Where better than here? (Yes, I could've posted this to RPG.net or The Forge, but the posting paradigm on those boards seems to be more along the lines of 'win at all costs' and nothing like a fair evaluation of the merits of the case. With a few reactionary exceptions, when it comes to proposals such as mine the conversation tends to be more civil and more constructive here.)
Etan Moonstar said:I already told you what I think of when I hear the word game: an entertaining activity or pastime. It's something I sit down and play, by myself or with a bunch of friends, to have a good time. What do -you- think of when you hear the word game, and what do you consider to be the difference between a game and a hobby? I am not trying to psychoanalyze you so much as I'm trying to encourage you to be more clear in the expressing of ideas, especially if a pair of words central to your idea apparently mean something else to you than they do to most of the rest of us.
Crothian said:So, aren't you jumping the gun a little then? Why announce that there needs to be change if you don't even have a vaguew idea of what yet? I understand wanting to start a discussion, but as of now I haven't even seen good cause for said change.

Al, come on back to rgfd. Burke has gone, and we need the sport.mythusmage said:Who better to point this out?

Al needs someone to blame for not being able to find a game, you see.Crothian said:And those concerns are? So far it seems that people aren't "laying the smackdown".
Well, it's interesting how he's taken 47 posts (at this writing) spread over two threads to not say anything, isn't it?Crothian said:well, he hasn't really said anything yet.
