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.

Swinging back to the Bryant case, TBP staff is probably now trying to figure out how to not look like utter tards considering everyone's running the clip of Bryant trying to shank the hell out of that girl.
The media that are trying to build a "case" here uniformly cut away from the stabbing moment (which, BTW, shows how big the knife was - it was not a small Swiss Army Knife...)

Of course the internet is now full of "armchair policemen" who say how "they should have used tasers" or "fired at the legs"... Once again, just looking at the video shows how a person was, literally, half-a-second away from being stabbed. A taser is slower than a bullet. Taking aim needs time. The other person was, BTW, in the line of fire. Aiming at the body of the attacker avoided the danger of a stray bullet hitting the attacked.

Joy Behar and a few other commentators have suggested that the officer could have fired a warning shot into the air. Demonstrating their ignorance about guns and physics.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

Taking it back to the topic, they just gave Phil Masters a week ban for daring to suggest there's nothing wrong with the disadvantage "Slave Mentality."

I saw that and I was like, "Phil Masters?! Phil Masters?! Oh, RPG.net, what hast thou become?"

Though strictly speaking, it wasn't that Phil claimed there was nothing wrong with the disadvantage -- indeed, he explained at least twice that it was meant exclusively as an NPC construction element and wasn't suitable for PCs -- it was that he dared to suggest, even if only implicitly, that the feelings of those who found the name of the disadvantage upsetting were neither acute enough nor common enough to take seriously.

Daring to imply that someone else's feelings aren't your problem is verboten over there now.

We know his mistake was trying to have a conversation over there. Either you instantly and unconditionally agree, or you're a Nazi.

There he goes with alternative facts again. In reality, even if a poster instantly and unconditionally agrees, that just means the poster is a pre-symptomatic Nazi.

Literally the day before, a 13 years black girl stabbed to death another 13 years black girl in Cincinnati. No one cared. Apparently, wokes are just fine if blacks of any age stab and kill other blacks. Amazing.

Who gives a fuck about cincinnati
I don't want to play with you.

Next on TBP: Cancel Culture against Isaac Asimov.  ::)

The tail end of the 70s iteration of this cult tried that with Asimov and he told then to go fuck off if they didnt like a breast showing in a comic in his magazine. Next issue had more boobage and a short story about a guy who is so SJW he flips out ofer the mere thought of a breast and cuts off his own hand to stop it.

Go Issac.

Lest we forget, prior to this two other users received seven-day bans for abstractly discussing slavery in a fictional setting.


Its pretty much one faset of the censorship movement. No one can talk about rape except the designated moral guardians. You cant have a game about trying to stop rape because "Rape is bad!" and so on ad nausium.

They got bored with that stick after breaking it and picked up another one to wave abound till they break it too.

The weirdo wokeists saying 'oh knife fights are just a teenage thing' aren't helping.

Did they watch a little too much West Side Story or something?

My off-the-cuff, strictly amateur analysis is that they're judging it by Hollywood fight scene standards. It's the same reason that retards make excuses for 'the knockout game' despite people dying from being sucker-punched in the head.

But in their mind, nobody could get seriously hurt, oh no. That can't happen!

Puerto Rican gangs?!?! That's either racist or cultural appropriation.  We're going to lock this thread until we decide which of those will get you the longer ban! [TBP]

Returning to the Winterland ban: for the record, Winterland has been a TBP member since 2008. 4600+ posts. Prior to this, he (or she) had a threadban and a warning (separate infractions) in 2018, three years ago. The thirty ban seems incredibly excessive, even for so-called 'A-game' threads (which in my opinion amount to mods hunting over bait, as such threads are inspected quite stringently for wrongthink).

Frankly, if some wankstain of a mod handed me a thirty-day timeout over this, I'd just wipe the website from my bookmarks and never come back.

(comes in)
"Excuse me, is this seat taken?"
(sits down)
...
"Never mind me. Carry on"

Welcome to this hive of scum and villainy. I see that you’ve been a visitor of TBP for 10+ years and 4K+ posts. When you made that post did you know that you were going to catch a ban, or was it any kind of a surprise to you?

I can neither confirm nor deny that I am this person who has a similar name as mine. Just in case the mods or admins over there are lurking this thread to find any reasons to up his ban to perma.

But I think he expected at most a threadban. Armed with the foreknowledge that the Damage report, a woke and progressive youtube channel that is affiliatied with, but not quite as insane as The Young Turks, had come to the same conclusion that the police wasnt really to blame. Media was. Both sides of media.
As they pointed out, Media had shown one of two pictures. One where Adam Toledo had a gun, the other where he had his hands up less than a second later.

So when Winterland saw that Tango Samurai only presented one side of the story he must have thought that "If only the people saw the whole picture, they will agree that it was a more complicated situation than they immediately thought"

In retrospect. He should've posted the video instead. Not a picture he probably found on 4chan /pol

I don't think it would have made a difference. This whole thread is about how RPG.net board culture and moderation have gone down the shitter, if you need any examples of why.

Everyone bitches about rpg.net but not many people actually do anything.

me, i had a run in there after logging in on a dare, didn't last more than 5 posts. I got a 3 bad and a ton or shit, abuse, lies and threats for a post about anti asian racism when they scumbag murdered those asian women.

I said i was amazed it happened because i live in an area with a notable asian presence and we have never had any anti asian racism here.

BAN for that under some bull;shit about denying racism. Christ on a cock, i stated a fact, i was not denying there was anti asian racism obviously, i said it surprised me as there was none in my locality.

I also said rthe guy was probably a scumbag who had yellow fever and was rejected by asian woman.

BAN for that as Yellow fever was an intoleeable term on that shitsite.

Uh, yeah, the ONLY peope i ever heard yellow fever from were asians, but apparently the white knights running rpg.net took it upon themselves to take offense for something most asians don't take offense to or find almost amusing.

I got threats about how a 3 day ban was so lenient and only becaue i was a noob.

Yeah, 3 days later i told them to fuck off and also said that as a sane, rational, reasonable leftist progressive, and not a mindless drone in the woke borg collective i found rpg.net a cancer on progressiveness , one that justified every horrible and generally false stereotype the right had about the left. I said it justified the fox news term "Fascist left" as it was exactly what fox would have you think everyone to the left of mussolini is.

I also said it was time someone did something about them and let them know i was going to contact various hard right news outlets and give them links to rpg.net and it's absolutely fanatical ultraleftist policies in hopes that some right wing media would attack it and hopefully cause it some grief.

As a moderate part of the left wing i had to hold my nose and watch my keyboard and monitor after access sites like infowars, fox news, etc, but i sent them links about some of rpg.net's really just  fascist speech policing and banning of people for the slighest dissent, klike the guy who bot banned for working for ICE or the woman who was banned because she refused to condemn her husband after he was accused of something. (My god, condemning family members for not denouncing a loved one accused of an impropriety? HOLY STALINISM BATMAN! Also sounds like something Mao tse Dung would have done.)

So, yeah, i hate the radical far Qanon  right, but i also hae rpg.net as a cancer on my side of the political spectrum and if i can get one evil to attack another, I'm ok with that. I keep hoping to see  a surprise expose on rpg.net on some far right media, i'd have to ehar about ti since i don;t watch them, but i'd laugh if it happened.

maybe some advertisers pull out, maybe SKOTOS feels some heat, maybe they have to make some changes. Or just end up collapsing and being rebuilt with a mod team that doesn't justify the fascist left tag and model themselves on stalin, mao, etc.
RPG.net is a cancer on the left and a disgrace to reasonable progressives that should be denounced and shunned by anyone considering themselves a progressive.
