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.

Is the hobby really THAT fragile

Quote from: walkerp;257593This is such a misreading.  There are a few reasonable posters who are saying, "there are elements in both of these games that cross my line and that I don't feel comfortable with, but I recognize that they are just a small part of the game and most players will barely touch upon it, if at all."

We are calling puritanical the shrill voices of those who are screaming "burn!  Get these lawncrappers out of our hobby!"

Bullshit. You were claiming that we were "prudes" for being upset about the presence of the underage-sex elements of Maid.

You were defending the pedophiliac elements of the game then, why are you backtracking now, that jgants has named you? Droog admits it, why don't you?

Quote from: walkerp;257595I don't think I did.  And besides, I don't see how that can possibly compare to you talking about feeling up your 70-year old hispanic maid ("for kicks" was how you put it, no?) considering that is actually the real world.

Motherfucker.

Yeah, there's only one difference between my attack on you, and yours on mine, you see. I never said anything of the sort, where as you did accuse those of us who were opposed to the pedophilia in Maid of being "prudes", on several occasions, you stupid fucking cunt.

And someone (probably Jong) will pick through this thread with a fine-toothed comb and will point out exactly where you did.

Quote from: jgants;257580This stands in sharp contrast to society everywhere else where if you asked people if they'd be interested in a game with pedophile-themed overtones, you'd likely get the crap kicked out of you.
Ironically, the people doing the crap-kicking will still go home and watch a television covered in pedophile-themed overtones.

Quote from: RPGPundit;257587Again, for starters, as far as I can see Carcosa is being self-published, by a lone guy, from his BLOG.
I don't really buy the argument that one person committing a really bad atrocity is less bad than several people committing a less-bad atrocity, sorry.

Quote from: RPGPunditYou at least have the guts to admit to our faces what a degenerate decadent sack of shit you are, and not try to hide it in double-talk and justifications the way Walker or Fritzs do.

I don't think I have to admit I am decanent shitsack... I feel no need to play Maid or the like in sexual way... I just defend the right of perverts to play it as they wish.
You ARE the enemy. You are not from "our ranks". You never were. You and the filth that are like you have never had any sincere interest in doing right by this hobby. You\'re here to aggrandize your own undeserved egos, and you don\'t give a fuck if you destroy gaming to do it.

Sigh.

Some of us are actually trying to have a discussion here, RPGPundit, not win debating points.

But go ahead with your righteous froth.  Please don't take your moral fervour out on your underpaid, third world maid, is all I ask.

Fuck it, you know what, I won't wait for Jong. Its on PAGE FUCKING TWO, Walker, you sack of shit. You call us "Kneejerk moralists" and compare us to the "Christian Right" on PAGE FUCKING TWO, because we took issue with Maid's underage-sex themes.

How many more examples are there in the next 60 pages?

You scumbag lying fuck.

Which is actually worse in some ways, because it promotes the idea that people shouldn't bother to find the behavior unacceptable.  Which, in turn, gives the impression that such behavior is tolerated, or perhaps even condoned.

Why would we want to send a message like that to people?  Why shouldn't we hold people to a certain, basic standard of human behavior?

Which is what you indeed are...  and you should be well aware of that, so no point in telling you.

I (there should be You, very stupid typo) misunderstood my point... I've never said, that you have to accept everyone, if someone was playing maid in very sick sexual way at my table I would kick him out, because that's not accapteble at my table and I didn't forget to tell him so...

But at your home, behave as you wish as long as you aren't comiting any crimes.
