Message: <blockquote data-quote="qstor" data-source="post: 410212" data-attributes="member: 1489">I highly disagree with you Mark. I've been playing RPGs and D&D since 1979 when I was 12. I joined the RPGA in Sept. 2000 for Living Greyawk. I was in a RPGA Club in Michigan but did not play RPGA games prior to the start of LG. I played and ran non-RPGA games at the club which was a big part of Living City in Michigan.I wanted to be part of LG which was new. Living City then and now tends to be more "munchkiny" than some players and parts of LG is/could becoming. I knew that Greyhawk canon was safe in Erik's hands. IIRC since he is still "consulting" with the Circle of Six. I hope that canon is still safe. I really enjoyed his other module "As I lay daying"  as well and I continue to hold his Green Ronin monster book and Greyhawk work both web based and non web based in very high regard.As a lawyer for abused and neglected children in Maryland and as a member of a region where players under 16 are involved in LG, I can safely say that River of Blood as orginally written was NOT good for LG or for WOTC. I believe that the backlash was more about the content of the module then anything else. Other quality modules have been produced in LG that stick to the "old" standards of conduct. I continue to believe that rape, nudity, graphic violence and drug addiction need not be part of D&D. However I stronglyt feel that authors that want to write about such subjects should be not censored, far from it. I just think that WOTC should continue to stick with the standard of conduct within the RPGA and its core products and let third party vendors stick to such topics. I believe that they do so, however at renewed risk of criticism from the Christian Right.Ok...I'll get off my high horse.Mike</blockquote>
