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.

Matt Coleville. He's one of my favorite media D&D guys. He runs old school style games with lots of politics and factions involved, and dispenses with advice on his channel to give people a different taste of D&D compared to Matt Mercer. They're all good friends.
Battle doesn\'t need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don\'t ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don\'t ask why I fight.

Cool, thanks. I don't play D&D much but the insights can be used in pretty well any RPG.

S'mon

Colville is definitely my favourite online Youtube D&D advice giver. Mercer is not bad but he doesn't do the deeper more thoughtful stuff, his focus is generally on presentation. And there are a lot of terrible "Youtube GMs" giving horrible railroad/fudge/illusionist type GM advice I really dislike. Colville isn't in that paradigm at all, though neither is he some Old School Viking Hat GM - like me, he'll kill your PC but he'll feel bad doing it. :D

I'm still grateful to this thread for inspiring that campaign. I'm starting another one next week here in Melbourne at Goodgames, anyone else around?
