Why does John McCain hate D&D players?

[Grimhelm]

I also wonder... I think that ever since there has been political debate there has been political mudslinging. I applaud the conservatives for their ability to do just this, and to attach labels to people. When we attach labels and names to people, in a way, we control them. We dictate others' perceptions and thus, for all intents and purposes, their reality.

The liberals are not so good at this, but they had better get better if they wish to survive.

Well, Chach, you are always welcome at my house on game days. This Saturday, for instance!

True! Also, it seems that Thormagni is interested in some RPGs this weekend -- if others would prefer that, I'm game.

Rpgs?

If enough people came, Vince might be able to run the last part of the Khardul adventure! That would kick a$$

Yah. On Sunday, I am hoping to run either:

1) Mutants & Masterminds - superheroes with the players making their own this time, instead of me making them.
2) True20 - Continuing our modern crime/espionage game from a few weeks ago.
3) D&D - The Return to Elemental Evil characters or the old Gran March characters, whichever would be more fun.

Of course, this is all just a typical liberal plot and attempt to smear an honored POW and war hero, by suggesting that anyone else in the universe could be a superhero, ex-soldier or warrior.

So Republicans try to win influence with Intimidate and Bluff checks, Democrats with Bluff and Diplomacy checks and the voters are left to Gather Information to find out what the truth is.

Perfectly said! Bravo!

Well, we are gaming here at my house on Saturday. You are welcome to come, of course! Sounds like we have lots of new games to play...

Hey guys! I'm up for whatever on Saturday. I've got some new boardgames burning a hole in my pocket. RPGing would be sweet too.

Well, we certainly wouldn't want to politicize presidential campaigns that call out D&D players... Maybe we can file a TOS complaint against the McCain campaign.

Where can you see this?

Just for good measure, I reported me too.

All moderators (me, Vince, and OG) get an email when a post is reported. I assume admins (Morrus) get it as well. There's a place for moderators and admins to discuss the thread in question, but I can't get to it without a community supporter account (mine was never activated). So, I posted here so that folks other than me, Vince, and OG would know I had taken action. I did get your email there, Bbo.
