confronted with the fact you're lying.

Blocking trolls doesn't stop them from talking to other people, so it doesn't solve the problem.

Misinformation needs to be fact-checked in the venue where it appears, regardless of the source. If people didn't believe things because the person talking "is a troll" none of this would've happened.

It's not, it's a totally different game, nothing to do with 10-year Loser Award Winner GMS.

It just sort of looks like the logo of GMS's, that why I got confused.

Personally, I couldn't give a fig about Zak and all this crappy drama. As he doesn't come across particularly well on the old interwebs (as Venger pointed out).

But what really concerned me, Shark (and I've said this before) was the way Drivethru stopped selling his future books. That to me was the epitome of dangerous and toxic 'cancel culture'. I mean, how can you stop selling a person's work over some 'allegations'? I know that they are a private company, and get to do what they want and all, but I think that's a very shady practice. As an old lefty, I don't like that type of corporate tyranny.

The only people that can make that type of judgment are the courts and it's still ongoing. So at this moment in time, they have no reason to cancel his stuff (IMO).

Depending on what one's view is of 'cancel culture' is, I'm all for it. That is to say, I've personally canceled a number of people. That Fred Hicks buffoon and evilhat for one. I'll never buy another product from them as long as it live.  ;D Which is a shame as I really like Swashbucklers of the Seven Skies, SoTC, and Don't Lose your Head.

So speaking as a neutral party - it's facts over feelings as far as I'm concerned (at this point in time anyway).

You've repeatedly claimed I did something wrong, Rob, and repeatedly dodged any request for proof.

You can complain about any kind of culture you want but you are exactly the problem: you're a person who wants to attack people without proof.  Not drawing a line there--feeling that it's really important that everybody hear your fabrication about someone else--that's the impulse that leads to all this cancellation. You're joining in irrational hate on a random innocent stranger and then disavowing responsibility once some of the people who misguidedly jump on your bandwagon go further down the path of being an online jerk than you have already gone.

You crossed the line between defensible and indefensible long ago, and somehow want to justify being not quite as bad. There's a simple solution: stop doing that and treat people as people.

Your take is "I want to lie about creators, and make up bad things they did"

Their takes is "Look at all the bad things people are saying this creator did, shouldn't they face consequences?"

There's precious little difference there.

What are you on about now? Where did I say YOU actually did something wrong?

I don't care about you or your minute internet drama. My only concern here is drivethru and how they treat their creators. AKA - Satanis, Raggi, Red Room, and others.

So I've no idea what you're on about here.
