Danced a little too close to the line at TBP a few weeks ago. Nothing happened, but it made my antennae twitch enough to want to implement a Plan B.
We don’t allow politics but one of the humorous things I’ve noted over the years are some people calling us both a right and a left forum at the exact same time during certain events in the Pub’s history.Unlike a lot of you folks, I am broadly in agreement with the politics of TBP.
Bloody centrists!We don’t allow politics but one of the humorous things I’ve noted over the years are some people calling us both a right and a left forum at the exact same time during certain events in the Pub’s history.
Don't play TTRPGs these days. I am a long-haul trucker. My ability to meet with others regularly for gaming (or anything else, really) is non-existent.What games do you play, Afterburner ?
Welcome, Y yosemitemike ! What games do you play?

That was one of my favorite Pub moments.

Don't forget Furries! I like to pretend to be a mutant weasel with armadillo playing and clown fish coloration.Or that we're a bunch of wussies because we don't want to argue extremist politics all the time on a forum dedicated to pretending to be hobbits and space aliens.
Call it emotional fatigue, I volunteered and had to call thousands of Hoosiers to ask them to vote for Obama, talk about soul destroying.Or that we're a bunch of wussies because we don't want to argue extremist politics all the time on a forum dedicated to pretending to be hobbits and space aliens.
That's old age talking. Rejuvenate yourself - embrace your inner ultracunt!Yeah but seriously, the effort one has to put into being an ultra cunt just isn't worth the effort. It's exhausting, I'd personally rather go take a nap if I were feeling cuntish.

Unlike a lot of you folks, I am broadly in agreement with the politics of TBP. My big issue these days is that I don't feel like it's possible to criticize the moderation or the moderators without a significant amount of forelock-tugging. They've reached the point where anybody who criticizes them for any reason must by definition be a member of the alt-right, because who else could possibly have a problem with what they're doing and how they're going about it?
Still not sure if I'm gonna stick around. Y'all really like your megathreads around here, and I'm not much of a megathread guy. But my interactions so far have been pleasant, and I do like that I can (in theory, haven't done it yet) talk about my enjoyment of monoculture races in my high fantasy games -- Drow elves in particular -- without being branded a cryptoracist.

Mustn’t forget the appeal process that I’m not convinced actually exists. They certainly never acknowledged either of mine one way or another.Did I sign up a second account in my sleep? Because that was 100% my experience too.
I think the process involves long winding queues and Vogon poetry.Mustn’t forget the appeal process that I’m not convinced actually exists. They certainly never acknowledged either of mine one way or another.

I don't see why not? Kinda confused, you've been here like six years? Ya get lost on the way to the latrine? (Having done that I had to ask). Welcome back regardless.This looks like a good place to talk about games once in a while. I'm very glad to see it's still going.
Hope it's okay if I'm here.
I for one sure hope you don't leave. I used to enjoy your posts on rpg.net and look forward to reading more of them here. I still log in to post there from time to time.I used to mod on rpg.net. I haven't logged in there in over two years, and I didn't come here to talk about it. But if there are still hard feelings, or if my being here bugs anyone, no problem, I'll go elsewhere.
Cessna, we welcome you here with open arms. That’s the honest to God truth. I hope you didn’t feel like you couldn’t post here the last few years because you were helping run the forum over there for a long time.I used to mod on rpg.net.

You're welcome here, Cessna . What games do you play?
I hope you stay and keep posting. I doubt anyone gives you any problems here and if it did, we come down hard on that. The Pub was meant to kind of give everyone a fresh start if they wanted it. Be fresh!
Ooo, it's always great to have another one of us here. What period/systems do you play? (I've been getting heavily into various Osprey stuff recently).I'm mostly a tabletop wargamer (Historicals) these days. I do play in a couple of zoom-based rpgs with friends, but, well, they drift and it's mostly an excuse to stay in touch with people I wouldn't see otherwise due to geography.
Yeah, I don't think anyone cares what you did elsewhere. Most of us find the other site useful in some way off an on. I like to read reviews of game material, usually to give me insight on mechanics usually. Don't ever care to post there but I'd never hold it against someone who was a mod there who came here to read and post. Here at the pub we occasionally groose about other places but mostly we just enjoy talking about games, being off topic and worrying about the upcoming Goose Apocalypse!I knew I liked this place for a reason.
Unless you've been rude about FASERIP on another board. Tristram keeps a file.Yeah, I don't think anyone cares what you did elsewhere.
Edit: I'm a lapsed war gamer from the late 70s and into the 80s. One of these days I'll fall back into that pool I'm sure, since I keep eyeballing it hard.

Nice weathering on the AT-ST.Geez, I don't even know where to begin. I've got WAY too much stuff and way too many projects.
The most recent game I played was Eagles of Empire, it's skirmish gaming in the Franco-Prussian War in 28mm scale. The weekend before that I did some American Revolution stuff in 15mm scale; I only got one pic that came out well:
Oh, also, I recently painted some stuff for Star Wars: Legion. I know it's not Historical, I might re-use the figures for an FFG Star Wars rpg at some point:
I'm also working on some Hoth Rebels for that game.

After seeing what they did with the Conan properties I'm waiting for the inevitable end of license sale to pick the line up but I agree it looks gorgeous!Edit: Oh, also, I just picked up Modiphius' Dune. I don't love the system, but the books (for the rpg) are good and I have loved the system since I was a kid. I don't know what I'll do with it - maybe make some mods or use a different system - but it's at the top of "games to play if I get time." I've posted a bit about that in the Roleplaying Games forum here.
let me echo the other mods. you're welcome here. We are not real hot on cross board drama. https://www.rpgpub.com/threads/beginners-guide-to-the-rpgpub.8516/ details our overall view on things.I used to mod on rpg.net.

same. i'll probably wait as well, though it does look nice!After seeing what they did with the Conan properties I'm waiting for the inevitable end of license sale to pick the line up but I agree it looks gorgeous!
What games are on your list to play? I goty first in person board game group back together last week after a 6 month hiatus and I'm missing them and gaming in general.This seems a good opportunity to plug the informal Pub Boardgames group. We've been a bit lazy about getting games together recently but I'm happy to host wargames for anyone who's interested. We generally play on TTS.
Probably board wargames.
I'm happy to do minis games if the interest is there, but it will need someone who knows how to do that technically on TTS. I have no idea and Brock Savage's tech knowledge stops in the era of Livejournal and Geocities.
Kinda like being at the market and eye balling the choice cuts of meat, I'm just looking and twitching. Around where I now live, there is some Battletech, WH40k, Star Wars Space Battles, Star Wars Legion, Kings of War and the like. I also think there is some historical wargaming, just not sure what exactly yet.What're you looking at? There are some great games out there.
No way! I played in a Marvel Superheroes game back in the day, I loved that system. Hell, I should track down a copy.
