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.

Quote from: Spinachcat;1027933Yes, both of you wanker geezers.

The future death cults need your wisdom!

Damn right! :mad:

No, wait! :eek: They're supposed to write memoirs to stave off this dystopian future! :(

You need to write in a voice that tells future death cults the wisdom of... not starting their future death cults. :o Oh dear, it's a bit redundant. It might start a schism.

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

Celebrity status, and how some people react to it, of all types, grate. People want someone to be hero or monster. They can't just be a (historically important in their field) person.

Well, to me Gygax was certainly something of a hero. I'm tremendously grateful he existed. He's just not a God.
