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: ArrozConLeche;1067349Sounds good. I'll try a firm "Do what you want with your own time but do not, I repeat, DO NOT blow up or molest children at our table, dude. That shit ain't cool."

Please stop trolling them.

Quote from: Ratman_tf;1067348Shot from the hip, I think most SJW views start out reasonable, and then get unreasonable gradually. Where racist views start out unreasonable. If their politics come out at all during the game.
I do agree that most racists seem to want to protelyze. Again from the hip, I think a lot of them have gone down the rabbit hole, come to some unfortunate conclusions, and want to "red pill" their aquiantances and friends.

Preach it brother. Having lived in the Seattle area for 40 years, it was very illuminating to watch PC culture take over. The blue collar Seattle of grunge is long dead. The cities now primarily full of people from elsewhere, who brought in and reinforced a different culture. Truth be told, I was disgusted with many of the SJW types I worked with in the industry. While I disagree with much of what Pundit spouts, he's spot on about the authoritarian left.

Quote from: ArrozConLeche;1067356Oh, right  *slaps forehead* Good advice.

I don't think he's actually moved on from ideation to action...so I guess I should just suck it up and game with a dude who gets a hard on for little boys. It feels a little icky, though, so I still would like to know how to talk some sense into him.

Kinda stumped on the ISIS guy too.

Man, your out-trolling me now. I guess,....... kudos?

Offer to hang out with him at his house, and when he starts jerking off to kiddie porn, swat him with a rolled-up newspaper.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

What trolling? I just don't want to be responsible for some sicko turning into Humbert Humbert because I excluded him from our table.

Quote from: SP23;1067353Oh Jeff, you got me. I'm so envious of them.
We know, it's OK. There is no shame in being envious of your betters as long as you admit it. You just have to try harder to improve next time.

Quote from: SP23;1067353It was a beer and pretzel 5E group that got hijacked by a super serious DM, who knew the group was a beer and pretzel type. Hence the self-sabotage. The older players knew it would be a fiasco, but we wanted to give him a chance, even though we had told him to his face the challenges he would have if he tried to run his campaign like he had in the past.

Yup, keep backpeddling....

Might work, but then again I don't want to be there when his place gets raided. I'm wondering if the authorities would understand that I was just trying to reach out to this person. You know, and trying not to be an exclusionary jerk. My intentions are good.

Well, if that happens and you feel responsible, then you could always just go get on several internet gaming forums and tell the story of your experience until you feel better about yourself.

I think the more likely danger is that he's into getting hit with a newspaper, and then you're part of his fetish scene.

Just for the record, I don't advocate "reforming" anybody. If you can't get along with someone at the gaming table, then you should try to. If not, then go your separate ways. You're unlikely to change anybody's mind in this sort of situation, especially going into it with the attitude of reforming someone.

Not a problem as long as I can monetize it.

There are only a handful of people even involved in NAMBLA anymore, so if anything you have a fucking Unicorn at your table. Capture him and you could probably get good $ from a zoo.

If you don't save him now, he might end up getting fucked to death by a stallion, happened to Mr. Hands in my hometown 13 years ago.

This thread is going to some strange places.

Gospel from a guy who claims to have been big in the RPG industry and yet refuses to identify himself or provide any proof.
