Okay this notion was kinda vaguely inspired by seeing some of the sentiments in the Moderation Style/Feedback post, and it's just one of the random tangents I have had that has absolutely nothing to do with rpgs
If this forum is an analogy for an actual Pub, then what kind of Pub do you envision when you come in here?
Pubs come in different shapes, sizes, tones, etc so I expect some of us have different associations depending on background etc.
This thread could die a death, or it could become one of those spiraling tangents that never die, like the What Are You Listening To? thread...
Feel free to post elaborate descriptions, pics, memes, etc
I'll kick it off:
Initally I envisioned an old english tavern, something like you would see in the Cotswolds. Or perhaps an iconic Boston pub, like the 'Cheers' pub from the tv show. Or even The Prancing Pony in Bree...
However, the more that I chill here, the Pub has taken on quite a different flavour for me.
I'ld like to think it's one of those laid back tropical resort tiki bars where we are all sipping rum cocktails and rolling dice.
A mild breeze is blowing throw the open doors and windows, the place is warm but not humid, and some laid-back vibes are playing in the background. Could be reggae, classic calypso, blues, acoustic guitar, smooth jazz sax, chill electronica, dub, whatever floats the boat.
Let life go by somewhere else, this place is casual and that's the attraction.
Someone is ranting about the latest rpg, and we're all ears. Someone else is pushing a game which was published when Plato was young, and we're all up for that. Someone else is getting loud over the last Star Wars flick, while someone else is discussing Lost In Space re-runs.
We've got new designer game dice, and we're got the old chalk-in polydice. It's all here, everyone is having a chuckle and ideas are rifting.
I'm sitting back in the corner, holding an exotic drink, and somehow my accent is sounding more Jamacian by the minute.
That's the kind of pub I want to visit when I show up here...
