    D&D General My experience with popular D&D VTT tools

    My gaming group has been using Roll20 for 5 years and counting, ever since the pandemic lockdowns began. We dabbled a bit with FantasyGrounds and Foundary during the lockdowns also, but we bounced off of them. FantasyGrounds was too frustrating to get running on all of our different computer...

    D&D General D&D is now Steampunk (poll)

    I agree it's no longer "medieval fantasy" but that doesn't mean I think it's "steampunk." It's it's own thing. I'm not saying that's a good thing, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I'm just saying.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Bad day on the construction site. Okay fam, I'm gonna be real with you right now. I have a hard time respecting any grown man who can't say "I was wrong" or "I don't know." Take responsibility for your actions, you child.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    How it usually goes around here: "This is absolutely true and everyone knows and accepts it as fact." (Ten minutes later) "I'n sorry you misunderstood, I was just stating my opinion. You should just always assume everything people say on the Internet is an opinion, so this is entirely your...

    D&D 5E (2014) Lord of the Rings 5E Is Coming Next Month

    Why not? (Serious question, not trolling. I don't run or even own the 2025 rules. I'm just curious why you have such a strong opinion on the topic.)

    Things the Report button is NOT for

    I don't get a lot of red text but when I do, my reaction is usually something like "okay yeah, that was out of line, I should drop it" and not something like "how dare they, this is so unfair, fight me"
