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).

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.

Ignore the haters, Ben, I think a retelling of an old story sounds cute.

And I don't know when I pissed in Dodger's Cheerios, but I'll gladly do so again given the chance, and he can tongue my pee hole again while I'm at it.
You should go to GaryCon.  Period.

Quote from: RPGPundit;750327I'm willing to concede that these things (OG's and Ernie's stuff) are labours of love, and not just some kind of duplicitous opportunism.

Its just the mentality behind the demand for these things that drives me nuts.  Its not what I myself want from Old-School or want Old-school to be.

Thing is, there arent that many clamboring for all things Gygaxian as one might think. And a a childrens book is likely to just get a glance as any other TSR era childrens book. And TSR cranked out quite a few, not counting the EQ books.

Is there some big demand for the Gord series? Theres still a copy sitting in a bookstore locally...

Thing is. Gary has just as many haters as he does fans, possibly moreso because of course the hatemongers will be more vocal.

If you're writing at 5 in the morning, the drug must be caffeine.  I can't imagine being up that early.

Well, unless I haven't gone to bed yet.
