But it seems some people preferably want to send other people to gulags for simply pointing out that a guy named Gygax had "Women Bad and will destroy The Roleplaying Game by participating" in mind writing "The Roleplaying Game".

I don't know if it is an error posting this here (this is not the right place for a discussion about it and I don't want to start one) but: I "liked" your Post (99% of it) and it makes me extremely antsy if I don't comment your last statement so please forgive me that I must give my soul peace...

@ Mark Craddock: No, NuTSR is/was Ernie Gygax.

Sure - who want's people who will complain the whole time because they are salty that even in death some "gods" claim them :P I'm not even sure that there will be no Forgotten Realms atheists who demand "The Wall" they heard about all their life. PS: Stating the - hopefully- obvious: No, I...

Sorry, English isn't my first language and although I usually have no problems with it I don't have a clue what you want to say - and I think it's bad form to write "read section A to you see why you're wrong" instead of writing "because X and Y you are wrong". Probably I am wrong but I don't...

Ok, another try: If I have an amount Y with the elements A,B,C (the stats) and someone removes A(lignement) then I lose something. The declaration is "A is a variable with the default x", (and yes, all the other elements are variables too, so you can define"my orcs get 1d12 extra HP") and you...

And the fact that in the Edda Laufey is the mother of Loki, but in the MCU Laufey is the father maybe shows why Loki is genderfluid PS: I disliked Cate Blanchett as Hela - ok, I hated the whole "Hela is the daughter of Odin instead of Loki" idea - but as a female Loki IMHO she would have been ok ;-)

It may be nitpicking but "The history of Eberron doesn't advance sufficiently that fans will miss out if they don't buy this book" is essentialy wrong. The year is still 998YK, (four years after the Day of Mourning and two years after the Treaty of Thronehold brought the Last War to an end), the...

IMHO it´s an error to funny to correct: They may look alike but "children" are "Kinder", not "Kender" ;-)

See, that´s the problem: The "innocent until proven" gets reversed, the babysitter has to prove (to you) that the accusations against her/him are wrong.

Not to start a new discussion but these 4.1% are people wrongful incarcerated and sentenced to death; the author of the study concludes that "(I)t follows that the rate of innocence must be higher for convicted capital defendants who are not sentenced to death than for those who are".

IMHO the problem is that sexuall harrasement can be really hard to prove - or disprove. And so I would have prefered it if the author had waited til there were more proof (and/or consequences) before he posted the name of the accused. For me it it would have been way more newsworthy that a...

Or they are simply lurkers of (/on?) this site who think: "Now is the point to offer my opinion!" I´m someone who is visiting this site for a long long time and posted the first time last month... PS: To speak in a general way I know the phenomenon "sock puppets" exist, but I find it rather...

1.) I think you are wrong - there is always a point in conversation. 2.) But if you don´t want to converse and don´t see the point then please stop. We read your opinion, you done your deed. Maybe it´s better if you keep reading and stop posting?:erm:

No it doesn´t. For example: Humans are very adept at expressing, recognizing and manipulating emotions in various situations, depending on the need. Such proficiency is evident in a few specific occasions soon after birth. Infants just a few seconds old start expressing one of the most...

That´s one of the points we discuss: Is this change good, bad or irrelevant? And as I stated some pages ago (accoriding to a thesaurus): "ancestry" is something else than "race" - you can´t switch this two words. And here you are wrong: The 5th Edition was the first who explicitly stated...

Ok, maybe my memory played a trick on me, I remembered them as great sources for my players to play nonhumans (and humans) as distintive races - but that was long ago. Now I prepare special writeups for playing races. I require for most of my players (not the newbies etc., but the seasoned)...

And one of the things I love - if the GM and/or the other players are ok with it - is playing my nonhuman PC´s and NPC´s with a hearty piece of alieness. So to each its own. :D And yes, more than one time the players were shocked when my characters done something unreasonable - from a...

Hm... I´m not really sure why but according to the thesaurus Merriam-Webster (https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/race) "ancestry" isn´t a synonym (= the same) for "race" - it´s even a Near Antonym = the opposite. "Near antonyms are words that do not qualify as antonyms under the strict...
