I've seen secondhand where they respond to someone reporting an obvious call to violence (three guesses against whom) and say basically this isn't a threat, if you keep reporting it you'll be reported to the admins for harassment.

Whole site is cooked and taken over by left-wing crazies.

Not the whole site. But the RPG section sure is heavily infested. Especially any D&D ones.
Others just have their own little pocket despots power tripping. Nothing new there. Thats been a problem since BBS and probably fanzines before that.

Well I must say I am sorry to hear of his passing I hope his family is well.

May he rest in peace.

I'd welcome other information on this if it has real sources.

According to the original breakdown by Tenkar, that dedication was something that was written years ago and has appeared in other products not associated with Justin LaNasa (let alone Dave Johnson). His latest video goes into it in depth and people should watch it because it's apparent what happened had nothing to do with Ernie.

It really does feel like a generation is passing. The giants of my youth are starting to move on and seek new worlds to explore. It's quite sad.

RIP

Thank you Ernie.  Lord guide you on to the real next level.


Tenser's Transformation (Alteration-Evocation)

Level: 6
Range: 0
Duration: I round/level
Area of Effect: Personal
Components: V,S,M
Casting Time: 6 segments
Saving Throw: None

Explanation/Description: Tenser's Transformation is a sight guaranteed to astound any creature not aware of its power, for when the magic-user casts the dweomer, he or she undergoes a startling transformation. The size and strength of the magic-user increase to heroic proportions, so he or she becomes a formidable fighting machine, for the spell causes the caster to become a berserk fighter! The magic-user's hit points double, and all damage he or she sustains comes first from the magical points gained; so if damage does not exceed original hit points, none is actually taken, but if damage beyond the additional amount is sustained, each point counts as 2 (double damage). The armor class of the magic-user is a full 4 factors better than that he or she possessed prior to casting the spell (AC 10 goes to 6,AC 9 to 5, AC 8 to 4, etc.), all attacks are at a level equal to those of a fighter of the same level as the magic-user (i.e., the spell caster uses the combat table normally restricted to fighters), and although he or she can employ a dagger only in attacking, damage inflicted by the weapon is at +2 additional hit points, and 2 such attacks per round are mode by the magic-user. However, it is worth noting that this spell must run its full course, and the magic-user will continue attacking until all opponents are slain, he or she is killed, the magic is dispelled, or the Transformation duration expires. The material component for casting this dweomer is a potion of heroism (or superheroism) which the magic-user must consume during the course of uttering the spell.
