 This is the July 2014 chat thread! Bring ye your shitposting and derails here. The old thread was here. In deference to that other thread, post about a time a game managed to make you break into a cold buttsweat in sheer abject dread.

ProfessorCirno posted:I will not be buying this or any other WotC products for the foreseen future. Thanks for the heads up. Same, and I've posted about it elsewhere. It's a drop in the bucket but if I can convince some people to boycott the product that's a victory in my mind.

Swagger Dagger posted:Literally nobody that just plays RPGs every now and then know who Zak S or RPG Pundit are. This has been said but you can't fall back on the "they're just two small voices in the crowd and totally ignorable" defense when they're being given a shoutout on page one of the one single biggest tabletop RPG on the market that has historically more or less been the voice that defines the entire hobby. I might take advice on emailing WotC, because that really isn't acceptable no matter how you cut it.

Bucnasti posted:Either way, drawing attention to this just validates these people and will have the same kind of unintended consequences as the Streisand Effect. Ignoring abuse does not make it go away. It does not make it get better. It does not make it easier for the people who are the targets of it. Silence does literally the opposite of all of these things. You are straight up flat out wrong about this one. People need to speak about it and keep speaking about it and never stop speaking about it until these people are actually driven to the utmost fringes of the hobby, not embraced and validated by one of the biggest players. People need to keep speaking until the voices in every major medium and product are all saying "get out and don't come back, you're not welcome here." Zak S is is an abuser and he will keep being an abuser until the response to his abuse stops being silence.

On a happier note I read a bunch of little tidbits about it and am for real super IRL excited about the GMC Mage thing coming out soonish. I don't think I've actually been this excited about an RPG book coming out in a couple of years.

FewtureMD posted:So does that mean GMC Mageball League is gonna be holding tryouts soon? Hhhheh I still feel like garbage for bailing on the game actually. If my employment situation manages to improve by the time the new edition comes out, I'll see about GMC Mageball.
