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.

Marvel Classic, Star Frontiers, Gamma World 1e, Top Secret.  All great games at the time, but none really aged well for me.

I didn't know about the Dream Park game.  Loved that book.

MERP is one for me...I've been meaning to back to it again, but...somehow, it just doesn't happen.  I've kept all the 2nd edition stuff in case I run under Decipher's system, but I really don't think I'll ever run MERP itself again.

AD&D is another.  I would, in fact, far sooner run AD&D 2nd (the initial release, with a couple of the Complete books) just for some of the cleanup from AD&D

Another I now realise may never happen again is anything under the Palladium system.  As many others have stated, the system just didn't age well.

MSH is one a lot of other people have mentioned as similarly not having aged well.  Why is that?  Is it the Universal Table?  Percentile?  Something else?
Best,
Bobloblah
