I agree with nearly all of that, Good and Evil is I think intrinsic to human experience, our feel for what is right. Your example of smoking companies is also good, and thinking about it I think Good and Evil is talking about intent - murder is evil, because murder is intentionally killing...

And as a further bit, hopefully okay to post this quote in full from the late great Terry Pratchett, but I think applies to the ideas of overarching Good / Evil: “All right," said Susan. "I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need... fantasies to make life bearable." REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME...

The clarification on intolerant stuff is good here - as otherwise the Kingpriest arguably was the only one of the good people you were listing that was being intolerant of evil, but the actions he was taking went too far / became evil himself. I don't think that Good and Evil can be objectively...

Depends on how you define hardcore fans. I think prioritising existing customers is the correct choice if have to prioritise, but I don't think that means have to prioritise hardcore fans, which may only be 10% of your profit, even if on a per customer basis they are more profitable than others.

But the rest of his post outlines why the fluff doesn't really give an actual definition of what good is. Doing the right thing as expected by society - even in todays' world, there are many countries with very different laws around certain things, so a Lawful Good paladin in one country will...

Agreed, few things I would want, but accept that the market for this is so low it isn't worth WOTC doing: 1: if having time jump like FR has had, update the information on regions to reflect what the up to date world looks like - is Citadel Adbar still in same state as last time or not? Some...

Is one of my favourites, and I regret getting rid of it when we purged all our 3rd edition D&D books a while ago, but I also quite liked the more in depth books diving into certain areas, have very fond memories of the Serpent Kingdoms, plus the likes of Silver Marches, Magic of Faerun, Lords of...

The below link suggests 750 miles of travel: https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/499-encounter-of-the-week-the-road-to-baldurs-gate#:~:text=The%20trip%20from%20Waterdeep%20to,rest%20per%20tenday%20of%20travel.

Certainly some interesting discussions here, if somewhat circular at times. What I find interesting is how it ties into some of the themes of dragonlance, e.g. some of the views on why the Towers are essentially evil for allowing evil to be part of the Towers, seem to run close to the...

Well, suspected a thread like that would bring out certain opinions, but still disappointed to see them, ah well, ignore function does come in handy sometimes.

1) What is your favorite DND class? Sorcerer 2) What is your favorite race? Elf 3) What is your favorite setting (if own setting such as a homebrewed one, just write homebrew)? Forgotten Realms 4) What is your favorite alignment? Chaotic Good 5) How many hours per session do you typically...

great, thanks!

Which movie is that from? Looks like could be my kind of horror movie.

Going to repost a bit of what I posted in a thread earlier this year - but the word of the Lawful Good God is that the Kingpriest was good: The ending of the first trilogy had Fizban saying: 'There was a time when good held sway .. right before the Cataclysm'. 'Yes, the Kingpriest of Istar was...

"Steampunkette Services: Discussion and Power Rankings" Didn't help seeing this thread title shortly after reading through the latest stuff in the NuTSR thread, with all the naming suggestions for Steampunkette :)

Edit: Just saw mod post.

Well, I can see your point, even if I don't fully agree - there are definitely differences in how people communicate / what they aim for, and if not careful there can be a slippery slope, but I don't think what Chaosmancer has been advocating for falls into advocating for removal / ban /sanction...

From further down on the page: 'Aghar communities are quite small. Most clans live in abandoned villages or in the wilderness in old mines or caves. Others live in slums, refuse dumps, or the sewer systems of large cities. When several clans live together, the strongest and cleverest becomes...

Couldn't you argue that the Angry Mother movement as such is a discordant voice? Weren't they able to say what they wanted to demonstrate it is a democracy? Otherwise you seem to want to censor their voice instead.

There seems a big jump between the third and fourth steps, and I don't see anything up to and including step 3 as censorship - isn't it people exercising their free speech etc? Otherwise it seems to be giving a lot of power to the first speaker / artist - they are allowed to produce whatever...
