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). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
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.

Today modrons enter the chaotic plane of Limbo, while we are entering into the territory of the weakest chapters of The Great Modron March anthology.

One of those rare Planescape adventures that take place on the upper planes, this one faces the adventurers against philosophical conundrums and dangerous foes while they decide the fate of The Deva Spark.

Continuing with The Great Modron March, today's module is one of the worst ones not only in this anthology but in the entire Planescape lineup — The Modron Judge:

I love these terse reviews. As suspected, presentation is great. Otherwise the adventures are lacking in one area or another. Planescape always struck me as a setting better suited to improvisational RP.
