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.

The #dnd SJWs are trying to have a certain common #ttrpg word abolished. Here's my guesses to what they'll try to replace it with.
#osr

lol good luck with that.

Here I sit on a throne with a cat o' nine tails in my fist while being surrounded by my slaves.

"Mush... Mush... you useless bastards!"

The wokoids are master (race) baiters, it seems.

Spinachcat

I nominate "Cuckolds & Cocksuckers" as the new name for D&D.

It keeps the alteration, but now defines WotC's chosen player base in a more honest way so anyone outside of this freakshow of a hobby knows to stay far, far away.

Seriously, what teenager in their right mind would want to join RPGs with WotC at the hobby's helm? If I was in high school, I wouldn't go near this hobby.

Unless I discovered Palladium of course. There's zero chance RIFTS wouldn't have gotten my total attention as a teen.

That's a good name for it, I however propose we call it "Girldicks and Gunts".

If they're so very precious that Dungeon Master is a problem, then perhaps another hobby will be more their speed.

I hear knitting is very relaxing.

WRONG!
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

That article didn't even mention Knitler.

My recommendation for a replacement: Dungeon Commissar.

As if this surprises anyone...

Remember. There is NO LIMIT to what they can hallucinate as offensive.

Eventually they'll try to ban swords and spears from RPGs as those are symbols of the patriarchy. If they havent started already.

Did anyone save the tweet in which this wokist idea first appeared?
"Meh."

There is no limit because they find existance itself offensive; they didn't ask to be born and so hate God, their parents and society for forcing them exist in a world where they aren't God.

Woke is just Gnosticism wrapped in a veneer of scientism; it is the theology of unbelief... that the world is a lie and by your navel-gazing you can awaken to the truth and free yourself from its illusions; a man can be a woman because they believe it to be so and idiotic failed economic policies will work this time because they believe it will.

It's why, despite having run it in the past (for decades), I have grown to despise Mage the Ascension as it's core premise is the same Gnostic bullshit and I can now see the end stages of that madness.

So, yeah, after they purge Dungeon/Game Master from acceptable language it will always be something else... they are jaws without a stomach lashing out at creation because nothing ever fills them no matter how much they consume.

The part of DM I don't like is the "Dungeon" bit, because it's presumptive and narrow. Much prefer "Game Master".

Doesn't surprise me the SJW retards have a problem with someone being called "master" at the table...

I tend to always say Games Master or GM as I play a lot of different stuff.
