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).

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.

StormBringer: They called chemistry useless... they just did... yeah it's mostly useless for generating wormholes, but WTF, I mean only way to achieve complete control over earth's ecosystem, curing illnesses and maybe even immortality is trought biochemistry, biology, genetics, mathematics and informatics and related subjects... not trought particle physics and these are more important than having working FTL engine, especialy, when without knowledge how to terraform some other planets...

I just guess that creating FTL engine, gravity modification and such isn't all that important now... with exception of new power sources, these are allway important...
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.

They said chemistry is useless for getting to the stars. Context is important; it's an awkward quote, since it's pretty specifically about propulsion.

Chemistry and material science will still be vital for building whatever we build.
This forum is great in that the moderators aren\'t jack-booted fascists.

Unfortunately, this forum is filled with total a-holes, including a bunch of rape culture enabling dillholes.

So embracing the \'no X is better than bad X,\' I\'m out of here. If you need to find me I\'m sure you can.
