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.

Quote from: RPGPundit on April 05, 2025, 03:28:57 PMJeffro is a grifter and a liar, and uses Gygax to reinforce his own idiotic ideas about AD&D which were not how anyone actually played.
Most of the BroSR don't actually play D&D. They just enjoy being in an online community where they can brag about how tough they are and being a community where they feel safe to share how anti-semitic they are.

The awful thing is that Shadowdark's author recently said she thought they had interesting ideas. I'm guessing no one has told her about all the antisemitism and anti-gay diatribes by Jeffro. I tried, but she might have me muted, because like a lot of people she doesn't know who her real enemies are.



Greetings!

I'm guessing that Kelsey was simply being diplomatic, and polite. Kelsey is strictly professional, and obviously works hard to cultivate gamers and fans--and while not being offensive to anyone or getting sucked into wallowing in the mud with trolls. Kelsey seems to place a very high priority on her game books being accessible and enjoyable for anyone and everyone. Kelsey is not interested in arguing controversial subjects that have nothing to do with gaming in general, and more importantly, her business, her products, and her reputation as a professional writer and game designer.

That's my impression.

Semper Fidelis,

Yes. This. Kelsey is never going to get involved in discussing anti-Semitism in the  BrOSR. Just like she won't discuss Woke stuff, including Woke anti-Semitism. Her no politics rule is very strict. And she doesn't respond to "You should not associate with these people" posts.

Looked thru #BrOSR #Jeffrogaxian for a few minutes on X. Harmless.
