Quote from: Sacrosanct;544122What, do they expect the person who made the quote to see what they said and create a SA account just to reply back?

No, it's just plain cowardice because they can snipe from behind a paywall with the reasonable certainty that they won't be directly confronted on their asshattery.

Quote from: thedungeondelver;544118This is the reaction of 4e fans to 5e.  And any other versions of D&D.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?!

I've been mentioned twice there so far, if I get a third do I get some sort of prize?  I hope it's an autographed copy of Apocalypse World or something.

It's a leather-bound copy of Poisn'd.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Actually, I remember how a couple people there were talking about how the fucked up rape stuff in Carcosa is fucked up but that the fucked up rape stuff in Poison'd was totally okay because it was "addressing a theme" and not "done for shock value."

I mean, come on, no one would know what Poison'd was if not for the shock value.  The game was conceived as a "let's do a naughty gross-out thing about pirates since Pirates of the Caribbean is popular."  And make no mistake, it is a fucked up game whose fans have played out fucked up things.  

But it "addresses a theme" so it's good to go, amirite?

Bound with human skin and soiled panties wrapped around it.

Eew.

Quote from: One Horse Town;544151Eew.

Yeah I know. Makes me think of Poisn'd too.

It's even worse - they're Baker's panties.

All that aside, to refocus: again, these "people" don't just like 4e, they hate everything that came before it to the point that there's just a blank spot in their brains where other people say they have fun playing 3e, 2e, etc.  They (as evidenced in that post, this isn't hyperbole on my part) literally cannot conceive that someone playing AD&D, OD&D, 2e, etc. is having a good time.  So they reject the possibility.  They'll apparently tell people*...I guess that they're lying?  when they say they enjoy AD&D and so on?  I guess that's what?

*=no, they won't, they'll sit behind a paywall and throw their shit at the glass partition when anyone comes to gawk, but no, they won't actively leave their echo-chamber and discuss the not-logic of their bizarro-world point of view.

If Darwinism and Halloween Jack are typical examples of SA posters, it won't be much of a confrontation.

Those guys are a treat compared the the g.txt all-star team.  I've had perfectly pleasant with Halloween Jack, at least.  And to be honest, I give both of them credit for actually engaging people instead of hiding behind the paywall.

Quote from: thedungeondelver;544118This is the reaction of 4e fans to 5e.  And any other versions of D&D.  This is people literally insisting nobody gets to have fun with any version of D&D, ever, except 4e.  

This is what's being fought against.  I know I kid with the AM-esque posts but these people need to fucking leave my hobby and never come back.  They didn't want D&D, they wanted...I don't know and don't care what they wanted.

However, like I said before they're going through the D-A-A-A-A stages.  That thread I linked to proves it.  So when I say things like "go back to Somethingawful", yeah, I'm not fucking kidding.

So..a couple people have issues and you lump every single 4e fan in with them.....:banghead:
