    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    This is fueled by a leftist agenda to destroy the power of men in our society, and replace them with powerless castrati who have no role in society as husbands and fathers. George Orwell predicted this in 1984, I invite you to read the book to understand where all this is going.

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    Rape is illegal and should be punished by a long prison sentence. Ogling a woman is rude behavior, but there is no way to eliminate it without creating a Stalinist police state.

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    I heard on the news that a professor is now in trouble for yelling "Lengerie Department" at an elevator, and a woman filed a complaint against him. Carts are taking men to the guillotine over trifles.

    It's part of a much bigger conspiracy to transform our world, and if you don't see it, you're probably part of it.

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    The agenda behind all this is to transform the world into a society without normal sex between men and women. George Orwell predicted this in 1984.

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    In a perfect world none of these problems between men and women would ever happen. In a perfect world there would be no sex, no difference between men and women, we would all wear grey suits, and babies would be created in medical laboratories and raised by state-run nurseries. And that's...

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    Well, if people are writing news articles about men based on accusations, and destroying their lives and careers, then there should at least be due process. If it's only about getting thrown out of a con, then the stakes are much lower.

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    I understand there's a problem. However, I noticed that you lumped in awkward oglers with rapists. If you can't see the difference between these behaviors, one which is legal, and one which isn't, then there's a problem.

    Well, I'm concerned with due process because, even with due process, the justice system puts a lot of innocent people in prison. If it's your word against a police officer, the judge or jury will believe the police officer. And sometimes, a lot more than you think, police officers will lie to...

    Certainly con organizers have a right to do as they please, I never said otherwise. On the other hand, gamers are free to avoid cons that set themselves up as the Inquisition of the Anti-Sex League.

    So really, any man can be banned from a con on the word of any woman, and there will be no need of proof.

    What is *worldbuilding* for?

    The purpose of worldbuilding is to have fun. What I mean is that YOU, the DM is having fun building a world. If you are not having fun building a world, then really there's no point to it, because DMing is a hobby, not a job. You should not expect your players to care as much as you do about...

    Creating a new gamer...

    I've been DM'ing the same group, my son and his friends, for six years now, and our group is now going stronger than ever. It used to be that I was the only one who wanted to DM. But as the group matured, everyone wanted to try it, so now we have numerous campaigns, and that has lifted a lot...

    Why Worldbuilding is Bad

    Most sci-fi has no world building at all. The story is about one thing that is different from our world, and everything in the story is about that. There is literally nothing else going on in this world other than this one thing. For example, I just saw a movie called Anon, which is about a...

    I have a very detailed world, but that's not why my game is popular...

    I read a DM whining because every member of the party was a paladin with shields, and they would march together in the dungeon, protecting each other with their shields and protecting each other with their charisma bonuses to saving throws, which he allowed to stack so that every member of the...

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    The penalties I see the #MeToo movement passing out are: (1) destruction of reputation of the person accused. (2) destruction of career and career opportunities of the person accused. Also, there appears to be a presumption of guilt so that the accusers don't really have to prove anything...

    Harassment Policies: New Allegations Show More Work To Be Done

    I haven't read the entire thread because it is now more than 900 posts long, so I guess I missed the part where it is explained what convention hosts are supposed to do about guests who don't meet the standards of a harassment policy. Will all accusations, whether or not proved, be acted on...
