I miss that insufferable nutball. Hope he's still alive, grognarding it up somewhere out there on the webs.
Silva was far less amusing. The Powered by the Apocalypse engine needs to power itself into a fire and die there.
Whatever happened to shadzar?

For a minute, I used to be "a guy" in the TTRPG "industry". Now I'm just a nobody. For the most part, it's a relief.

Oh, that's actually...infuriating. And sad.
So shadzar thinks that women and gays and blacks and Mexicans aren't allowed to play D&D? And as a hipster designer I'm especially offended by those two being included on the list.
Well, FUCK HIM. Glad he's banned.
I used to think his incoherent grognard nonsense was so cute.

Yep, he's virtually impossible to understand but that was his point - games should be designed for the people that play them. I don't think he was against considering the wishes of any particular minority group if they were gamers , but didn't see a point in being inclusive for the sake of inclusivity.
But I don't think the place is any worse for him being gone.

The fact that he was purposefully dense enough to require 'interpretation' says a lot. I understand he wasn't like that on other forums.schpeelah wrote:My interpretation was that he wanted to pretend that games can be designed for "gamers" in complete disconnect from who those gamers otherwise are. Because what you want from RPGs is completely independent of your background and generally the rest of your life.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.
