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: JollyRBProbably wasn't so much what Gary said. But his attitude of "you can do this...." and the feeling gaming was more of a community than a business.

Something that struck a chord with me personally I suppose.

Again my comments pertain more to the companion book.

I can totally see that.  Gygax went out of his way to explain that the individual gamer is part of a social scene and should be positively contributing to it.  Cheeto-tastic!

nice job Kyle, but I think you missed out environment which can play a critical part in certain kinds of games, and just having peace and quiet away from interruptions helps.

Sure. I covered that sort of stuff here. But for a forum thread, that's getting into needless detail. And I know about needless detail, I run GURPS.
