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: zircher on February 16, 2025, 07:38:55 PMI got banned for a similar thing with a Venger related product.  No tears over that, just confirmed that the site was filled with rabid weasels.

At least they haven't forgotten about me.  ;)

When I started looking for online gaming forums RPG NET was the first I found, but I never signed up -- the grape candy aesthetic was enough to make me wince and turn away.

Almost afraid to ask... what is the grape candy aesthetic?

A reference to the childish color scheme and layout of the site. So yes, your fear is a healthy one.
Old School? Back in my day we just called it "School."

I actually liked the old scheme and layout and am not a fan at all of the new look which is mostly stark white now. Makes searching through threads a real hassle where the old format was just fine.
