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.

Hmm. Both her Optimism and Hope (best character stats ever, btw) are at 50, which leads me to wonder, is her glass half-empty or half-full?

At first misread that as 'Random Merlot Table'... which kinda also made sense.

Optimism and Hope? Strength and Power? Tell your kids that they suck at game design, with their useless redundancies.

Seriously, though, this is pretty cute.  And what makes it cute and not sad is that its something they came up with themselves, and not something they were goaded into doing by their gamer parent.  I swear to god, there's going to be a whole generation of geek's kids who are going to end up giving thousands and thousands of dollars to therapists to deal with how their loser dad made them play RPGs because he couldn't find adults to play with...

Pundit, stick with railing against imaginary enemies and regurgitating Nineties political slogans, 'cause you're waaaaaaaayyyyy out of your depth giving advice to parents.

I just imagine parents not playing games with their children because some anonymous guy with a made-up persona would object on the intarwebz.

:hmm: Tough choice.
