    Luke Crane Resigns From Kickstarter

    Oh no man, NO WORRIES! I got that from what you wrote. It's hard to read tone sometimes but yours was pretty clear.

    I hear you and you're right about this part. Most times theres too many other tasks directly related to the work to be done. However I'm going to say that managing an IT project is going to be different than managing a publishing project. And yes the end goal is delivering the project to the...

    In the case of ENWORLD, Morrus and company don't ban these people and that's their prerogative. But that doesn't come without consequence either. I've been a member here for almost 20 years. But I havent posted regularly here over the past 9 or 10 years because I know that this is not a "safe"...

    Even if you DON'T find anything on an initial/casual search and something comes out LATER (which is not the case here) being ready for damage control is also important. Is it fair to the person who has the accusations leveled against them? Maybe not. But it's not my responsibility to assess...

    Luke Crane Resigns From Kickstarter

    It's not difficult to define at all. If the project creator/project manager vetts this person and discovers that they are an accused sexual predator or someone with a history of pretty open racism or a history of sexual harassment at public events like say gaming conventions and THEY make the...

    The Invincible (amazon prime series)

    Yeah Im pretty familiar with the source material owning a fair amount of the single issues as well as all of the hardcover trades. It is a VIOLENT and GORY series. And honestly I knowing what comes later on in the series I don't know how short of several AVENGERS: ENDGAME level (in terms of...

    Luke Crane Resigns From Kickstarter

    I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree. As the project creator / manager it's kind of my responsibility to make sure that the project team in question is okay working with other team members who's very public actions my tarnish their reputations by association. While your concern is...

    Luke Crane Resigns From Kickstarter

    Luke...Luke Crane? Is that you?!? I used the word abuser not because he committed a crime or should be charged with one. I used the word because this was someone who marketed himself as safe and promoted safety and inclusiveness at TTRPG tables and within the community at large. What he did on...

    Koebel is free to produce something in the RPG sphere if he wants to. No one is stopping him from doing so. However being linked with him on a project is toxic. Creators/writers SHOULD KNOW if they are working on a project with someone who is perceived as toxic. If you're going to give him...

    Falcon and winter solider

    Yeah the g-forces knocked him out during the fall. There was also the matter of VIsion's shot KO'ing the power in Rhodey's suit so any mechanism to trigger a parachute would have had to have been activated manually. And when there's no power going to the suit is it possible to even move to...

    Falcon and winter solider

    And see, this is part of my point and view points like YOURS are ones I'm willing to engage because as you said IT IS hard to discern sometimes. But for those of us who have been subjected to it frequently and consistently its not something that we can afford to dismiss out of hand.

    Falcon and winter solider

    America has a history of racial discrimination when it comes to housing and mortgages and business loans. A LONG history of it. For some of you its easy enough to say well Sam was at fault. There have been tests done by civil rights orgs who have sent a black couple in to apply for a loan /...

    Falcon and winter solider

    There are plenty of racist sports and movie fans who like specific black athletes and actors/performers but who hands down DON'T like black people. I've experienced this repeatedly in my almost 50 years on this planet. Your statement is just wrong. Flat out WRONG.

    Falcon and winter solider

    I thought the racism shown in Lovecraft Country was pretty accurate maybe even not quite as bad as it actually was. It was the early 1950's after all. And the racism to be shown in TFATWS can afford to be subtle because it's more in line with the times. I want to really enjoy this show and I...

    Falcon and winter solider

    Liked the first episode ALOT. This looks like it's going to be a lot of character building interspersed with feature film quality action. I love the civilian lives of Sam and Bucky and how Bucky is DEFINITELY still haunted by the things he's done as The Winter Soldier. It's going to be slow...

    Marvel vs DC

    Yup during Matt Fraction's IRON MAN run one of the subplots IIRC was Stark attempting to develop a renewable energy source that could be mass produced. I think to an extent that Idea made it over to the very beginning of the 1st Avengers movie, as far as creating a renewable energy source. When...

    Marvel vs DC

    During Jonathan Hickman's epic Fantastic Four run that DID become a major focus for Reed. Unfortunately he got side tracked because the Council of Reed's (a bunch of Reed Richards from alternate timelines) showed why one man (or in this case men) trying to solve all the world's problems...

    D&D General On PC Death

    You're right. I think I stopped listening early I guess during the first campaign. Right around the 80's. This was a few years ago so I might be misremembering but they seemed more focus on keeping the characters in play. I think Scanlon died in one of the last ones that i listened to but was...
