    Moms who banned DnD

    chick article I just read the Jack Chick article...what a laugh. It reminded me lots of anti-LDS tracts that I've read (they take something and really twist it). I mean he quotes stuff from the rulebooks and twists how it works. Oh well. I enjoyed how he had this list of people who commited...

    Moms who banned DnD

    Well I can understand to a certain extent the paranoia about DnD. I mean the 1st edition dmg had this huge red devil holding this half naked woman. The monster manual was full of demons and devils. If I am a parent I'm going to look at that and go "Un I don't want my kid playing that". I mean I...

    PCs Running away when they should

    Yeah me too. I do throw in all types of creatures or all types of CRs. I don't believe that for example Hill giants just hide out until the PCs are at a level were they can take them. These encounters are ones that they don't have to face. the ones that they do have to face are ones that they...

    Moms who banned DnD

    No kidding I mean look at the clothes and hair stytles they wore back then ;) You know I thought that it was weird that my parents let me play other rpgs as long as it wasn't DnD. Surprises me that there were other parents/teachers that were the same way.

    Moms who banned DnD

    ouch Oh man I almost cried when I read that :'( Seriously though I remember reading that there were ministries set up to stomp out playing DnD. I remember reading a track back when i was a teenager. Are these still around? Or is it mostly just the few lingering parents/uncles/teachers that...

    Moms who banned DnD

    i had a friend too like that. I had a friend like his too. His dad was a minster and he had to lie to him on what he was doing. I also remeber my other friend was given an anti- DnD tract from his friend who thought DnD was evil. I think what helped with my mom was that I still went to church...

    Moms who banned DnD

    Well I came into contact with DnD when I was 12 years old. There was this kid who brought it to school and wanted to play it. Once I played I was hooked and for Christmas I asked my parents for this game called DnD. So that Christmas I got the DnD "red box". Well things were going good until my...

    AD&D and the people who still play it

    2nd edition Well we have a guy in our group who was really big into 2nd edition. He bought the 3rd ed books, and kinda glanced them over but that's how far it went. His thing was that he knew the 2nd ed rules inside out and backwards and just didn't feel like taking the time to learn a new set...

    game conduct...am i being anal?

    If you're all adults and of age, and no body is excessive I would say fine. I say not at my table. I don't drink and I don't want my kids seeing people drinking in my house. That's why I also have the no drink rule.

    Plot immunity for PCs

    here's how i do it I have struggled with this topic for some time now. As a player I absolutely hate this. The game gets boring VERY fast if I know that I can't die. On the other hand as a DM I have fudged a die roll in the players favour. I usually do this in the low levels. Once we get to the...

    game conduct...am i being anal?

    oh yeah this has been a rule in my games for some time now. Yes I understand it can make for some funny experiences. But I have younger kids that I just don't want witnessing things like that. Also more so than not games really suck with drunk people.

    game conduct...am i being anal?

    "Quote: Your rules are not unreasonable. That said, has the conduct around your table recently worsened? Has something changed recently: a new set of players or new direction for the campaign? It seems to me as though your players are trying to send you the message that your campaign bores them...

    game conduct...am i being anal?

    paying attention "It's a good thing to ask them to pay attention but if people are ignoring your campaign, there might be some other issues at stake too." Yeah i know that this is something that all DM's need to be aware of. I understand that if I'm boring the hell group then it's not fair to...

    game conduct...am i being anal?

    after last nights game I'm putting in some game conduct rules at my table. I kinda hate to do this as i feel like I'm treating my group like a bunch of kids (we're 25-35), however i think this is gotta happen. #1. No reading books or drawing at the table ( unless you're looking something up...
