SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
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.

One really bad thing I discovered about Lulu was that I found I could no longer download the Stonehell PDFs I had bought from them a while back. Luckily I was able to find them on an old PC. But Drivethru is far better for PDFs.

Unless you get banned there for wrongthink.

Another big problem with DriveThru RPG is that someone can buy your PDF, complain about it, and the corporation will refund the buyer at your expense WITHOUT EVEN INFORMING YOU BEFOREHAND.  Of course, the buyer still has your product since he downloaded it!

That's a very specific accomplishment that has been achieved by only a few. It's not really so much wrongthink as waving the flag at the bull, then going, "Oh, mercy! Oh, mercy me!" when you piss off the people you intended to piss off in the first place.

I never lose a minute of sleep over PDF pirates. They aren't customers, that is not a pot of gold you can ever get.

But when DriveThru corporation helped someone leech my pdfs, that's something different.

Proudly banned from DriveThru.  Fortunately, I had everything I ordered from there backed up.
