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.

Rubbernecking.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

It's like going back to a pool in which someone has been diarrhea blasting in for YEARS...

why swim there?

Who knows? It's a mystery.

Because there are creative people who talk about interesting things, sometimes.

Two super-cool points for that quote and Imaginos. One of the greatest theme albums ever.

Hey Alex.

Secrets of the Nethercity looks pretty good so far.
I'm gonna have to wait until the weekend to really get a good look at it. :(

You know I wonder how long until Big Throbbing Purple decides that all pre-2e D&D and variants Are Bad, Against Niceness, Morally and Ethically Repugnant And Literally Murder Marginalized People At A Rate Of Fifty Gorillion Every Day and ban all non-negative/critical discussion of OD&D, AD&D, and Basic D&D.

I'm pretty sure they'll throw 2e in there too. 2e was famous for its Cultural Appropriation of Marginalised Groups (Zakhara) and/or its Eurocentrism (Birthright) - ie it had lots of campaign settings.

You're late to the party. I haven't been following it, but they've been talking about how horrible D&D is for weeks now. It started with a thread on how it was time to remove drow and eventually someone started a new thread where people could complain about all sorts of stuff they found inappropriate in older editions.

There's no way 2e survives the purging of all unwoke history.
