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.

WotC Bringing AI into D&D?

To the ignore list you go, I'm done with your disingenuous, lying and cunty ass. Feel free to keep on lying about me and saying me calling your cunty ass for lying is me "lashing out". TWAT.

I couldn't find the ignore function on this board.

I know Simple Machines board s/w has the function but looks to not be enabled here.
It exists in Geeky's head... like so much of what he spouts.

Yeah, I don't know. I've never actually used the feature anywhere, since I'm not afraid to hear opinions I disagree with.

I remember a time when it was the SJWs who proudly blocked everyone. I'm certain there are no parallels here, though.

I've been lurking on this site long enough to know that there are a lot of things Geeky has said that I agree with, and I know he gets heated, but man...! His last few posts were crazy!

Looks like it's already happening:

No reason to be concerned...

"Technology never brings out negative societal changes, and those that don't want them are poor fools to be spat on and scorned." - GeekyBugle

"All the doom and gloom is coming from the big guys, because they know these tools will allow people without a budget to compete with them, it's only F.U.D." - GeekyBugle

Anyone who's been praising the use of AI and anyone with concerns over its use might have negative effects in that other thread should have nothing but praise for WotC making this move. They're visionaries for jumping into the field early and squeezing every last cent of profit out of their IPs by cutting out flesh and blood artists.

I, on the other hand, am free to say without hypocrisy that this is a shit move by a shit company and anyone who views this as a good thing is embracing a frankly soulless ideology.

So you are fine with quoting fabricated quotes about me? Without bothering to read what I have wrote none the less. (Hint, I haven't denied EVER that tech might have deletereous effects)

Then you quote an authentic one, why? to make believe that I really said that other stuff? (And I'm sure me calling you out for being a lying TWAT will be misscharacterized by you as me "lashing out")

For you to be able to call me a hypocrite you'd need to find me calling out for banning AI GMs, can you?

No, you can't, but for some reason you have a stick up your ass and a hardon for me lately, I don't swing that way dude, even if you were a lying twat of the female persuassion I'm happily married so you'd still be out of luck.

But you do you boo, do carry on being a disingenuous lying twat I'm done with your cunty ass.
For the bolded, I apologize, I pulled it from a quote attributed to you in another post without realizing the quote itself had been altered.

I didn't do enough due diligence on the quote in question and that is entirely on me.

But you still think I'm a hypocrite for saying that the "AI" isn't yet at the state where it can replace a human GM. Equating that with me calling for the opposite ergo I should be in favor of banning all other "AIs"...

To the ignore list you go, I'm done with your disingenuous, lying and cunty ass. Feel free to keep on lying about me and saying me calling your cunty ass for lying is me "lashing out". TWAT.
When did I ever speak to using AI as a GM? I agree that AI replacing a GM isn't ready for primetime.

However, I was referring to the use of AI Art in D&D products and how, if you believe its a good thing for small publishers to use it, its just as good for the big boys to use it (and that I'm not of fan of either using it... mainly because it isn't ready for primetime either).

I'm sorry you're so angry about everything all the time.

Social media (including online forums) is poison. Facebook did an Emotional Contagion experiment years ago that proved that people could be mentally manipulated through social networks. And while the effects of this are more readily apparent in SJWs NO ONE is immune and pretty much everyone who engages in social networks is exposed to these effects, even if the stories they share are presumably about valid concerns.

If all you do is lock yourself in a digital room all day long to yell that the sky is falling eventually your mind will be fucked too, even if the sky really is falling. And here, everyone is locked in a digital room with an insular community that mostly thinks the same way, and most of the few dissenting voices are lunatics with garbage arguments over at Pundit's Forum with full on 24/7 political discussions that go absolutely nowhere. But regular posters here can just pat themselves on the back at the end of the day about how right they are, while ignoring the psychological damage that they're doing to themselves by engaging with this type of content excessively.

People here are pushing their brains through a digital grinder.

Oh, I agree! There's a reason I'm not very active on this site. I'll pop on every once in a while to read the latest topics, but avoid engaging in lot of these discussions /debates. The "free speech" nature of the site means that, invariably, someone is going to spin politics into a topic, and things just spiral from there.

I think, over all, social media is a net good, but like anything in life, too much of it can hurt you.

By your "logic" I should have "blocked" Jhkim a long time ago, and others that are also leftwing. Maybe you're reaching so much you're already tickling your brain.

Except it does exist, your ignorance doesn't change reality. But I guess I also "imagined" you being an ignorant twat.
