    Important: Please Read! Changes Are Coming!

    Your seizing on the wrong line of it. Is that a quarter million UNIQUE visitors to the website in a one month span? Yes I know that the 4k mark is at one instance a number of unique visitors. When you start on the quarter a million mark, does that include folks like me who on average use at...

    Important: Please Read! Changes Are Coming!

    My first question would be is that a quarter million unique vistors and not bots? Cause if it is than the state of our hobby is doing quite well if a fan site can pull in a quarter million unique vistors. Especially considering looking at the stat block saying the most users online at one time...

    It feels to me like Hasbro has lit a fire under Wizards of the Coast, and given them

    No I don't even claim it as a gray area. It's a tool I use. While not legal in every location in the world. It's available. Much like a knife over 3" is illegal in many locations without a CCW permit. I can bet many of us have one in a bag or on our person somewhere without even realizing...

    Wasting my day at work coming up with solutions for ya. I thought there was a Vbul code to alter the Control Panel to make certain options fixed via a Usergroup. Could have sworn it was on one of the other sites I'm on. I'll look into the other sites I'm on and let ya know if I see it. Far...

    Sig Sizes - Morrus it is doable with Vbull, I know several sites set up that way. Yes the comparrisson to extortion will be there. After all you deal with the wave of 'NerdRage' with us. :D You won't please everyone, don't try, you'll fail miserably if you do. Set our plan and stick with it...

    It feels to me like Hasbro has lit a fire under Wizards of the Coast, and given them

    1. Nope but I do buy Pathfinder stuff. I do buy other 3E D20 stuff as well. Some of it current on the market now. But this was also true during the complete time I was playing 3/3.5E when it was the current edition. 2. One time it was Dawnforge, the other time it was Valus. When I find a...

    If you didn't draw me in with $3/mo, how do you think you can draw me in with $6/mo??? ;) Honestly the fault of yours for not balancing the books to say, "ok this $36 is equal to $3 a month over the year" shouldn't stop you from offering the deal. Now if you want to take the responsibility of...

    It feels to me like Hasbro has lit a fire under Wizards of the Coast, and given them

    Exactly that. As well as a used book market, which is more useful to me now more than ever since I'm not a current 4E player. The only time I actually go to a 'LGS' is when my son has been fairly good and I'm letting him pick something out there. I might pick up mini's in addition to what I...

    Where do you buy books?

    RPG stuff - Online, primarily Amazon. I believe in saving money, so if I got the choice of waiting a week and having it delivered to my door for 20-50% less than I can get it (if it's in stock) at a brick and mortar store I will do that. This included Novels as well. There isn't any RPG out...

    I'm getting Edition War fatigue

    You sir have won the thread. :D ================================ Really does it matter if you hate it or not. If you hate it, don't play it, don't berate others for playing it. Most of the hate to WotC stems from all their actions leading up to it. aka the 'Nerdrage' that built up was...

    How do you spice up your orcs?

    Just use Scro from Spelljammer. In a nutshell they are an evolved Orc. They even provide a 3.5 update for them. Scro

    Preparing when you have no idea what the PCs will do

    Really depends on the game. If your a fill in DM, flying by seat of pants is most likely. If your the main DM, your world is in constant motion with or without the PC's. Most of the time this is solved via email between sessions in games I DM. Most one on one character stuff is handled there...

    You're the Head of WOTC. Now What?

    Think Crothian has the best 2 ideas. :D If profitable things I would do: 1. Push Hasbro for the Toy/Boardgame Line. Think about it the Galatic Hero's Line is hugely popular with younger kids. Translate that over to D&D figures. Action figures for the next age of kids as well, GI Joe/Star...

    Lone Wolf sends Cease & Desist letters to anyone using the term 'Army Builder'

    Thanks for coming over Rob. As a good bit of this board started gaming in the 70's, yeah Army Building was in full effect before the Internet. Also the armies of the world were using the term Army Builder in various reports before our Grandfathers were born. It is also especially prevalent...

    Prisoner not allowed to play D&D

    Why not offer an alternative? Ask the prision official(s) to sit in on games? If it is promoting bad behavior, nix it. If it is socializing them, and promoting otherwise good behaviors, reward it. Besides if they are addicted to the game like Moar Zombies than they will figure out a way to...

    Best modules to teach player skill

    B2 Keep on the Borderlands would be my choice for it as well. Can be as simple or complex as you like.

    Whatever Happened to Classic TSR Downloads?

    O there is an easy way, but it ain't legal. So they don't talk about that stuff here. This is a rather awesome idea for 'Epic Win' on all sides. Just trump it up a bit more with a TRIPLE-dog-dare ya! Thank you for passing that on Piratecat. If nothing else it puts a but in their ear that...

    Breach of Contract (Atari) re: D&D licensing

    Another possiblity is the GSL clashes with the current contract. Thereby making the 4E game impossible to create due to conflicts in it. And Hasbro/WotC doesn't want them creating 3E stuff either on the license. Either way its a loss for us the consumer. Honestly I would love all the old...

    So How Do You Recognize those High Level NPCs anyway?

    I've seen many Adventuring parties run away from the little orphan girl with a teddy bear before. Gamed with a group of players that was deathly afraid of any orphan girl. Only did it once to them, but even many years later they would avoid any lone girl. Apparently they were disturbed by my...

    Leesburg, Virginia, seeking 1 more player

    If you want to set something up, by all means. Your on my way home everyday, and I have to slow down for the County that likes to sit up there by the Covered Wagon anyways.
