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.

Warhammer - where did it go so horribly wrong

Quote from: DrewAll evidence on this topic is anecdotal. The last time I played a D&D campaign starting at 1st level was maybe 10 years ago, and almost everyone I know does the same (3rd-5th being the norm). Your experiences are likely different, but there's no way we're going to convince one another of our respective opinions in the absence of the hard data you requested.


Exactly.
Erik may be completely off his nut- but his detractors have no more evidence than he does to support their arguments.

Erik has claimed that no one wants to play WFRP in the way I and many others on this thread have. He's even asserted that the game is incapable of supporting such play.

I don't see anyone else doing that.

So they would have to be the same unfounded assertions as Erik's in order to be goofy? Other unfounded assertions (and there are plenty of them in this 250+ post debacle, I certain if you look you can find many) are okay?

If you want to point out others unfounded assertions in this thread then by all means do so. I'm not going to do it for you. My point is that Erik is talking out of his arse.

I thought about it, but we're over 250 posts; I  have the flu and really don't care to look through them all.
Victory is yours.

I have no interest whatsoever in claiming victory over you. I thought we were just shooting the shit.

Get well soon.

Everyone is. They just don't know it yet. :D

Not really no. I have an Xbox for that. When I got dice, I'd rather be tossing dice down, not learning how to plug my TV up Erik's Ass to get good reception for the images in his head... which pretty much look like re-runs anyway.
For you the day you found a minor error in a Post by Spike and forced him to admit it, it was the greatest day of your internet life.  For me it was... Tuesday.

For the curious: Apparently, in person, I sound exactly like the Youtube Character The Nostalgia Critic.   I have no words.

I think it'd be more appropriate if all of Erik's posts were typed in fan-boy l33t speak. It's the vibe I get anyway.

Seriously. But like a bloody car wreck, I can't seem to turn away from this thread. It's almost like everything I ever saw wrong with gamers summed up into one poster, like the Voltron of bad gaming. Awesome.

Precisely!
Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet.

  Sir, I salute you.

  After seeing this nonsense go 27+ pages I am in awe of your trolling abilities.

 Your technique is sublime: Abrasive, yet not quite offensive. You manage to be off-putting without actually being insulting.

And you keep them coming back for more!

 Pretenders take note: This is how it's done.
