    What *is* it about paladins that makes people nutty, anyway?

    Oh, so people who don't like paladins have no system of belief that encompasses love, compassion and respect for life? Yeah, you're probably right. My bad.

    How RPGs changed one's life for the better.

    I met my best friend through gaming in 4th grade--we didn't know what we were doing, but we had fun. We've been friends for 25 years. I've also met most of my other friends through gaming. RPGs helped me academically, as well, both in stats and in vocabulary. "Fecund" was actually on the...

    ...oh no you didn't...

    Man, nothing kills a thread like slavery- and pedophilia-based anecdotes.

    ...oh no you didn't...

    As a companion to StupidSmurf's "...so we tossed the jerk out..." thread, which contains example of gamer behavior ranging from annoying to soul-searingly vile, I'm curious about stories featuring players or GMs who may have acted in unusual or unexpected ways, but who you remember fondly. For...

    "....so we tossed the jerk out...."

    I laughed and laughed when I read this. Well played, sir! I never realized how truly fortunate I've been in my gaming career until I read this thread. I've had some weird moments, though, like the time I responded to an ad at my FLGS for a 2e game; the GM was a bouncer/AV tech at a local...

    Real Life Stats

    Nice! As far as the debate on "real world" stats, anyone who believes the immense number of human characteristics can effectively be boiled down into six numerical scales certainly can't have a very high Wisdom (paradox intended). There is no consensus among therapists, psychiatrists...

    Charity Work

    I started GMing as part of the community service requirement for parole, and I've never looked back.

    Drow Tactics

    I'm a GM of a level 17 3.5 party who recently took a whirlwind tour through the Underdark. It was obvious from the reactions of some of my veteran players that I under-played the drow in terms of tactics and abilities. During their visit, the party managed to anger huge numbers of drow.
