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.

I didn't say he endorsed it.  I said he's arguing that abuse isn't abuse because it's punishment, and the kids asked for it by doing the offense anyway.  And that he doesn't get to make that call.


I don't really see that. I think he is describing what a lot of us experinced growing up and not really commenting on it. I am just not seeing his post as being all that outrageous.

Either way, this thread has gone full tangency so I am going to shut it down.

Pundit has previously claimed 5e is the way it is because of him. I said, if you take credit for the good stuff, you must take the blame for the bad stuff, too. He continued asserting his responsibility for the genius of it all.


I would absolutely LOVE to take credit for the paragraph. I in no way whatsoever consider it "bad stuff".


And while we're at it, I also absolutely love your resentment and sour grapes at my success, and 5e's.

Out of the whole hobby I think TBP, Paizo et al have the 5-6% covered without WoTC having to lift a finger. Oh! There we go! They're empowered and cater to their own needs. Problem solved, free market wins again without the need for correction.


What WoTC is doing is a reflection of the free market. Absolutely no one put a gun to their head.  No one was particularly even expecting it until the Basic PDF was released.
