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 RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Enjoy.

Does anyone have a clue as to what's going on with yabaziou? I searched through this thread, and the only prior mention of anything related to Jews prior to his mad raving about a "Jew Card" was a Monty Python reference.

He's going on like a mentally ill homeless person I've come across on occasion, retorting with cuss words rather than anything close to a rational argument or explanation.

Is this what being on tumblr does to you? His sig also says he's reading Polaris, could I blame his reading that for his incoherence? Is he some AI that escaped a Google lab that's gone rampant?

At first I thought it was just his problem understanding English and he had misunderstood some comment.

Now I just think he's a nutter who also doesn't happen to speak speak English as his primary language.

Honestly, it's only a matter of time before Pundit banhammers him for being a retard.

That would never be a reason for the use of the banhammer around here, in itself. If it were, we'd have no users :)

I'd also note that this whole thread--which you yourself necro'ed starts with someone who was forced to defend their claims of alleged "abuse" by me (including things you asked about here) in court admitting they were lying when they were asked to put up or shut up.

I've noticed that media of all kinds will always take the side of the perpetrator in libel/slander/defamation cases. Jesse Ventura comes to mind: after taking Harper Collins to the cleaners, reporters not only sided with the creep who defamed him, but they even regurgitated the creep's lies:



Matt Taibbi is another example. When the Guardian and The Nation. slimed him and he filed suit and forced them to retract, he was and still is made out to be the bad guy. While my hat's off to anyone who drags a liar into court and twists their balls until they cry "UNCLE!", I wonder if it's worth it.
Jesus Fucking Christ, is this guy honestly that goddamned stupid? He can\'t understand the plot of a Star Wars film? We\'re not talking about "Rashomon" here, for fuck\'s sake. The plot is as linear as they come. If anything, the film tries too hard to fill in all the gaps. This guy must be a flaming retard.  --Mike Wong on Red Letter Moron\'s review of The Phantom Menace

Yes. I will have to do better--and far more--than the people who came before.
I won a jillion RPG design awards.

Buy something. 100% of the proceeds go toward legal action against people this forum hates.

I may be wrong, but it sure as hell looks like the tides are steadily shifting against people -- and organizations -- that try to blur the line between news, opinion, and smears.

It's one thing to be a rando slapfighting on an Internet forum, but I suspect things are about to get a bit more exciting for people who think they can run around quoting imaginary anonymous sources for whatever line of bullshit they want to run as 'fact'.

Talking utter bullshit in person among friends is as old as language. Trying to do the same conversations on the internet with no thought to whether what one says is true (The tech companies have encouraged this relaxed view to encourage people to use their services) is a different ball of wax. It's out there forever for people to look at, and if one's utter bullshit trends that can cause more harm than the previous in person conversation amongst a handful of people, and is a much bigger target for being able to point to evidence that some bullshit was spread.

If by 'tolerance' you mean that I haven't piled on in this thread to attack Zak? I don't know the details of the matters at hand to attack Zak. I don't see that I've defended him either. I did note that treating statements one puts to the internet with the same sense of casualness that one might bullshit with friends in person at the gaming table is a mistake, but that's not defending Zak. Zak comes across to me as being a bit of a jerk, but most of the internet is populated by jerks.

Regardless, my 'tolerance' of Zak, as you put it, has absolutely nothing to do with why you decided to bring Jews into the discussion here. That's on you, and you have yet to explain why you decided to do so. To bring up Jews in a discussion that has nothing to do with Jews seems anti-Semitic. No, I don't care if you had parents who helped Jews during WWII. You don't get credit for their good deeds.

I suspect you respond to me with non-sequiturs because you had no valid reasons for bringing Jews into this discussion. You're trying to avoid taking responsibility for your anti-Semitic rant about "Jew cards" because there is no reason Jews should have been a topic of this discussion.

So, one more time, yabaziou, why did you use the term 'Jew card' in this discussion, and how does that matter to this discussion?

Dude, embrace the power of "and."  Like, Zach can be a total douche and you can also be an unmitigated ass.  Both are possible at the same time...

Well, Zak is a Jew...whose behavior and alleged behavior does (coincidentally) exemplify many anti-Semitic canards.

Not to suggest that these stereotypes are less than abhorrent or have any general validity.

I'm just actually a bit surprised this is the first time I've seen his Jewishness mentioned by a hater, given the degree of overlap between OSR and alt-right.
