SPECIAL NOTICE
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.

You damned dirty apes!

Quote from: Dominus Nox"Fu Manchu" is an offensive anti-chinese stereotype, you anti-asian racist bigot.
Hey, I wasn't the one who named him that.  And it's more of an ignorant imperialist anachronism.  And, yes, many people do find it an offensive stereotype.  And, as Jerry Seinfeld once said in the "Donna Chang" episode, "How can it be racist if you like the race?"  In other words, I suggest you take that accusation up with my wife and kids. :p

Oh, hey, and how 'bout that orang?  I think it's kind of telling that "orang-utan" translates from Malaya to "forest man".  Indigenously, they've traditionally been considered another people, albeit with remarkably poor hygeine.

Quote from: James McMurrayWhen is someone going to come along and claim the chimp on monkey violence is a learned behavior caused by the interference of Man on their habitat?

Actually, there was an article from last year that argued that chimpanzee violence has reached an all time high due to habitat destruction. As their habitat is destroyed, bands of chimpanzees are forced to compete for the same small area, and this has made their usual struggles even more vicious than usual.

Makes sense to me, and doesn't bother me in the slightest. If they wanna compete with the big boys they need to move past the pointy stick phase like us higher primates did. :)

I was surprised to read that the Chimpanzees were eating bushbabies.  Bushbabies aren't for eating.  They're for teaching Spanish and putting in your top hat to provide moral support while you carry out your dastardly deeds.  Clearly.

Ok, what the hell.  That's the second reference to the same obscure 70's cartoon, on two different boards, ina very short span of time.

I don't think I've ever been on that site.  It might be where people grew up.  In Canada, the UK and Europe it wasn't that obscure a show.  Peter Ustinov did voice work on that show. :)
