SPECIAL NOTICE
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.

QuoteI had another player who left in the middle of a 4 hour one-shot based on 80s slasher movies because I wasn't incorporating her backstory enough.  That she wrote a 3 page backstory for a character for a one-shot based on 80s slasher movies should have been a warning.

(Dunno why quoting doesn't work for me right now, but anyhoo.)

Three page backstory for a one-shot 80s slasher movie is cuckoo bananas. I don't know if I could have held my tongue and asked, "Name me one 80s slasher movie teen victim or final girl that has a 3-page backstory -- and repeat it back to us for the edification of the table." >:( Seriously, this is roleplaying not bluebook simming and fanfic, go to the correct hobby.
Just make your fuckin\' guy and roll the dice, you pricks. Focus on what\'s interesting, not what gives you the biggest randomly generated virtual penis.  -- J Arcane
 
You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.
