ACKS is now a forbidden topic in TBP

Quote from: Kyle Aaron;1051766Nonsense! They'll keep the storygames.

Games where you kill orcs are Problematic, games where you rape cabin boy corpses are not.

Even posting the review of Poison'd you're referring to would get you banned and probably get a hate mob try and get you deplatformed.

You may be right.

No, because it's a storygame.

Remember: I was banned, and I only ever talked about AD&D1e and similar games. And that was, god, eight years ago or something. Meanwhile everyone was desperately defending Ron Edwards and his "literal brain damage like child abuse" comments.

I would be extraordinarily surprised if anyone were banned for discussing Poison'd, provided they were speaking of it favourably. If they rubbished it then all bets are off.

I got so tired of TBP I banned myself.

I pretty much just use TBP to try to trade/sell games from my collection. But I'm about to start moving that to Facebook as it seems more successful there.

Everyone should do that.

It's a gift that keeps giving.

I backed the Nethercity kickstarter at the "give me copies of all your core stuff" level because I liked how the system looked and hadn't had a chance to get it yet.

You didn't tell us you were also including the Bonus Secret Stretch Goal: "Piss off the fuck-stick brownshirts in the RPG hobby"

Is it too late to get some extra copies of that as add-ons?

More or less, it's what happened to me. Tired of having to measure my words, I decided to quit. I still have an account there, but I don't write anymore. Will I ever go back? Perhaps, but things will have to change a LOT.

I must admit to being in an identical situation. Does anyone know of a reliable way of measuring what their active membership is? I go there every so often and look at what's 'changed' in the thread topics listing, and changes in this seem to have slowed to a crawl in the last year.

Expect it to get worse or at least stay at its current rate of worse over there.

Wow.

The fact Bailywolf has been so thoroughly indoctrinated breaks my heart though.

Quote from: ponta1010;1055168Does anyone know of a reliable way of measuring what their active membership is?

No. And that's exactly how they want it. Because that data might contradict what they claim their membership to be, which includes permabanned members because they "don't delete accounts". I would not be surprised if almost a quarter of their members cannot even participate on the forum.

Yet somehow this place is worse than rpg.net go figure.
