    Hello. Trying to get some answers on why Randomling's House is down again. No luck just yet though.

    ENWorld women

    We've had some difficulty with board email - you need to get the activation email to use your account and it hasn't arrived for some people. I'll activate your account, knitnerd, then you'll be able to log in. :) Edit - that'll be tomorrow, as my boards are acting up and I have to go. Sorry!

    ENWorld women

    This is very cool. :D I was sure we did - but I'm religiously keeping track of the women who've posted here rather than the women on ENWorld generally because this thread is the best way of tracking them I've got! (Incidentally, I can only think of two members that I'm sure are female and...

    "RPG"

    I just reinstated my Community Supporter account, and I for one would really like to see the RPG back at some point. I really enjoyed it when it was there but let it fall by the wayside when I couldn't afford to renew my account. :) (Just putting in a small peep.)

    Hive: Musings about Crothian

    Kinda gross, to be honest.... I just finished writing up a new rules draft for my boards. Fun stuff. :)

    Extoll your hate of Valentine's Day (was: Extoll the virtues of your love!!)

    I don't like V-Day much at all. I don't exactly need more reminders that I'm lonesome (and possibly unlovable) when all my friends are attached and happy, or more excuses to feel bad about it. I'll be hiding as much as possible on the 14th, I think.

    ENWorld women

    [grins] Hello, Marcia, and welcome to ENWorld! That puts us up to 49. :D (OK, out of 14k that isn't great, but better than none! EDIT - just checked. 26k. Wow.) I read too, but for some reason I've been reading lots less in recent years. Every now and then I get on a new books kick, and I just...

    ENWorld women

    Amy - what can I do to sell you? I'll tell you what we are, and hope you like it: we're a fun, friendly and silly (sometimes very silly!) messageboard community that was spawned from the ENWorld Hivemind just about two years ago. (We get most of our new members from ENWorld or through personal...

    What "escapism" really means?

    Yup: obsessing over a game (or any other activity) to the extent that it hurts the rest of your life is obviously baaaaaad. I don't play because my life sucks exactly, but a small part of the fun is getting away from the real world. The rest of the fun is taken up with telling a cool and...

    The Official Welcome Thread

    *waves hello to the new people* Hello new people! Welcome to ENWorld! (Small plug: any girls who've recently signed up for the boards, come say hi in the ENWorld women thread! The link's in my signature...)

    What "escapism" really means?

    Funny enough, that's almost exactly what I like to do best in RPGs. I tend to find stories without any real-world meaning to be pretty boring, and that applies as much in games as it does when I'm playing audience to a book or movie. Games with depth, moral quandaries of one kind or another -...

    PDA or Paper Planner?

    Personally, I live out of my paper diary, which lives in my handbag and cost me £5. Works just fine! I keep meaning to get a bigger planner, but it would still be paper. I like technology but a PDA seems like too much faff somehow.

    What "escapism" really means?

    I'm going to go against the grain here and say there's nothing wrong with playing RPGs for a little healthy escapism. Everybody's life has parts that suck, and it's perfectly fine as far as I'm concerned to enjoy playing somebody else leading a different life for the very reason that they are...

    The "Flurry of Posts" feat certainly helps, I'd imagine! (It's a Hive PrC prereq, as I recall.)
