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.

I like how you can't criticize her because she's a woman. That's cool. If she was black, would it also be racist? She might be a lesbian, so it's also homophobic, right?

Mistwell has gone full NPC.

Literally his only "criticism" was "she's a woman."

That was it. That was the entire message, "Elon just hired a woman as the new CEO of Twitter. Your hopes are misplaced." The "hopes" of behavior were "ethical." Got that? Elon just hired a woman, so your hopes of the new CEO behaving ethically are misplaced. That was it - the entire criticism was her gender. Not that she had done anything wrong, just that she was hired for the job and is female.

If women want more censorship on social media, fuck 'em.

And? Women are both more likely to be on social media, and spend way more time on social media. Men being less concerned with something they use less does not mean men are pro privacy invasion.

Just like with the Mansplaining shit, men simply standing up for themselves when women want to shit on them, becomes problematic male behavior.
I'm a middle aged guy with a lot of free time, looking for similar, to form a group for regular gaming. You should be chill, non-woke, and have time on your hands.

WHY do you lie!?

Not being concerned about something happening to you isn't the same as being in favor of such a thing happening to others.

I'm not worried about an asteroid hitting me. Does that mean I'm in favor of it hitting anyone?

The study you link shows how worried are men about having their privacy invaded vs women. It doesn't show what you disingenuously claim it does.

QuoteOne important boundary you should be setting is don't argue with liars. When you indulge their lies, deflections & discursions as if they were actually up for debate, you're allowing them to shift the "Overton window" onto their terms which are FANTASY.

Remain rooted in reality.

Good reminder.

I just found it amusing that jhkim went for the "not all" excuse, which gets ridiculed when it's Not All Men.

I'll cut you a check for the chemo. Get well soon!

Exactly. I provided some receipts and jhkim wanted to deflect instead of acknowledging or refuting. That's his business, though I think it's pretty pathetic.

S'mon

I think it's obvious that Elon Musk is a right-Libertarian, not a conservative. That if anything makes him even more hated. Carlson seems quite conservative, certainly by European standards. Conservatives & Right-Libertarians tend to be on the same side currently because of massive Leftist dominance, but in a morally/politically conservative society Libertarians would be chafing under the conservative yoke the way they chafe under the Neo-Marxist yoke today.

Trump was a socially liberal 1980s Democrat, which made him a hard-Right boogeyman in today's bizarro world US political/moral system.
