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: The Traveller;662523...and right about here is where I start asking for evidence.
QuoteWhy?

I'm not saying this is going to happen.  You said "Can't be a bubble, because rpgs aren't getting overpriced like houses did."  I'm saying "Could be a bubble, because people's impression of the value of games from kickstarter could go below the price people are asking for on kickstarter, and then folks stop buying from it."

And, thanks for being an ass for asking for evidence on me joining in on the conversation.  It really brightened my day.

I'm sorry if people asking you for evidence of what you're saying spoils your day. If only we could all just say any old bollocks and have people accept that as fact, eh, what a world that would be.

If prices rise above the going market rate for goods and services on KS then I'll agree that we've entered a most peculiar sort of bubble. Until such time it's not a bubble but rather a fad which may become a trend which may then transform itself into an economic reality before winding up as an institution and being replaced by a more competitive alternative.

And get fucked for being shy of the facts.
