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.

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.

You know you're doing something right when the sjdubs specifically say you're not welcome. LOL

Erm, I'm not a lawyer, but aren't a least some of these statements technically defamation?

QuoteIf you're the kind of person that the above statement offends, you can fuck off. If you're the kind of person that pals around with wannabe culture vulture white supremacists like RPG Pundit, wannabe satanist christian conservative transphobes like Venger Satanis, rape apologists like GrimJim, or are one of the libertarian dweebs that do free PR for the above, you can also fuck off.

And I'm not sure if the one about Venger qualifies, but it's certainly false and obviously contradictory (Satanist, but Christian?), like these people openly don't give a fuck what the truth is. They just like to declare shit into the ether. Not that this is a revelation for me, but every time I see open brazen falsehood (or "Anti-Truths", like Jordan Peterson calls them) in writing it just grinds my gears.

"WHAT IF I'M A NAZI?"

IMO, some dudes ought to take a good look in the got-dang mirror sometimes.

(And transphobe? LOL. I'm against truthphobes who need to lie in order to create a false trans identity that denies basic reality like biological gender, or that blocking puberty is somehow magically reversible when it isn't.)

People must walk on eggshells around those culture Karens.

I imagine these kind of people end up in OSR because they are insufferable rules lawyers and strict interpretationists by the letter of the rulebook.
They have to do OSR because they argue the joy out of everything else.

Greetings!

These pussies are so "stunning and brave" with their Internet-Inspired bravado.

If the Waffen SS 1st Leibstandarte Panzer Division rolled into their neighborhood locked and ready to rock, these fucking clowns would fallout on the street like hysterical sheep Reeing and begging for mercy.

They are all so pathetic.

"one of the libertarian dweebs that do free PR for the above..."

Ouch, I feel called out on that one.  But, I'm also a big fan of Fate Accelerated Edition and a bunch of indie titles.  So, I'll just pencil in 'RPG agnostic' and call it good.   ;D

Who is this person, and why do they presume to be such an authoritative expert on the OSR?

I'm not impressed.

1.- These idiots don't know what the OSR is (they love to claim that PbtA games are OSR)
2.- Even if they knew and were going to do something OSR it would be shit.
3.- They are hoping for a video from all of the REALLY famous developers they are decrying to push their BS jam (free publicity).
4.- As if anyone in their sane mind would want to participate in their shit.
5.- Isn't that gatekeeping? I'm informed by the SJWs that gatekeeping is bad mkay?

Dude, these cucks would shit themselves if three angry Mexican chicks in a 70s low-rider rolled down their street.

So if Pundit, Venger and Grim were coming to the game table, who do you want to GM and who would be better as players?

THAT would be a real OSR game jam!

I wonder does Itch.Io allow slander?

I mean Grim Jim is not a rape apologist that's just an sjw rumor (and was totally taken out of context) And Pundit is not a Nazi. There's a huge difference between saying you'd 'walk beside' Neo Nazis for a free speech rally and actually being one of the cnuts. The enemy of my enemy, etc.  Although I always thought it was a silly thing for him to say.

So does that mean I can join their gaming jam?? I mean, I really want to. I don't think my life would ever be complete if I wasn't able to join the Monkey Genitals or whoever they are's gaming jam.

That was my first thought too. Would be funny to see Monkey Paw Games, who probably cleared tens and tens of dollars in sales last year, have to go on Twitter, Reddit, and here to do a famous Zak-like apology for putting that in print.

I bet they could also take action against itch.

Yup. This is why I mentioned the stuff about defamatory statements in my earlier post. This wasn't just some rando making a social media post, but a game company making an official statement for an upcoming event at a game publishing site. There has to be something Pundit and Grim can do about it.

Indeed... I think Pundit or GJ could contact Itch Io directly and perhaps threaten legal action. ;)

Being called-out for exclusion literally made my day. 

To be fair, "satanist christian" isn't too far off the mark, but everything else is bullshit.
