Before then you didn't really make characters, you just imagined them in the theater of your mind and the DM would make rulings as to what happened. It was a glorious time, before chargen turned everything into a videogame.

Quarex posted:Is it a fatally bad idea to bring up RPGPundit and Zak S.? It is really interesting reading Mandy Morbid's take on the infinite and unending dramabomb, in the sense that it is interesting reading a third-person account of a conflict that happened 50 years ago that makes absolutely no sense to anyone but the people involved. It's a call to arms to harass someone Zak doesn't like wrapped up in progressive politics as a tactical ploy, like usual. There, I just saved you a conversation.

Actually here is a funny story about that: In the middle of Mandy's whole "Totally not trying to harass anyone! PS: Mikan is actually a lying troll mastermind out to get Zak, here's all the screen/real names they go under, do with that information what you will, Mandy out!" thing, she lists "Smartmonkey" as one of Mikan's aliases. If you're wondering who Smartmonkey is because you've never heard that name before: I got tipped by an RPGnet poster that Smartmonkey is actually some other poster who happened to make a post about transgendered characters in the d20 subforum while sporting a Kanji Tatsumi avatar. People who know what Persona is: totally part of the grand Mikan conspiracy.  (If anyone's thinking of letting them know someone painted a target on their back for expressing pro-LGBT opinions, don't bother; RPGnet staff are dealing with it.)

I'm backing out of this part of the conversation, but I will say I heard Greg Stolze's favourite kind of liquorice is the little black twisty ones that everybody hates.

Mike Olson likes to get the blue shell in Mario Kart and save it for the final lap. Kenneth Hite once filled a dungeon with rust monsters. Robin Laws reposted snape kills dumbledore jpegs. Scott Wegener uses the "doge" meme unironically. Brian Clevinger double-dipped at a party once. Sorry, the hobby sucks.

If the internet has taught me anything it's that an SA Trad Games offshoot would ostensibly be about games but actually be about ten guys griping about SA for half a decade.

Jimbozig posted:Holy poo poo. The guy in the comments who quoted his own line-by-line rebuttal to Zak's rpgnet ban message. My eyes are glazing over with all the excuses. quote:In the sixth paragraph of your article, you posted a link about RPG.net's perm-ban of Zak. At the time the ban was issued, I refuted the claims made in the ban in an appeal letter that I sent to the admins. I got a one-word response, "No". This is going on my Favourite Responses To Bans list along with "the guy who drew fanart of how much he hates me", "the guy who flipped out in PMs over a threadban until he was perma'd and boasted that he'd been "in control of the conversation"" and "the guy who tried to guess Kai Tave's password"

My favourite thing about those comments right now is that most of the "defenses" are basically predicated on "Where's the evidence? Real evidence is handed out by the culprit to total strangers when they're circled on G+, so if you haven't circled Zak you must be making this up!" At least Jeff Rients is just being dumb and not straight-up ridiculous. Ettin fucked around with this message at 06:06 on Jul 31, 2014 |

Saguaro PI posted:This entire thread of argument throughout the whole thing has been amazing. How the gently caress do they expect it to go? "Seriously guys, my good pal here is dumb like you wouldn't believe. If he did something bad, he would just go around telling everybody like a cartoon parrot. Just flying around, squawking in the face of anyone who walks by. The Dongion? Zak couldn't be involved! Why set up an anonymous blog that only posts your talking points and updates within minutes when someone corrects you when you could just willingly admit it to people who asked? Sure, regular people might just lie or have more than one circle, but you see, Zak is a huge loving dope."

Mormon Star Wars posted:I had to check to make sure this wasn't an actual Jeff Rients post after "well maybe he had his head in the sand and didn't know his witch hunt list resulted in harassment!" Jokes aside, the main reason Jeff's being a doofus is that he's shifted the goalposts into demands that everyone abused by a dude who loudly denies that he's done anything wrong and adds anyone who says otherwise to a hit list of ~known frauds~ should approach him in public and ask for an apology before they speak up. Every defense so far basically boils down to "you're not allowed to say anything about harassment until you consult your harasser".

Of course if you do approach Zak, remember to use short words and pictures and maybe some hand puppets, because according to these comments his ability to not leave everything he does out in the open for random strangers to find is outclassed by the target audience of Sesame Street.

When Zak first popped up on SA I only appeared to get his back when goons started getting a little too goony at him, then later I found out he'd been calling me "scum" in some private cry thread. Never again
