I still have the worn down red d20 that came with my Moldvay Basic set. So that's what, 35 years or so? Dice were a lot smaller back then. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk

I honestly have no idea if they did or didn't, but I don't think it matters either way. Frankly, this is exactly what the courts are there for. Let it go to a judge and/or jury. If it's frivolous, that will come out. If they have been mistreated, they don't have a duty to go through a long...

Right, but that's not a wage. That's not even company scrip. :) It's compensation, certainly, but there's a reason grocery store employees aren't paid in groceries.

Yeah, at first I was thinking this was utterly ridiculous, but I can at least see the argument. WotC is using volunteers to help them market their products at venues where they hope to make a profit; that's a lot murkier than volunteering for, say, a soup kitchen.

What other venue would be appropriate for such a complaint?

Oh, well, if Reddit has a subforum dedicated to something, certainly it ...No, I can't even finish. I can't satirize that argument any more than that argument has already satirized itself. I mean, Reddit also has subforums for virulent racism (really, I can't even post the subreddits' names on...

Awww, I was hoping for Betrayal at the Keep on the Borderlands. Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk

There's still a heavy element of... Victim blaming, I suppose, to this whole ridiculous "wilting flower" argument. And it's not the first time it's come up in these threads. Yes, many/most/whatever women are totally capable of handling themselves against a harasser. That doesn't excuse being a...

Why's it her job to do this instead of the dude just, you know, not staring at her boobs to begin with? Is that crazy? It doesn't seem crazy? What seems crazy is an argument along the lines of, "It's totally more respectful to stare at women and make them uncomfortable because otherwise you're...

I agree that this was usually (heck, almost always!) the way older editions of D&D were played back during the 70's and 80's. I mean, I had a DM who thought he was extremely clever by having a disembodied voice taunt us and waited for us to say, "I look up" to notice the flying dude talking to...

This is not, btw, so much a feature of oldschool gaming as it is a questionable DMing style. Which was, to be fair, really *really* common back then. But just like game design has progressed and improved, so too has the art of running games. Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk

I mostly agree except for #5. And in my case, if I want oldschool, I'll run *oldschool* - BECMI/AD&D - or else run Dungeon Crawl Classics. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk

Yeah, it would be needlessly complicated. Especially when it comes to bonuses or penalties. I would mostly think, "Whoever designed this didn't really think this through."

Yeah, from what I remember the app was barely-serviceable even for the much simpler D&D 5e, with craziness like six-page character sheets. I mean, maybe they can pull it off, but PF is a vastly larger and more cluttered beast than 5e.

This was also the case with WotC, though.

Only thing you missed was the microphone drop gif. Well said.

Dude, if you want to pretend that your hate group has noble goals alongside shielding and enabling harassers, or that those super important goals justify it, be my guest, but as I said - I'm not going to play along. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk

Yeah, should have stuck with my first inclination not to play the "NOT ALL GAMERGATERS" game. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk

Oh then no, that's exactly what I thought you said. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk
