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.

Quote from: RPGPundit;320463"Erick Wujcik has declared this the Official Amber DRPG forum".  He did this out of friendship to me and out of confidence that I'd be able to keep Amber RPG discussion alive, and yes, out of approval of my perspectives on Amber and RPGs.

Considering this is one of the only places that still has a decent amount of activity, I'd say that in THIS case, he backed the right horse.

And Jibbajibba just started a very promising Throne War game through this board, proof if needed that the place isn't just a gathering of bitter non gamers. I find discussions here very stimulating and open minded.

We won't let Eric Wujcik's opus die.

Ah, I'm just ribbin' ya, big fella. I post here myself, afterall!

Although a little more tact towards other members of the community who don't post here wouldn't go amiss...

My current frustration is the product of a couple of years of intended "tact", being inviting, being communicative, and getting ZERO response.

Whatever the case, communication is key here and.... I don't see any communication.

I think we all are wishing Diceless By Design the best and hope to see something from them.  It's unfortunate that we are seeing nothing at all.  This also makes it more difficult for me, at least, to feel any sense of empathy/sympathy or encouragement for the company.

me personally?
I don't care at this point, been too long. If they go bankrupt maybe that would lend itself well to the situation if someone better suited or more motivated would pick it up and run with it.
