    D&D 5E (2014) Does the inclusion of these two gamers undo WOTC desire to be inclusive?

    I agree with this some what. I think it is one thing if you disagree with their politics or causes but don't find them morally objectionable but if you do and you don't want your money going to that cause I can see not buying the products. As a liberal I know many companies I do business with...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does the inclusion of these two gamers undo WOTC desire to be inclusive?

    Here is what I have been thinking a about the whole separate the person from his art. Say a game designer online presence is rather sexist he doesn't want to play with women in his home games. He does not get the whole issue with stripper armor. But he is an excellent game designer and none of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does the inclusion of these two gamers undo WOTC desire to be inclusive?

    I am sorry. You are right we should keep our personal opinions to ourselves on the people in question and discuss the facts of what is going on.

    The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (trailer)

    That is one of my favorite parts. And it is the book. I have an audio book of the Hobbit that has a narrator but adds the music and singing in there is quite a lot of it more than in the movie.

    If you like the scent of mango you will love how it will make your house smell. I love the way it smells my son on the other hand hates it and we have an agreement I will only bake it when he is not home and I have to bake something that he think smells good. I have theory he may not hate it as...

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    I would think because of the allegations from his daughter Dylan that he sexually abused her.

    D&D 5E (2014) Does the inclusion of these two gamers undo WOTC desire to be inclusive?

    I have been reading various links on this and I have to say a lot is making me angry. Look I don't like Pundit very much I freely admit that I find him abrasive and I think he goes out of his way to stir the pot with the most obnoxious way he can. I read what he said about sexual harassment and...

    http://failforward.co.uk/post/93348768153/how-dungeons-and-dragons-is-endorsing-the-darkest-parts I was saw this on another page and read some of the comments and many felt that it would stop them from buying the game others felt that it was an over reaction and that it was not fair to say...

    I have a mango tree in my yard. I make mango bread or muffins, mango smoothies I even made mango ice cream. Mango salsa is great. I also cut some up and store them in the freezer.

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    This really depends for me. I can tolerate some things. If the person just says things I don't agree with I can over look it and would buy the book though I might try and find used copies. If the person not only says bad things but gives money to things I don't like like Card support of some of...

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    I agree with you on men being judged more harshly at times by society. I have seen it as a mother of a son. Right now my roommate and I are living with my son and his roommates. He has gotten flack for living with his mom. But the fact is my roommate and I ran into finical problems and my son...

    Need help w/ potential love between my PC and an NPC

    The fact that your DM has taken over a previous character before and is now not listening to you I have all kinds of warning bells going off. What your DM is doing is railroading. As a DM I sometimes limit the leadership feat because I think that the party is to big. I will sometimes limit...

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    I see. :) A question if I was a straight man leaving with a another straight man basically my situation but the sexes reversed would it be some how less acceptable? I am just curious. I do know that some people can't accept that some people have no desire to be married or to live with a...

    Need help w/ potential love between my PC and an NPC

    The idea of redeeming a person through love is a great story. And I don't think you need formal rules for it. Basically if I was DMing this I would handle it as Vicki watching you be good falling in love with you inspires her to become more worthy of your love. I don't know if you ever watched...

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    Yes my best friend and I found that we live well together and after my divorce we became roommates and she helped me raise my son. When I became disabled she helped me keep a roof over my head. I never had any desire after awhile to remarry and she has never wanted to marry now as we slide...

    D&D 5E (2014) What Campaign Setting Do You Plan On Using?

    Not planning to run a 5E game right now. But if I was I think I would make a homebrew if I was.

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    Janx I can understand the desire to wipe someone who is so evil from the face of the earth. But I also question if by doing so if you are preventing giving the tools for future generations to recognize evil. I am also not sure if wiping out something that can benefit humanity just because it...

    Can you separate an author from his or her work?

    The allegations coming out from Marion Zimmer Bradly's children of physical and sexual abuse at the hands of their mother has made me think about this. I am fan of her work though I didn't like her personally I had met her and she rubbed me the wrong way. But I was able to separate that from her...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you excited for the Backgrounds?

    The issue with people who feel the need to optimize their PC to the point that it is always the most powerful and has few limitations is that they can wreck havoc at tables where the DM and the rest are not playing this way. A lot of times it seems subtle at low levels but as they level they...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are you excited for the Backgrounds?

    This is true as long as they don't go nuts in the splat books. That is where things seem to go wrong.
