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.

I don't know Jessica Price. 

But as anyone who has an ex-girlfriend knows, you can't spot crazy.  I mean, tin-foil hat or MRA shirt might give it away, …….

What is it with MRAs that get people going like this? I mean, isn’t Cassie Jaye, those “honey badger” people, and maybe even Christina Hoff summers technically all MRAs, even if some call themselves feminists as well?

I had instant flashbacks of the Gamers thief... backstabbing with a trebuchet.
I thought it was a ballista...

Mechanical character builds remind me of something like picking the shoe in monopoly, it isn't what I play rpg's for.

I think you're right.

I need to update my tables. Now all my thief players will have to switch weapons.

If they're playing 5e, I'm sure they were already using ballistae to take advantage of Crossbow Expert (for the BA attack with the offhand ballista).
