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 lunatics crave a political messiah to act as their overlord. In this video about Leyline's recent actions he's begging for Shadowdark's creator to act as a king and purge the OSR of all that is profane.

Who is this creep? Who is he to condescend to the OSR with his holier-than-thou attitude? Makes me think of that old Hank Williams Jr. song, "Attitude Adjustment". He's in need of one.

so, you went out there, found a person that is pretty much insane, dragged his video that has 61 views here where it will get the attention it definitely doesn't deserve - all to accomplish... what exactly? to illustrate your point that "lunatics crave a political messiah to act as their overlord"?

Stop promoting this shit weasel nobody. He is begging to pick a fight with anyone in tbe OSR just to bump up his numbers. Hes already gone after Grim Jimm Desborough and I think Pundit too. Grimms response "who is this guy?" He is another hateclick poster and the sooner he is shunned to oblivion the better.

There you can see the title clearly and the comments that are laughing at him.

The more you comment at him the more traction he gets as that's what the youtube algorithm views as "Interaction" .    People who comment on his shit takes are singalboosting him to be recommending him to other people.

I propose adding Leyline press to the list under RED status.
Reason:  Firing, unpersonning and attempting to blacklist a writer/editor for no other reason than having worked on "Lamentations of the Flame Princess" and other games they find "Problematic"...

Their own SOY lips say it here:

https://twitter.com/leylinepress/status/1656412595698409475

Also having cut off all comments save their own friends of course due to the backlash they are getting.

Thank you!

Oops - sorry - I did read the better part of a dozen entries on the current page and nothing about what I mentioned so I assumed no one had gotten around to mentioning it here yet.

I could have done a much better job of bringing up the issue in my original post.  I'll try and do better moving forward.

He's the kind of guy who reports gramma to the stasi because she said something at the dinner table that Uncle Joe Stalin might not have liked.

Pulp Cthulhu is actually an excellent book that is almost entirely non-woke. The only potentially woke bits are a passing mention about pulp stories sometimes using racial stereotypes, which they definitely did, and artwork of non-white and women characters as examples of different archetypes, which is anachronistic but not ham-fisted. Other than that, it's just a celebration of pulp stories and rules for how to run Pulp CoC games.

Pulp Cthulhu was probably written before Nu-Chaosium took over and printed shortly after they did and was before they started  down the slippery slope by hiring  their political commissar Lynne Hardy.  They have now slid straight into the abyss of deviant wokery.

I ordered a hardcover 9th printing of DCC, which is nice, with ribbon bookmarks and nice art. I'm happy.

The free PDF download from DTRPG is the 10th printing, with the 'woke' pronoun changes.

Those lunatics changed the pronouns in the ****ING DEDICATION TO artist JIM ROSLOF!  "their' work will be missed? It's bad enough using a plural pronoun for a singular generic subject (the Cleric loses 'their' spell?), but to pluralize a known subject?  That's implying Jim's work was a collaboration or not entirely his! Does he have heirs? Do they approve?!

I wrote a note at DTRPG letting them know they might want to ask Bud Light how appeasing/enabling a tiny lunatic fringe works out for sales.

The pronoun crowd ignores their own rules on preferred pronoun usage whenever the subject isn't one of them.
