The worst kept secret is out, and another virtue signalling wonder - AuraTwilight, owner of the soyman OSR Discord server - has been outed for "abuse, emotional manipulation, and grooming", and removed from faer (correct pronoun use, folx!) position.


It all began in a very promising way:

And then BAM! grooming scandal!

Whoa! Who could have seen this coming? I mean, after THE PREVIOUS top mod (Not Chris McDowall, the original founder, but another genderweird) was outed for THE SAME FUCKING THING. It just keeps happening.

And of course, another pit of the Woko Haram has been proven to shelter sex pests. These claims were not new. They were around for months. They were posted on various sites, including /tg/'s OSR thread. Yet these fine people did FUCK ALL until now, while posting glibly about the problematic elements in the OSR. How nice. Well hey, I may be a crusty old white man with bad views, but I am sure as fuck happy I am not part of THAT crowd.

Yiff in hell, motherfuckers!

At first it was just LGB. Then LGBT. Currently LGBTQ. 

LGBTQP - The acronym of the future, here today.

This is my shocked face => -_-

It won't be OSR, but I can't wait for the Wok-andans to go after my game because I have zero paragraphs dealing with gender identity or homosexuality or how you can two daddies or mommies or picking your pronouns and all 30 of the example PCs are "cis" (well, except the golems technically, but they also "present" as the same sex they were built to resemble). In fact, other than which species can crossbreed I don't discuss sex at all.

This is because...

A) None of those things requires rules and I have limited page count.

B) The implied setting is two-centuries past an apocalypse that saw the population crash from 8 billion to 8 million and 200 years has only gotten back to about 60 million (population growth of just over 1%) because of regular monster attacks. If your public face isn't trying to perpetuate the species then you're most likely going to be expelled from the community as a waste of resources.

Frankly, anyone as obsessed about ANY topic as the wokeratti are about sex/gender is almost certainly mentally ill. That they continue to prove it? Again, this is my shocked face... -_-

"Hypno-abuse"? 

I left the OSR discord when McDowell turned the server over to "it" and that screed was posted. Glad I did. The conversation there was never really worth participating in anyways. Completely unsurprised by the accusations.

Cue that Fry gif. "I am shocked. Shocked! Well, not that shocked."

I mean, good gravy, it's like every time you scrape a 'woke' guy, or 'male feminist', lo and behold...

Not just hypno-abuse, furry hypno-abuse.

That's a rock I'm not turning over any further.

I loved "The Big Bang Theory" but I never considered it a documentary...

Edit: I must however admit that reading about this specific brouhaha here...

...Kind of stimulates my intellectual curiosity - a bit like those zoologists who study the behaviour of monkeys when they throw their feces against each other.

I joined way back, but never posted because they never seemed to talk much about gaming at all. This desire didn't increase when the weirdos took over. I wonder if this furry wonder even played. A lot of the posting crowd seemed to be non-gamers, or at best tourists.

Tenkar should be glad to have been banned from that Discord. I never joined that Discord, but it doesn't surprise me to hear from others that very little gaming discussion occurs there. It sounds like it's probably used more as a way for groomers to identify targets.

Also, being a furry is more of a sign of derangement than any shade of color someone decides to change their hair to. Have purple hair? Ok, a bit of an odd choice, but really doesn't prevent me from hanging out with you and having a conversation. Want to think of yourself as an animal and dress in weird fetish costumes? Run the hell away from that as quick as one can!

What did he get banned for?

Basically for not being super supportive of Contessa, not anything specific that I know of.

(sarc)Tenkar focuses too much on the games, don't you know? (/sarc)

I like LGBTQWERTY.  Most people young enough to be really into the acronyms don't get the reference.

LGBTQWERTY, that's when you headdesk hard onto your keyboard,  right?
