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.

It's anusing how we and this place is such a terrible people/place. Yet if they went to TBP the Regressives would not only ban them it would be on any reason or excuse.

Who is "We"?  Who is "them"?  Why is it that one must either a "we" or a "them"?

And if, as Jeff says, it is Pundit who decides this sites moderation who exactly is this "we" that Brady presumes to speak for that is so very generous?

Don't worry.  I'll proofread it thoroughly before publication.

Allow?  No, we WELCOME.  You are WELCOME to speak your mind.  We may not agree, but we will not censor you.

Ok tell the WE I am grateful.  I won't censor them either.  (Nor will I steal their lunch money).

The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy that dominates therpgsite, of course! With the Pundit's tyrannical free speech policy, poor lefties have only a few tiny corners of the RPG-oriented Internet where they can speak their minds freely, free from the fear of being disagreed with.

I see your less interested in actual discussion and here to be a disingenuous troll.

I am not a fan of every way Pundit mods his site. Yet I will not be banned just because I believe in a person right to a trial and to be proven guilty when accused of rape. Go to TPB and try that bullshit see how fast your threadbanned or permanently banned. The current narrative in rpgs is that the hobby was never inclusive or diverse in the hobby. Being social pariahs we never turned anyone away. Exceptions happened because some player and dMs are assholes. Yet we never turned anyone away from tables. Go over to TPB and argue .But you won't will you because trolls are gonna troll. No matter what we say we are wrong because your nothing but a shit disturber with nothing good to add to the conversation. So at least on this topic I'm don with you

LOL

That is why anyone who says this is the worst rpg forum on the internet is just being fucking clueless disingenuous troll on purpose. Notice how those same people never talk bad about rpg.net for fear of being banned or that it goes against the narrative of this being the worst place around.

TBP is just a cyberbullying site, where the mods and anyone they can abuse into line are the cyberbullies.

And Mearls browses there...

TBP still had good discussions on D&D rules and whatnot until fairly recently. It seems like a lot of good posters have just cycled out, or maybe been banned. I've never posted there in any thread not immediately relevant to D&D.
Every time I think the Forgotten Realms can\'t be a dumber setting, I get proven to be an unimaginative idiot.

I think that is one of the reasons why we keep talking about TBP. A lot of us remember when it was a worthwhile place to discuss gaming.
"Meh."
