RPG-politics: Magic Deer vs. Midnight Shadow

Quote from: blakkieI've got the balls to say if you want your words posted over there you should suck it up, reel in your outlandish antisocial behavior, and play by their rules instead of being a coward and having someone do your dirty work for you. Or STFU and take your lumps as the martyr you profess yourself to be.

Hey, they started a thread there; not about BR, but specifically about ME, and something I said. Which they all proceeded to piss on, including throwing insults at me.
I have posted my response here. The fact that they aren't willing to let me post it there, and that no one here seems to have the guts to, even so much as a link, says a lot about who's scared of whom. Clearly many of you are scared of being banned, and clearly the mods over there are terrified of me.

What would that make me again? Ah, right, the only one with balls in the whole bunch.

Quote from: One Horse TownI want to hear more about Midnight. Anyone care to elucidate?

What do you want to know? Its a very cool setting BTW, but the analogy they tried to make between BR and midnight was utterly nonsensical.

Er, going by what was said earlier in this thread apparently Them didn't start this. So you can't respond on that board? Boo-hoo.

QuoteClearly many of you are scared of being banned, and clearly the mods over there are terrified of me.

Or they don't really give a flying fuck about anything further you have to say on the matter. Because they can come here and read it if they actually wanted to hear it. Unless RPG.net has somehow installed spyware on their computers that blocks your blog.

Or they don't want to risk you being some sort of RedRedderRedest nutjob so they don't register or post responses because they don't want to give you a shot at gaining their IP. *shrug*

Sorry bub, that just makes you a whiner about the wetspot after you pissed in your bed.

I've only seen the odd thread about it and it seems pretty cool. I think there's a place for a doomladen setting like that. I guess what i'm after is how PCs are meant to take the fight to the (dark lord (s)?) or aren't they meant to? Is it survival only or can you take the fight?

I've also heard that magic is dealt with differently. Is it feat based or something? Does it try to capture the feeling of the decline of the Elves in the Silmarillion or is it something completely different?

Okay, in case nobody else has, I linked to this thread on rpgnet so the pundit will quit whining.

You are most welcome.

Oh, looks like some of them had already read your blog at least. "Repulsed" seems to be the operative word. A pox be on the poor souls that give into their base curiousity and follow that link to this forum.

:pundit:

They can be as Repulsed as they like. Fuck, in many of their cases, their repulsion is precisely sign that I'm doing my job.

Your job is being an intellectually repulsive person? What's that pay, and how are the bennies? :raise:

Blakkie, when your psychiatrist says you need to keep taking your medication, you need to keep taking your medication.

But I find things much more interesting when I don't.

Midnight is a weird setting, in that it says outright that you can't beat Izrador (the Sauron-a-like of Midnight), but both games of it I've played, and all the campaigns I want to run in it, involve fucking Izrador and his Nazgul-a-likes over. I'm usually pretty sensitive to setting expectations like that, but something about that world just makes me want to whup Unstoppable Evil's ass.
