New person here

Post by saithorthepyro »

Hello. Found my way here trying to search for criticism of Paizo a little more harsh then on their message boards. I found this which was a little more than I thought existed. I'm mostly a PbP player versus real life due to lack of group.

Can't help you -- we only do a whole lot more harsh around here ;)

"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

There's no local game stores near you?

There's no local game stores in large swathes of the planet. Certainly if you're not including Games Workshop outlets - those places are no good if you want to play anything not produced by GW.

Even then, GW stores put a fair amount of hoops to using their stores. They want advertisement via people using GW-only parts and finished painted models; not people actually enjoying/learning/experimenting with their games via proxy armies or unfinished minis.

Welcome to the Den. People here like to tell each other to suck barrels of cock but don't take it personally. The philosophy here is that passive-aggressiveness ruins online discussions, while open aggression (in attacking ideas) is kind of humorous and blows off steam instead of building it up. The longer you hang around here the more you'll see distinct, animu-like personalities among different users with their own catch phrases.

I also prefer PbP to other kinds of play due to location and so on, you can put together a game or ask around for one in the proper section of this forum.

A long time in replying to this, but I figured it was worth it.

I am mostly polite by nature, until enough steam gets built up. And I mostly do PbP due to lack of nearby FLGS time constraints.

I am also within 5 degrees of known embezzler and crook Loren L Stoleman. Randall Bills is the brother of my mom's former roomate.

Essentially yes. Interesting fact, my mom, who is also Mormon, has no idea why Bills and Hardy got the idea to support Coleman out of religious reasons. Admittedly she barely goes to church and we are in Arizona, not Utah.
