    D&D 5E Reflections on 5E -- Hopeful but uncertain

    As a gamer for over 30 years, I have seen a lot of changes in my hobby. When I saw that WotC had rehired Monte Cook, I thought that a new edition might be announced in the relatively near future. I thought that it might come with the D&D Experience later this month, but it was a bit sooner. I...

    I found some spam here -- http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/273584-5000-per-week-job-free-why-not-look.html#post5123472. Personally, I prefer the Monty Python variety.

    Spammers

    I noticed that we have an active spammer tonight, called nikecon. I reported the post that I found, but it looks like the spam troll is busy. (Hmm, how many XPs is a spam troll worth? Is it edible? ;) )

    D&D 4E Reported post: Let me sum up 4e anger for you.(3710460)

    Original post: in Thread Let me sum up 4e anger for you. Reason: It looks like we have an attempt at trolling here. The politics rule has been broken, as have civility. As annoyed as people might be at WotC over 4th Edition, bringing in Nazi Germany is not a good idea. Assigned...

    Error in Link to Reviews Page

    I thought I would check the review of The Power Gamer's 3.5 Wizard Strategy Guide (Goodman Games) from the front page of the site. Although the title of the review is for the product, the review itself is for The Power Gamer's 3.5 Warrior Strategy Guide (Goodman Games).
