SPECIAL NOTICE
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.

How would you explain our innate desire to modify RPG rules & mechanics?

Long ago before smart phones I worked for a digital mapping company and learned about copytraps. Basically this was a false road (usually a dead-end of some kind) placed on a commercial map so that anyone that republished the map could be found out easily and sued. The error in the Thieves skills, and knowing TSR was pretty protective, suggests maybe they were trying something similar.

Well, maybe it was this, maybe it was a typo... My point is that we have no reason to be using that to this day!
