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.

Which of D&D's surviving "founding fathers" had the most influence on the game?

Quote from: RPGPundit;1035304That's good to hear!

Maybe we'll have you on my upcoming Youtube show sometime.

If you like; you have my e-mail address.

Basically, I've been made to feel very unwelcome in this hobby that I've had so many years in by a number of individuals and groups. While I will continue to game, and tell people about my adventures, I do not fell a compelling need to support the people who kick me. Their loss.

He was the first to demonstrate that a dungeon could make sense.

To which most of us responded with "so what."  The vast majority of D&D players don't give a crap.
You should go to GaryCon.  Period.

The rules can\'t cure stupid, and the rules can\'t cure asshole.

I can confirm the same from my experience:).
And the rest of them migrate towards other systems because of said vast majority. Also confirmed by personal experience, BTW;).

The vast majority so give a crap about adventures that make some sort of sense.

Maybe it's not like that among the truly old school crowd but it certainly is for almost everyone else judging by what products are produced and subsequently sell.
