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.

Quote from: Ratman_tf;1085973I think Thanos obsessed with death as a concept is fine, but I think they could have sold it a lot better. I keep thinking about the original Star Trek episode The Conscience of the King. Not as an exact comparison, but an example of a  character justifying terrible deeds.

In the comics its all just to impress Death. Eventually he comes to realize that horrible death is not what death wants to see. Though by now thats likely been reset a few times and hes back to same ol same ol wacky impress death plans. There is also an ongoing rivalry between Thanos and Deadpool. One of my main irks with the movies so far is the lack of Adam Warlock as he played so prominently in the series and its sequels. There was hints of him in Guardians of the Galaxy but so far pre-Endgame no appearance.

Back on some vague thing called topic.
MSH statted out Thanos and I believe the Infinity Gauntlet at some point before TSR folded. Also HeroScape put out a Marvel Heroes set that included Thanos. But only ever did the starter set.

Doc, you are a nutcake, but you always have great picks for music.

Quote from: Eisenmann;1086307While that may be technically true, it's now a pale imitation of what it once was. And in my estimation, it used to be pretty danged good.

And welcome, myleftnut, and the rest. I just got here a little sooner. I don't pipe up too-too often, but TheRPGSite is now my go-to for RPG stuff. There's gold in that there search function, put there by people I trust on the subject, who are all over the political spectrum. That's what I miss the most about the other place.

That is my feeling too. As they drive off more people increasingly all that is left are the loons, many of which cannot separate fantasy from reality. BGG is going the same route, just slower as it is more spread out. But the SJW venom is steadily seeping into discussions and attempts made to censor or shut down games that the loons declare playing or even designing to be the same as doing that thing.

Gaming has essentually picked up some of the nuts who totally believe that a novelist writing horror or crime stories or an actor in a movie playing a villain does these things for real. Or wants to. And that goes way back.

Quote from: Doc Sammy;1086491For any RPGnet trolls lurking on our forum and trying to find problematic content on here to bitch about over at Big Purple, I have a message for you...

Anime is better than Marvel capeshit, Metal is better than Punk, Communism is tyrannical and evil, Anarchism is a crock of shit, personal horror sucks, and Harry Potter is the worst series of books ever written.

Rapeime. Now go back into the hole you crawled out of you worthless troll.

Quote from: Spinachcat;1086495Doc, you are a nutcake, but you always have great picks for music.

Well, I do try to pick the best songs.

Is it wrong that when I had to watch Avengers: End Game with my date, I was secretly and quietly rooting for Thanos to win?

I did get to have sex with her last night, so at least I finally got the three hours I wasted in the theater back.

Plus she likes anime too and we have a lot of other common interests, so I'd say we are still compatible despite her love of Marvel.

Also, I kind of liked the scene where Black Widow got the Soul Stone.

Black Widow has no superpowers and cannot fly, making her the most useless of the Avengers.

But that wasn't flying, that was falling with style!

Sorry for daring to like anime and not liking your sacred Marvel texts.

Why can't you capeshit-loving meatheads accept that I love anime and that liking anime does not make me a troll?

Go fuck the corpse of Stan Lee, you retarded meathead

So you can hurl crap at what many other people enjoy (for some reason...its like weird ass obsession with you? ) but no one should disparage what you like ? Its not liking anime that make you a troll, its the outbursts, ranting and throwing "capeshit' around like you're daring someone to say some one to say something. You don't Marvel (or any comics?) Ok, we fucking get it. You don't have to remind us every given opportunity. Try to grow up a little and realize you opinions not facts and everyone has them and its okay not to express them all the time. Or at least not a dick about. That's not Freedom of Speech, that's being social not a braying ass of a Troll.

Agreed and seconded. The quote can dish it out yet cannot take it applies to Doc Sammy. He can freely insult everyone, anyone, everything and anything. Don't you damn dare do the same to him.

He just wants attention.

Quote from: S'mon;1086510He just wants attention.

I don't know he used to be more rational and tolerant when responding and now just seems to lose his shit whenever challenged in a post. All fine and well and it is his/her right. Yet at the same time if one does not want to be challenged or get pushback do not post on a forum. Their is also a fine line between wanting to get attention and trolling. One does not have to continually shit post at every opportunity to get their point across. Worse get pissed off when they get negative feedback and criticism. If one is setting out to push buttons do not act like a hypocrite and get pissed when people react badly to ones trolling and pushing of other people buttons.

Same thing happened to NeoGaf, then split into Resetera which is 10x as insane. As someone that was there from pretty much the very beginning, it was infuriating to see the certifiably insane take over all of the mod positions and push half of the population out with their nonsense.

Quote from: Godfather Punk;1086501Doc,  I think you forgot My Little Pony in your list.:p

My Little Pony sucks balls and if I were in charge of things, the Bronies would all be gassed. :D

Bronies and the more degenerate members of the furry fandom are vile scum (and keep in mind that Black Panther is essentially a black supremacist furry)

I will let the late great Terry A. Davis explain the evils of men like Black Panther, the Bronies, and Facebook CEO Mark Fuckerberg

[video=youtube;S75DN0joNPU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S75DN0joNPU[/youtube]

Based Terry, may he rest in peace. He warned us about the evil men who wear vibranium fursuits and rape animals and of those evil glow-in-the-dark Wakandans who work for SHIELD

Terry A. Davis was a badass who built the Third Temple of Jerusalem using only a winch, a cinder block, and a Commodore 64.

When glow-in-the-dark Wakandan SHIELD agents were terrorizing him, he stood up to them and ran them over with his car and bragged about it online and STILL got away with it!

Terry A. Davis was a good man despite his illnesses, which is why Courtney Love and her fellow punk rocker Antifa buddies murdered him with a train.

You are wrong, I can definitely take it. I just dish it out more afterwards

Feel free to insult me all you want, but keep in mind I will insult you back. That's my policy.

Quote from: Doc Sammy;1086491Harry Potter is the worst series of books ever written.

In a world containing Dan Brown's Robert Langdon books, Robert Newcomb's Fifth Sorceress series, Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy and the Left Behind novels, I don't think this can be considered factually correct.

Okay, I will give you Left Behind, but in my opinion, it is tied with Harry Potter because of how much whiny Millennial Leftists love Harry Potter and don't read any other books.

You can like Harry Potter all you want, but for fuck's sake, read another book too!
