Them, when I Trigger Every SJW Swine in the RPG Hobby at once: "How can we take down the Pundit? I know! We'll call him The Final Boss of Internet Shitlords!"
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DYgxRK1W0AA8OOR.jpg:large)
Me: "Wooooo! I did it!! I am The Final Boss of Internet Shitlords!! SUCK IT, MILO!!"
And all this just because I disagreed with their notion that people who don't play RPGs (and maybe even dislike RPGs) should get to be policy-determining members of the RPG "Community".
In other words, I said "D&D should be for people who play D&D".
Who knew Godhood would come so easy?

PS: of all the swine I've been dealing with, my favorite so far was this one guy, "Darren Steele".
He demanded that we go to private DMs to talk, because he "didn't want this to be about ego or point-scoring".
He did this AFTER he posted a link to a Youtube video he performed himself where he basically CALLED ME A NAZI IN SONG (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsCL2OJXi5Q).
PPS: Before anyone tries the joke here too, don't worry, I'm sure Milo won't take my statement about him 'sucking it' literally. He can tell I'm being metaphorical because my cock isn't black.
You should make this Tweet into t-shirts and sell them (the profits would go to maintaining this forum).
Passes MILO in one turn. Ha!
RPG.NET is mostly DreadGazeebos.
Did you ever notice how it's types who came in from the outside who've proclaimed that "our hobby"* has a "sickness" and must be "cured"?
...
*=regardless of what the hobby is, TTRPGs, TT war games, model trains, sci-fi novels, comic books, etc.

That's not coincidence; that's their motivation and purpose.
This post brought to you by the Two-Minute Hate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Minutes_Hate). The Two-Minute Hate, keeping you Hating the Right People since 1984.
Congrats...past all the RPGSite mods, past your average bag of feculent scum, past the kobolds, the orcs, the ogres, the giants, the dragons, and the gawds is...the RPGPundit. You da boss!

The only sickness this hobby has is anonymous people online arguing about it. Having your real name out there isn't proof against saying retarded shit, after all we have Mike Mearls. But it does help.
Both Pundit and DreadGazebo need to have a coming out party. They'll feel better, and will consider more carefully what they post.
Ok. but are they in Lion & Dragon?

I was going to say that I'm sure your masters are very proud of you ... then I remembered that they hate you even more than the SJWs do.
How many books did you sell the last few days spending all of your time arguing with people on Twitter?
Pundit, if you were not on Twitter none of this would impact you. Let it go. Spend your time writing cool games and making money.
Congrats, Pundit.
I wish I could piss off RPG.net to the levels you have. RPG.net is a festering cesspit that the Goths and Punks use as a giant toilet. The internet and the RPG community are both better off without it.
Quote from: Doc Sammy;1029912Congrats, Pundit.

Don't mix luudes and smack, son.

This is sound advice. I second the opinion! :)

Where's your sense of adventure?
be careful Pundit, I think seeing themselves as gods is how rpg.net's mods got started towards douchebaggery. however, so long as you don't start banning people who disagree with you, you should be OK.
This belongs in the Pen & Paper Roleplaying games section why?
At least the "gatekeeping" thread is sort of about the hobby.
Maybe Pundit trying hard to become a conservative e-celeb is part of his L&D promotion tour?
You're making enemies on social media and you want to be congratulated.
Do you realize how fucking easy that is?
Fine. Here's your "participation trophy."
Congratulations, you're annoying.

Try going to Catholic school in the 80s while being a D&D player. :D

I probably sold quite a lot thanks to this. Every time the Outrage Brigade comes after me, I come out the other end more rich and famous.

This is totally relevant to the hobby. I'm the hobby's most dangerous person now.

Ok, show me what shitstorm you caused that got as much response as this, and then I'll give a twopenny fuck what you think.

Oh, don't be upset with Xavier Onassiss for reacting completely rationally to the situation. This I'm-a-big-deal-because-I-got-people-to-be-upset-with-me-on-Twitter thing is such low hanging fruit and so ripe for lampooning that uncreative comedy mediums like newspaper comics or nighttime talk show monologues would find it old hat.
Hopefully someone here that is willing to subject themselves to the horrors of Twitter can come back and report on whether they think people other than you would walk away from your exchanges with the same impression. But until then it's water cooler talk and our friend Joe telling us about the verbal altercation he got into last night and how he so totally told them off and how ridiculous they were.
You cultivated a forum where people are skeptical of braggadociousness and unafraid to tell truth to power. This is the consequence of that.

Getting people offended on Twitter isn't difficult or something to be proud of. Twitter != real life. Remember that image macro from the 90's about arguing on the internet is like winning a race in the special Olympics?
And yet, here we all are, arguing on the internet over Pundit bragging about arguing on the internet.

Quote from: Voros;1030849LOL. Fucking please. :rolleyes:
I honestly don't care if it even approaches the truth (and I think I've been rather upfront of my skepticism on that front).
The point is, Pundy has (and I'm super paraphrasing here) theoretically created a site with a people's reps live and die with the cohesiveness of their arguments, people take ownership and responsibility for their statements, get no handholding, there will be no censorship, etc. etc., so-on-and-so-forth. If he suddenly finds that people are skeptical that he's really a big man because he (in his own estimation) owned a bunch of people on Twitter, him getting mad at the skeptics instead of reflecting on whether he has made his case (or whether the type of people he has cultivated would be impressed with such a stunt) is a fruitless endeavor.

And every time you go after the Outrage Brigade, it's a shot in the arm for them. It's a marriage made in Heaven. I'm so happy you all found one another.

Yeah, it's stupid. History have disproven it. Arguing on the internet helped determine the current leader of the free world.
Again, getting two or three people offended on Twitter isn't difficult. Getting thousands of outraged 'inclusivity activists' angry at you in an entire hobby is quite the feat.
