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.

You're an absolute faggot.

Obviously it's bad to use slurs, but if you'd be willing to sign an affidavit to that effect, asserting that I am (as you assert) a complete homosexual, that would be very legally useful.

Not only is it true, it's red-letter law.

Nope. The goal posts (read up) are at "it's legal to lie unless you can prove damages". That's not true at all.

You can google, I'm sure.

Nah, the goal posts are "lying isn't protected speech", when it literally is, outside some very limited exceptions, like defamation (which requires you to prove damages and that you were specifically mentioned) and lying to the feds (which I forgot about when writing that post). Outside of that all other forms of lying are legally protected, that I'm aware of. And I might be wrong (maybe I missed another exception), but in the VAST majority of cases people can lie their ass off and absolutely NOTHING would happen to them--they can even profit from it--and if that wasn't the case there wouldn't even be a mainstream media, or even alternative media or social media platforms, and every country in the world would just be a prison camp.

Well you are now being informed that you are not aware of some important exceptions. You don't have to run straight into this: it's ok to admit maybe someone who's been doing little other than dealing with defamation law for two years might know more than you on the subject.

You can just go "Ok, maybe, I spoke too soon. I don't really care about this that much, bye."

I have never said that.

For example: I am a terrible judge of character. That's negative--and not a lie.

I have just proved you are lying. Or--at the very least, misinformed and oddly aggressive about it.

Now that we've gone through a few rounds of put-up-or-shut-up and folks have shown a lack of put-up, I am also happy to go back to what I was doing.

If anyone has any questions or seriously thinks any of the concerns raised so far have substance, as usual, contact: zakzsmith AT hawtmayle DAWT calm and I will be happy to entertin them.

#metoo but, if you've been watching the updates, you know I already did my bit and it's in layout. So I know little more than you.

Eh, Well... you seem off track. Are you here because your Kickstarter has delivered?... If not, I'm confused. I see you say now you are not in Charge of the Kickstarter, and are confident it will be delivered soon. That would be good. Do you have a specific date for that?... becuase it is 2021 now.

If it has been delivered, why are we not talking about cool new gaming stuff, ...instead of hashing over old disagreements?

I have been rebuilding my Classic Games Collection. Since Christmas I have purchased Cross of Iron, and Crescendo of Doom, as well as Imperium, Dark Nebula, Mayday, Caesar:Alesia, and the Melee microgame. Just need Advanced Melee and Wizard now. Thinking about rebuilding my Europa collection, need to wait for the tax return though becuase Drang Nach Osten, and Unentschieden are pretty pricey.

I'm running two Original D&D games online every other week, and have setup to run five one-shots for GaryCon in March, Two original D&D, Traveller, Gamma World, and have to give the new baby a spin, and will be running Green Ronin's The Expanse set right after the Ring Gate is opened to colonization.

Don't speak to me directly again, you fucking narcissistic degenerate assclown. You are literally insane, and I would bill you for taking up my time if I thought you were capable of acknowledging other people as people.

If anyone believes they have a legitimate grievance against me, you are most welcome to say what that is, and show your receipts.

I do ask 3 questions for you, Zachary Smith :

1 / How been an accessory to the impersonating of an actual person with whom you have a bad relationship i e : the Shannon Appecline stuff on Reddit, can be an objectively good thing ?

2 / How accusing a person with whom you a bad relationship (you accusing John Harper of stealing people with Blade in the Dark Kickstarter) with any kind of proof which would secure a criminal or civil condemnation before an actual court of law can be objectively an good thing ?

3 / How slapping a woman with whom you had a tryst after just asking her if she is into kinky things, quite a nebulous terms, and receive a yes to the question and not an yes to  consent be slapped by you can be an objectively a good thing.

Those are my questions to you, for which quite eager to have yours answers since I sincerely wish to be enlightened by you, who claims that he is an actual good man.

I didn't impersonate anyone.  If you know for a fact I did: sign an affadavit to that effect and give it to anyone you think might have legal use of it.

Harper was objectively proven to be dishonest before--he;d admitted to trolling and has made objectively false claims later. So, in that light, the fact he didn't spend his kickstarter money to fulfill the kickstarter on time was judged by me to be (on the balance of evidence) likely. Thus I called him "a kickstarter thief". He's guilty of two worse crimes.

I am happy to accept that he may just lack integrity and admit there's a zone of uncertainty around it.

I'd also note that this whole thread--which you yourself necro'ed starts with someone who was forced to defend their claims of alleged "abuse" by me (including things you asked about here) in court admitting they were lying when they were asked to put up or shut up.

Lol, I fucking know it ! You did not answer my first question : I did ask you being an accessory ex : having lending your internet connection and your laptop, to the person who did impersonate Appelcline on Reddit, Therefore I would ask you again.

For the 2nd question, you are a terrible person for writing the obscene and abject thing you had written. Nobody on this planet should be accused of third count of crime of felon because he had eventually commit 2 counts of another crime. That is not an actual lawful and good system of justice works, that how the Inquisition did work. You should really learn about law, good and modern criminal justice before even dating to write this absolute travesty of Justice !

For the 3rd, just plead the 5th amendment of your constitution which allow to lawfully and legally to do not respond to my question.

Thanks you dearly and sincerely, I was enlightened !

Oh, let me clarify: nobody impersonated Shannon Appelcline, that I know of.

1. Are you making a moral or a criminal accusation?
2. Nothing I accused Harper of is a felon. I understand english is not your first language--that's part of the problem, probably.
3. You've heard the Clash song "Police are thieves"? or "Capitalism is theft"? My bases are covered, legally and morally: I think Harper had a moral obligation to do what he said and spend money to do it if he had to. You can disagree, but you can't say I lied.

I have no idea what you're referring to. I'm talking about other people who have faced blacklisting or censorship campaigns exactly like you and I have. But who's politics you just didn't like. Or that you just took as another opportunity to try to ingratiate yourself to the radical leftists in the hobby, to no avail.

Why are you even entertaining this clown? He's been trained well in the ways of Marxist gaslighting; no matter WHAT evidence you provide, he will find some way to twist it so you're wrong.

100% serious: your OSR stuff is much more usable and interesting. Zak's crap is just art projects published under the guise of roleplaying supplements and the only reason people like them is because of the aesthetic, not the content.

I like both RPGPundit's RPG content and Zak's RPG content, and find them both usable and interesting (and if money were more available these days I'd be buying both of their content more often). In fact I don't much like Zak's aesthetic approach - but I do find a lot of his content of high utility. Vornheim: The Complete City Kit is highly useful to me sometimes, for example. And not because of the artwork, which isn't much in line with my personal artistic tastes.
