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: Ian AbsentiaA quick look over your list had me thinking that perhaps it isn't roleplaying games as a whole that you should be quitting, but maybe just Hero/Champions.

!i!

sorry to say it, but I agree, amen

Quote from: BagpussHave you joined a religious cult?

No.  I had actually considered joining scientology until I remembered my rule about not joining cults.

I haven't played Hero in awhile (much more then a year) and leaving the hobby is what I need to do.   I am burned out and that's a sign it's time to go.

Quote from: Geek MessiahI find it funny that you did not believe me at first and then when I posted the games that I am selling (which will soon be my entire collection you still don't believe me).    Oh well.

I am going for good.
How are the users at goofanforums taking the news?
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what\'s on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide.

Apparently the same way the people at my sci fi forum are taking it.   For the GOO forums the active users have dropped to less then half.   The RPG Outpost domain is expering at the end of November and wont be renewed. I have someone interested in buying the domain and keeping it going.

The GOO forums, well I offered to sell the domain for cheap and let someone take it elsewhere and continue it but so far no takers.    

I am considering shuttering the forums and putting the domain up for sale to get rid of it.

As much as I still love the Tri-Stat System, that's not a URL I'd want to have. I'm no fan of GOO.

Well it will either sell or I will let it expire when it comes time.   Either way I will eventually be rid of it.

Right.  Because people keep trying to talk me out of it when I have clearly said what I am going to do.   I would rather this forum concentrate only on the items on the page if you are interested in buying them instead of the "Talk me out of it fest" it has become.

Ryan, I have no interest in talking you out of anything.  I just want you to stick to your guns!

A young cowboy             named Billy Joe
            Grew restless on the farm
            A boy filled with wanderlust
            Who really meant no harm
            He changed his clothes and shined his boots
            And combed his dark hair down
            And his mother cried as he walked out;
           
            Refrain:
            "Don't take your guns to town, son
            Leave your guns at home, Bill
            Don't take your guns to town."
If there can\'t be a TPK against the will of the players it\'s not an RPG.- Pierce Inverarity

I am.  And to solve the problem if anyone tries a "talk me out of it" post then I will happily ignore them.

Problem solved and you don't have to worry about me repeating myself on this thread.

Work for you?

Then perhaps you are forming a cult? (It would suit your choice of handle)
