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.

Congratulate me, Peasants!

You should go to GaryCon.  Period.

Quote from: Voros;1030849LOL. Fucking please. :rolleyes:

I honestly don't care if it even approaches the truth (and I think I've been rather upfront of my skepticism on that front).
The point is, Pundy has (and I'm super paraphrasing here) theoretically created a site with a people's reps live and die with the cohesiveness of their arguments, people take ownership and responsibility for their statements, get no handholding, there will be no censorship, etc. etc., so-on-and-so-forth. If he suddenly finds that people are skeptical that he's really a big man because he (in his own estimation) owned a bunch of people on Twitter, him getting mad at the skeptics instead of reflecting on whether he has made his case (or whether the type of people he has cultivated would be impressed with such a stunt) is a fruitless endeavor.

Quote from: RPGPundit;1030696I probably sold quite a lot thanks to this. Every time the Outrage Brigade comes after me, I come out the other end more rich and famous.

And every time you go after the Outrage Brigade, it's a shot in the arm for them. It's a marriage made in Heaven. I'm so happy you all found one another.

Quote from: Ulairi;1030760Getting people offended on Twitter isn't difficult or something to be proud of. Twitter != real life. Remember that image macro from the 90's about arguing on the internet is like winning a race in the special Olympics?

Yeah, it's stupid. History have disproven it. Arguing on the internet helped determine the current leader of the free world.

Again, getting two or three people offended on Twitter isn't difficult. Getting thousands of outraged 'inclusivity activists' angry at you in an entire hobby is quite the feat.
