The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

You don't want to be like Hitler, do you?

I was considering making a joke involving a millenial-style side-part hair cut, but that would be in poor taste.

It always does kind of make me wonder what folks' most pizza-topping-choosing cringe-worthy friend is that they keep hanging out with and how they justify it.

A third of ENWorld posts could be locked by moderators with the message of "that person is not really your friend. Stop hanging out with them."

There's that adage, "No gaming is better than bad gaming."
So does that apply to friends? That's not easy to answer, but i think it's a question that some people really do have to contend with in life, unfortunately.

I do think there need to be much better tools for finding other people to play with, to give people more freedom to either play in better games or game systems that they like better (or both).

I would invite all of you over to my house, but we don't have the room.

I regret that I can only like this post once.

What gaming needs is "Delvr," the high-quality, data-driven match-making app for dungeoneers, spacers, investigators, and other such deviants.
Monetize that, wotc!

That was actually the premise of Bubble, a very fun podcast that apparently is going to become a movie at some point.

I've been playing for forty years, with a wide variety of folks - probably at least two hundred people - and in all that time I may have encountered... five? six? people who were really that bad that I have stories about them that I tell here on ENWorld... And I have no problem leaving a game if I don't get along with the people in the group or booting someone from my games if they're a bad apple.

I have to wonder just who the hell these folks are playing with that their prior gaming experiences have left them so traumatized that they think every DM is out to screw them and that every player is looking to cheat as much as possible... Especially when they claim to have played with hundreds of people.
Hell, out of all the posters here on ENWorld, a place with hundreds of gamers from all over the place, there are probably only four or five of y'all that I absolutely wouldn't play with.

Now that would be something that might be worth including in any VTT that WotC puts out - the ability to be matched up with other gamers looking for a game based on things like location and time available, etc.

I'm about the same--though there are people I wouldn't want at the same table, because they wouldn't get along with each other.

Mostly I'd just be traumatized by the fact that practically no one actually looks like their avatar.
Snarf in particular.
