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.

Quote from: Marleycat;556610You guys started it with all the "Good, Bad, and The Ugly" and "The Magnificent Seven" avatars. I just wanted to join in on the fun.:D

I just switched my avatar to a movie character I liked.  Next thing I know, everyone started joining in on the same theme.  Did I create a meme, or whatever word the kids are using these days?  Do I get a prize?
D&D is not an "everyone gets a ribbon" game.  If you\'re stupid, your PC will die.  If you\'re an asshole, your PC will die (probably from the other PCs).  If you\'re unlucky, your PC may die.  Point?  PC\'s die.  Get over it and roll up a new one.

OK, switched to hat wearing avatar.  Although, I dug Bronson with an axe too. :)

As silly things go, I'm okay with this one.  My particular choice expresses how I regard the whole fad.

Quote from: danbuter;556613I can't believe it took me to use the best cowboy avatar ever. He'd have just beat up Blondie, Tuco, and Angel Eyes while they were still eyeballing each othe.

Ahem...
Yeah, but who gives a fuck? You? Jibba?

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

Quote from: Bloody Stupid Johnson;556618I'm all for having a storygames ghetto, but the beating up of Ghost Whistler in this thread seems a little bit excessive.

No, not at all.
"Meh."

As a first time poster, I can't agree with the way Ghost Whistler has presented his case, but I can understand what he is saying.  I must admit I am confused as to what represents a story game versus a role playing game.  Can someone help a new guy out?

You either know not what you ask (in which case I'm sorry for what is about to happen)- or  you do (in which case, well played)

Either way, welcome to the RPG site.
You are posting in a troll thread.

Be nice Benoist he is asking honestly just as I did. Besides Val Kilmer is cute and "Doc" Holiday is awesome.

Welcome to RPGsite though it does look like you've lurked here for a long while. :)

Was.  Time was not kind to Batman, unfortunately.
"In a way, the Lands of Dream are far more brutal than the worlds of most mainstream games. All of the games set there have a bittersweetness that I find much harder to take than the ridiculous adolescent posturing of so-called \'grittily realistic\' games. So maybe one reason I like them as a setting is because they are far more like the real world: colourful, crazy, full of strange creatures and people, eternal and yet changing, deeply beautiful and sometimes profoundly bitter."
