sexpig by night posted:You know what that is fair, the original Death Wish series was just typical for the time "THE CITIES ARE MAD HOUSES IF ONLY A HERO WOULD RISE (and kill everyone)". Problematic elements to that whole concept, but not exactly uniquely bad compared to its peers. He's an old fart who murks more people than every modern action movie protagonist except for maybe John Wick which is loving badass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRAT1-c7q98

Any thoughts about the Fantasy Protocol KS? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/218255739/protocol-fantasy-game-omnibus?ref=home_recommended It sounds a bit like Fiasco and the descriptions of the various games being collected seem cool, but I've never heard of it and have no idea if the rules hold up.

The only good thing about Death Wish and its ilk is that they resulted in Falling Down being made.

Death Wish is basically a slasher movie where the psychopathic killer happens to be the protagonist.

Since a few people seemed to have questions about the flow of Summerland, I asked Greg about it and he posted an update with a little bit about the D6 system and a description of the flow of a campaign.

Cartel is by Magpie Games and MDT, and I'm still boycotting Magpie Games because MDT hasn't apologized for when he decided the best use of his company's blog was to carry water for Zakman.

Mark Diaz Truman wrote a blog post about how both sides needed to be more civil, and that everyone had good points and people shouldn't say such mean things about Zak S because don't you know hate just begets more hate. It was mealy-mouthed "truth-is-in-the-middle" centrist pablum.

Yep, the game looks cool but I'll also be withholding my support. Best thing I can say about Magpie is that when I asked for a refund during the Masks campaign they were polite and prompt.

I mean the shittiest part of that whole thing, to me, isn't even so much the "shouldn't we try to be respectful of this known shithead," it was that MDT did so by throwing one of his friends under the bus in the process.

I'm new to this, but it didn't read that way to me. The guy clearly doesn't like Zak, and doesn't think he's partly right or something. I mean, he's not really talking about Zak at all, he's talking about Rob's post; he thinks telling someone to "go gently caress a goat, you waste of human existence" is wrong, regardless of how bad of a person Zak is. I agree. And if I had to run a public-facing business, I wouldn't want to partner with someone who posted like that. You're burning bridges and not helping anyone. (That said, if I had a business, I wouldn't have written the post MDT wrote either - I'd say stuff privately or not at all. Nobody likes someone "turning on their friend", and other people will be mad you don't hate buddy as much as they do).

Good to know you value not telling abusive assholes who ruin people's lives to gently caress off over not tolerating abusive assholes.

Mors Rattus posted:Good to know you value not telling abusive assholes who ruin people's lives to gently caress off over not tolerating abusive assholes. Well... I'd describe it as "I value not being an abusive rear end in a top hat"; I think it's abusive to tell people to screw goats. I personally am not going to run around policing people's tone or something (and, again, I wouldn't have written this thing that MDT wrote, especially if I was trying to run a business), but I think it'd be better if people didn't tell each other to screw goats - or, at least if they conceded that it wasn't the best idea later. There's better, more productive ways to say whatever it is you want to say. I mean, I guess you disagree, and I'm OK with that. We're many levels removed from the "life ruiner" here - you're mad that I'm not mad enough at someone who was mad at someone for being too mad at someone for "doing the actual thing that was wrong" (I think).

There's better, more productive ways to say whatever it is you want to say. Telling lovely people to gently caress off is, in fact, the best way of dealing with lovely people. The idea that their terrible bullshit requires that all reasonable people treat it as normal discourse for the sake of some ideal of civility and decorum is part of how they get away with being lovely people in polite company for so long.

counterspin posted:Why are you so invested in covering up the actions of lovely people? Are we seriously never supposed to discuss the bad actors in our communities because it's bad form? Well.. to be clear, I'm not very invested at all. I just heard about this here, and it seemed to be big news, so I read the links. After reading the links, I didn't understand the reaction this MDT guy was getting. I still don't really. I posted mainly curious if there was something I was missing. And there must be, I guess, because I'm getting the weird "spill-over anger responses" that normally come for people defending Kingdom Death or something. Anyway, sorry. I'm sure this Zak guy is terrible. Screw you, Zak. Edit: lol - quote:how big was your kingdom death pledge

Aaaanyway, instead of another Zakattack derail, in "lighter" Kickstarter news: Robotech Tactics Kickstarter has made C-list industry news! It looks like only some minor factual errors—I don't think Carmen, the guy who tried to commit suicide, was actually a designer on anything except his board game? And, of course, it's a brief nothing of an article, so it doesn't actually provide much information itself, which is kind of giving a pass to just how dumb and horrible the whole thing is.

He's also banned from rpgnet, as is any discussion of him. If you are still unsure who this person is, a careful reading of the posts on the page above yours may offer insight.

Guy Goodbody posted:I have no idea what Zakman is They're talking about Zak Smith/Zak Sabbath. He develops singleminded, years-long hatreds over mild disagreements or any perceived slight against himself. He stalks and harasses people irl over tabletop rpg drama like a one-man gamergate to the point where at least one of his targets felt the need to move to the other side of the planet to get away from him. He probably still lurks this forum, too, so there's not much reason to have a sideways discussion of him.
