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.

So true! I've met a few NGO clowns and you're 100% on target. I have to include them in the setting background for my Cyberpunk game in a cycle of neopotism between gov'ts and corporations.

:D I like to think of it as an ethereal (or celestial?) Geiger-esque alien (xenomorph... :rolleyes: ) bursting out of people's gestating hopes and dreams. ;) Makes it prime gaming fodder for many games, like CP2020, Kult, In Nomine, Changeling, etc. ("Aww, the big, bad, solo monsters aren't hard enough for your crack squad of murderhobos? How do fight a corrupted and repuposed institution? :D Yes, let's dive deep into hell tonight, my players.")
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.

Quote from: Kyle Aaron;1092844One of the interesting things about white supremacist groups is that they actually kill a lot of other white supremacists - for not being white supremacist enough.

In Australia in the 1960s, the Communist Party directed its preferences to the Liberal (actually a conservative) party, because they thought the Labor Party wasn't left-wing enough.

Most groups with extreme political, religious etc views spend a lot of time and effort policing their own for not being "pure" enough. That this is counter-productive to their cause seems to have escaped them.

Quote from: Spinachcat;1092854Its quite common with all extremist groups. Deviation from purity is the most vile heresy.

Considering the people in these groups, their need to wipe out heretics among them is a feature, not a bug.

That's fanaticism for ya. And it will continue until only the most desperate, deluded, and dangerous remain.

Quote from: GeekyBugle;1092924Yeah, and that rag should only be linked in archived links.

The problem with that is if the archive goes down, the links are lost. Remember donotlink.com? It was the weapon of choice for Anna Kreider and Zak S to take potshots at each other. Now all that drama is lost, like tears in rain.

I admire its purity. A survivor, unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality.
