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.

Due to banning someone who didn't want to be here (although i didn't do that one, but hey, blame me anyway), a card-carrying KKK member and someone constantly threatening people and obsessing on harming children (apparently for political reasons according to Pundit! Won't someone think of the children!) I've asked to be removed from the staff. As i've asked about 3 times before and it hasn't happened, i want this one to be public so that it is.

Lame. I'm new but appreciated your presence as mod OHT.

Too bad for members of the site, but good for you OHT - while I think you'll be missed, I can't blame you for this decision.

When I first came here, a starry-eyed youth (yeah right) barely out of high school, I remember you were probably my least favourite mod, as you were always quick to close any thread that went off the subject of RPGs, even those that seemed like good-hearted off topics. After some years though, as time crumbled my teenage angst, I came to realise that ultimately, you were doing good work, going in with a mop and bucket where it was needed, and keeping the main forum as clean of politics and bullshit as possible.

So cheers man, and I hope this doesn't mean you'll quit the forums overall. And I do hope that if WFRP 4e gets made, you'll get a call, because the world needs more adventures about sewer jacks.
Furthermore, I consider that  This is Why We Don\'t Like You thread should be closed

Shame about you stepping down, OHT.  You were always fair and reasonable- you did good, man.

Your moderation usually bugged me, which means you were doing a great job.
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.

Yeah, I'll echo what others have said. Even if I got annoyed from time to time, OHT's moderation was what the site needed, if not what it deserved. But I also hope that doesn't mean OHT won't be stopping by anymore. We've lost too many of the old guard as it is.

Agreed, though OHT deserves a proper demotion ceremony. Something involving a drum and fife corps, the tearing off the mod insignia on his epaulets, followed by a slap and soul kiss from the handsome person of his choice.

A lack of moderation doesn\'t mean saying every asshole thing that pops into your head.

Tempting, but I'm married.
You should go to GaryCon.  Period.

The rules can\'t cure stupid, and the rules can\'t cure asshole.

Best thing you did for this forum.
