    So... Is Enworld doing okay?

    It has already been mentioned by admins that they will manually retrieve who was a supporter and reïnstate the status. They also mentioned that, since it has to be done manually, it will take some time to get everyone up to speed. Through the payments and the seperate shop-database, they can...

    Just wait till you're married, then you'll be shackled... ;) OTOH, being shackled is not such a bad state to be in.... I'm happily married for the last two years now...

    Hmm.... haven't taken the 'Dating' feat... only know how to kill things and take their stuff... this roleplaying business feels unnatural... I do not understand it... ;)

    Packing for the Under Dark what to take

    Assuming you'll be underground for a long time, with maybe not always being able to rest well, and also meeting many creatures with resistances to magic etc., bring tons of alchemical goodness: acids, greek fire etc. etc. and naturally healing potions, scrolls etc. Assuming it may take some...

    How do you promote your homebrews?

    Well.... just a thought... considering that many here on ENworld have homebrew worlds, maybe there could be a forum for it, where homebrews can be discussed? On a side note, sometimes the websites of homebrews look very nice, and are indexed left right and center. Though this is helpful when...

    What's the collective noun for roleplayers?

    Hmm... how about a swarm.... the way most PC's go through places like a swarm of locusts, leaving a swathe of devestation behind them....

    So What Threads do you miss?

    Maybe there is a way to ask all those who saved all manner of threads to upload them again somehow? (Maybe showing my complete ignorance of computers, networks etc. now...) On the other hand, some threads (like the thread that wouldn't die) will not be missed at all.... Maybe this crash was...

    So... Is Enworld doing okay?

    I certainly hope everything is OK now. Thanks for all those who worked overtime to get the site back on track... Oh, and, although I understand it is quite a hassle, maybe backups should be made more frequently??? Anyhoo, good to be back...

    Does a publisher/author's interaction here influence your purchases?

    Hmmm... I definately had to go the complex route... I think there are several issues at play here: - if I really want something, I _may_ be put off if I happen to notice the author act as a jerk, but prolly not - an author acting nicely, with good linkage in his/her sig will prompt me to...

    Awakened Animals

    Although I agree that if awakening is a relatively common phenomenon and has been around for a long time, that breeding true would cause problems in terms of evolution. However, if awakening is extremely rare, or better yet, something belonging to the recent times, then there should be no...

    Need help with an idea

    Well, first of all, not wearing physical armor does not mean this tribe's champion is nog hung with all manner of special fetishes and charms, some of which may include armor like effects, limited damage reduction, fast healing etc. To avoid such relatively powerful items from falling into PC...

    Do your PCs ever completely outclass the enemy?

    Yes, I usually have the world be the world, regardless of the levels of the PC's. For 'real adventures', most encounters are designed to be challenging, as this fits with the fuzzy logic that the PC's look into dungeons, ruins and other challenges they feel they are up to, but when travelling to...

    Weapon plus

    Hmmm... as to the question '+5 or +2, these 3 extra steps barely matter to a higher level fighter', is incorrect AFAIK. No matter how you look at it, from the basis of the d20 attack roll, any +1 is a 5% increase, as far as BAB raises go (or Thac0 increases for old skool), any +1 is essentially...

    What do you want from a campaign setting?

    A lot of good stuff has already been mentioned. One other thing that I feel is very important for a setting, is art. Evocative art, all art pieces done in a similar 'atmosphere', can really give life to a setting. One thing I hate is ugly art or art by very different types of artists, giving me...
