MurderHobos

[stevelabny]

Are we worried about offending murderers or hobos now?

Really?

 

[JamesonCourage]

As a former hobo, I don't find it offensive (homeless 5 different occasions growing up, and for 3 years as an adult). Overused and misrepresentative of gameplay? Yes. Offensive? No. As always, play what you like

As a gamer, I do not find this offensive.

As a homeless person, I do not find this offensive.

As a murderer, I do not OH THE POLICE THEY'RE COMING WHO ING RATTED ME OUT YOU PIECE OF

 

[Mishihari Lord]

I've heard it used on rpg.net to disparage D&D's standard playstyle, so yes I find it a bit offensive.

 

[Jacob Marley]

I've heard it. I am not offended by it despite many posters using it as a pejorative.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Not only am I not offended, I use the term, and have even passed it along to my 19 year old cousin who is relatively new to RPGs.

This made me smile.

I hadn't heard the term yet, but is perfectly accurate to describe a party I played in named "Doomsday". Their real claim to fame was not the monsters they defeated, or the people they rescued.

Doomsday: kicked out of every major town in the realms. Including Myth Drannor.

If its a Hobo with a Shotgun then I would suggest that you do worry.

I was typing out "Please believe me when I tell you that I am not saying this in any disparaging way." when I realized that this phrasing may seem to be mocking you. So instead I will say, please take this as a commentary on my observation, and not a judgement upon you.

I find this both a bit surprising, and ironically humorous.
