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.

Yeah. The term "Xandering" is dumb and self-aggrandizing, and a non-person label would have been better.

On the other hand, using a dumb term isn't "theft" nor is it transphobic. Alexander didn't plagiarize anyone, and he correctly credited the dungeon designs that were inspiration for his essay. Lots of people (myself among them) had never known about Jaquays until Alexander promoted their designs through his posts.

Weren't you one of those who contemporaneously owned DMGR1 back in the day?  I thought we were fellow devotees...

Nope. I bought the DMGR1 and Caverns of Thracia a few weeks ago after Jaquays' death, when I heard more about her designs. I posted about it from reading it for the first time.

Back in the day, I had a bunch of the AD&D 2E historical sourcebooks and a few others. I loved most of the historical campaign books, but most of 2E left me flat and I just stuck with my 1E material. I later tried 3E briefly, skipped 3.5E and 4E, and then played more with 5E.

Anyone who is or aspires to be a woman should be aware of the phenomenon of prior names.

Let's go on another 15 page tirade about transgender bullshit.
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.

"Dead naming"... lol.  Another ridiculous term used by the usual suspects.

"Dead name." Why so dramatic?

"The name I used back when I was a dude." Too level headed?

The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out
The ones that crawl in are lean and thin
The ones that crawl out are fat and stout
Your eyes fall in and your teeth fall out
Your brains come tumbling down your snout
Be merry my friends
Be merry

Are you lost, sir? Because there are plenty of other discussion threads which are not about prominent and beloved trans woman RPG writers and artists.

The trolling dick.
I'm a middle aged guy with a lot of free time, looking for similar, to form a group for regular gaming. You should be chill, non-woke, and have time on your hands.

You see, he's a cunt, a metaphorical one, because dicks fuck cunts, and I bet he doesn't.

i hope Pundit is watching. Seeing the sheer amount of hatred toward trans people that has been allowed to fester in his own forums. And I very much hope he will take action to deal with it in a decisive way.

Freedom of speech does not excuse hate speech. It does not offer refuge for bad actors to be abusive to others.

I notice you didn't get triggered by pawsplay's racism, sexism and heterophobia.

You aren't pulling me into that. Frankly, I think all bigotry sucks. And that's all I am going to say about it.
