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.

With Mongoose, would it still be green with the "Traveller 2022 Update" shenanigans? Can't tell if it's a wokified version or just a cash grab. Either way, $30 for a PDF is fairly steep.

I didn't notice any Woke when I looked at the preview on Drive-thru.

That's what I noticed too, so I didn't know how true those musings were.

And Happy, less "see woke people everywhere" and more " the woke at TBP are praising it HEAVILY" so I wanted to see what was up

Ehhh, HD can't see woke anywhere, so he's the same as what he's accusing others of being...

Sometimes people that disagree on many things can still find agreement that a product is good.

I myself am not much of a Traveller fan (mechanics are fine, but I mostly find the setting dull and I'm not fond of the 70s retro-futuristic styling), but the book doesn't have any heavy-handed preachy shit that I could find.

That's not true at all. However, I don't have hypersensitive reactions to it like some around here that go into anaphylaxis upon reading a singular they.

I wouldn't consider questioning the principle that we must embrace an individual's self-definition of things no matter how ill-reasoned - on penalty of monetary damages in my country if you refuse - or refusing to support those who do support this principle, a case of hypersensitivity.

Regarding Traveller, Mongoose Matt has said part of the reason for the update was to remove male pronouns, and he referenced removing art that was made for "the male gaze" in the first edition. This is in the traveller discord. He is more subtle than other types. Lots of women on covers as of late.

He also trashed Brexit in his most recent state of the mongoose.

Dude is simply opportunistic.

He's quite lucky then that there's no FREE/PWYW alternative system people could use instead of his woke shit no?

Cepheus is a good alternative, and a lot of good things are coming out of that sphere of OGL. Cepheus Deluxe apparently is doing super well, and I know Zozer is allegedly releasing the rulebook for Hostile this month.

Edit: seems that people have learned from overdoing systems like what happened with the d20 craze, but that would probably be another topic.

Hey there Ocule, great list.
Really needed to keep an eye on the maniacs.

I notice though that you have an error in one of the company's names

Here's what you have: "Ice Crown Enterprise (Rollmaster, HARP)"

It's actually Iron Crown Enterprises, ICE is the acronym they use.
And it's Rolemaster, not Rollmaster
Their site: http://ironcrown.com/

Keep up the good work!

So, how long before this white knight is revealed as a sex pest of some sort?
That's always the way it turns out with this kind of story of a man "championing" women to men's detriment.

Yeah, this list is undoubtedly "hate speech" in the deranged mind of a Leftist. I wouldn't be surprised if it were nuked tomorrow.

Why not keep a copy there and see if the sky actually falls or if it's just a bunch of hype?

Step 1: The sky is not falling

Step 2: Wait and see if more sky starts falling.

Step 3: The sky is falling and that is a good thing.
