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.

Right on, Christopher Brady. And of course, *pretty girls* would never, ever use their body and sexuality to get what they want, or to gain an advantage, or to influence someone else so they can get revenge on some dork man they've decided they don't like, right? NEVER!:)

I think we could both tell stories of barracks queens.

Quote from: Catelf;1068363Of course it wont, just look at this site!

However, do look at this site, it do not so much avoid politics, as it approaches politics as one competent at meditating handles thoughts during meditation, i.e. avoids focusing on it.

Except for the endless thread derailments over whateverthefuck.

Which have at least started to taper off now that some of the instigators have twittered off to whatever holes they crawl out of.

Quote from: CarlD.;1068491The Rpg pub Hero System and the GURPS forums seem to do a fairly good job of staying apolical, IME, so I think its possible but it requires some pretty vigorous policing and self control from the members.

Or you only discuss games and designers who havent drank the kool-aid. Or gloss over the fact they did. You know. just a tender wistful sigh at the mention.

Quote from: FeloniousMonk;1068432And also its stupid to assume that you could ever NOT talk about politics - they have a way to creep their way into every hobby. You cannot escape it, and it is woefully ignorant to believe that you can set aside politics to simply talk about games. That is not how it works at all.

I disagree. My chatroom has been apolitical since 2001.

Quote from: Darrin Kelley;1068623I watched his videos on Youtube. Where he flat out admitted the timeline of events and his motivations. It couldn't be more clear. I saw it straight from the lips of the man himself. He bragged about the damage he was doing.

Got a link to prove it?

Quote from: Darrin Kelley;1068623His exposure of PEDOS in the MTG hobby and at WOTC was undeniably clear and motivated by his personal axe to grind.

Maybe so, but are you saying that it is a BAD THING that the presence of pedophiles in MtG events sanctioned by WotC where kids who are potential victims are attending?

Quote from: Darrin Kelley;1068623His money was not stolen. WOTC had every right to terminate his accounts with them. It's right there in their terms of service. Plain as day.

Usually when a company terminates your business with them, they return or refund the money invested.

Quote from: Darrin Kelley;1068623If you think I'm trying to condone pedophiles. You couldn't be more sorely mistaken. My view on pedophiles involves instant summary execution for those caught in the act. With a court injunction filed forbidding them from ever having a funeral or monument made to them by anyone.

You sure have a funny way of showing it.

I wonder what are the chances of this becoming a viable alternative to OBS for ttrpgs would be?
