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.

This topic from Monte is all really funny, given that he's probably the single most responsible person for starting the current trend toward RPGs having to have a rule for everything, and (along with his 3e WoTC cohorts) creating an environment that actively encourages players to fiddle with and outright-manipulate the rules to buff up their characters or gain advantages.  

Its not wonder he hates character creation. Its mostly his fault that character creation has been turned into such a struggle between manipulative players with a sense of entitlement and GMs who don't want their game wrecked from the start.

Hollywood celebs don't socialize with the general public.  You took too long to get your money.
