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.

How the fuck hasn't Koltar posted another episode of "Koltar's Harem" in this thread yet?

Probably because I NEVER claimed to have a 'harem' -  that's why.

I did have a an RPG campaign for 4 to 5 years that had three women and one guy as the regular players - with visiting players being women more often than not. (The regular players told their friends it was fun - they made characters)

And now this thread is complete.
Yeah, but who gives a fuck? You? Jibba?

Well congrats. No one else gives a shit, so your arguments are a waste of breath.

I had an ultra-hot GF once, who also happened to be really fucking smart -- a jackpot kind of girl. She is the type who gets hit on randomly on the street or subway; or harassed in the clubs (dudes can be animals).
There was always some sort of curiosity in her for hobby gaming, mostly because her father was somewhat of a geek and she was surrounded by the medium growing up.
When we got together, there was a genuine interest in "learning" to play RPGs. I made it sound fun, was passionate about it, and it would've been just another thing we could do together. So I took her with me. We played Savage Worlds and she did really, really well, so much so, that my pal -- who was the host -- enthusiastically called me up the next day to tell me he saldomly has seen a newbie engage so well with the hobby like she did.
Sadly, she didn't like it at all. She tried. It wasn't for her. Even though she played well, purported to the endeavour, and made it seem like she was into it, she just wasn't.

She wasn't faking it. She just wanted to be part of it. Good thing is, she didn't pursue it further when she saw, that it wasn't for her. I wouldn't have wanted her to be there just because I was, just to bore herself to death. To some degree, I was proud of her decision.
