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).

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.

Apparently Gencon is banning people from their chat room for even asking about this.  Lots of good info to be found here on twitter-

The Magic the Gathering subreddit has strobed through all the colors: it happened and while it's terrible maybe now he'll watch his mouth, it happened and it's wonderful : punch what we define as a Nazi today!, it probably didn't happen, it didn't happen at all.  Oh, and, like big throbbing purple, "We'll lock/delete any threads on this topic" now that the paint is drying on the facts.

Bloody hell.

Gencon's failure to say anything, not even "We're looking into it" is shameful.

I think maybe it's time to report this story to DrudgeReport. Probably has national interest.

I'm pretty sure Michelle Malkin and Rush Limbaugh would be interested.

Maybe Dennis Miller, it's political and has a built in joke.

If that is the person they identified then add kickstarter fraud to his list of misdeeds. Game funded in 2013 and still nada. Oh but he can work on plenty of other stuff. Thanks for the free cash I guess.

Yeah I just saw that. Guy was flying to Essen two years ago during his last official update. How nice for him.

Now now let's not level fraud accusations on a KS that's only missed deliverables by 5 years.  He's still half a decade behind The Far West.

But I digress: at least Skarka didn't assault anyone and then try to disappear down the rabbit hole.

If it is the same guy, and indicators are it is. Then it is wryly ironic that his game was worded to appeal to SJWs and then he ripped them off.

QuotePushed to the brink by pervy medieval blacksmiths and sweaty basement dwellers alike, killing monsters is the easy part - now the Glamazons must face their most difficult challenge - finding female armor that is actually functional! Help our intrepid heroes smash, bash and crash through goblin heads, dragon hearts and the male gaze alike; then stare each other down in a battle of wills for who gets the spoils!

A campy takedown of the visual depiction of female warriors throughout nerdy pop culture, Glamazons vs The Curse of the Chainmail Bikini features amazing original artwork from world renowned pinup artist Joe Capobianco along with its social commentary so you can have your (cheese)cake and eat it, too!

Apparently he and his business partners do card games. Tiny weird card games.

Quote from: Brand55;1051227He was formerly known as MTGHeadquarters, I believe, but WotC banned him from Magic for "harassment" because he had the wrong opinions on social media. Now he mostly does anti-SJW videos on YouTube, although I've seen him cover other stuff like the troubles that Stan Lee has been having lately.

Actually he was banned for continued harassment of a cosplayer. Banned in every single capacity from all Magic: the Gathering events. The guy is a piece of shit.

Yet again, for the record, ALL political violence is wrong.

Free Speech is ALL OF US defending the rights of PEOPLE WITH OPPOSITE OPINIONS to freely express themselves.

I do hope the person who was assaulted presses charges to the fullest extent of the law.

This bullshit ONLY stops when people push back.

Ok...I read a bunch of the comment sections about this incident.

I am VERY concerned about the number of people who approve of the violence.

Denouncing your political opponents is a gazillion percent fine, even with mega-vitriol, but supporting physical attacks on people who vote differently? WTF.
