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.

Talk about sensitive!

It may be off topic, but I rather like Nina and from the times I've encountered her in her role as mod she's seemed rather a good one.

So atheists have been abused, treated badly by clergy or they\'re stupid.They\'re just being trendy because they can\'t understand The God Delusion because they don\'t have the education, plus they\'re just pretending to be atheists anyway. Pundit you\'re the one with a problem, terminal stupidity.

Nina is an example of what happens when you teach your children that standing up to bullies is wrong.

If, by the above quote, you are implying that I'm a bully please retract that statement before I rough you over and take your pocket money!:D

That's odd, actually.

Gamers themselves were always the one thing you could count on being able attack viciously on RPGnet with reckless abandon, and the mods would get pissed at YOU if you took issue with it.

You couldn't say a whole lot that could even be moderately construed as an attack against a lot of groups, but you could run about expressing your basic hatred of gamers, call them all losers, unwashed, etc., and get off just fine.

I always found it ridiculous that the one thing on a gaming site you were alllowed to attack with such bigor was gamers.

Just for the record: having met Nina in person at GenCon '05, she is entirely worth having the hots for. :keke:

I've never found a 'holier than thou' attitude an attractive character trait in a woman, no matter how physically attractive she is. Nina's physical attractiveness is irrelevant to the matter of how she moderates. My asking Balbinus if he "had the hots for her?" was merely a joke.

"Worth having the hots for?" Specify, please. Do you mean "she's attractive, but only in the context of a Babylon 5 fan gathering" or do you mean "I'd stick it between her melons!". How hot are we talking here, Dan Davenport, if that's your real name? And if Dan Davenport is Dan Davenport's real name, are you the real Dan Davenport? Are you a Dan Davenport's Dan Davenport?

  Yeah, we want a patented Davenport review of how hot Nina is.

Can't think why women would feel unwelcome or uncomfortable here. Chicks dig this kind of talk, really!

Mr. Analytical

Hehehe Mystic Loafer I like your style.

JimBob lecturing me on political correctness and being polite?  Where's the real JimBob and what have you done with him?

I wasn't making a joke about women anyway,  I was making a Joke about Dan Davenport's famed powers of evaluation.

Sarcasm aside, it would be interesting to know just how many female gamers there are frequenting these forums?
