@midwinter I would appreciate if you would leave the topic for now. You have stated your views and are unmoved by the arguments against it, which fair enough, but the last pages show signs of trolling. The debate has gone on long enough and is as I've stated before utterly pointless. So I'm asking you - and the rest of the keyboard warriors of high emotion here - please drop the topic.

@Cultist of Sooty I can only talk for myself, but my views on the topic pretty much align with what @Sumath has written in this thread. I probably react more to foul language and reductio ad hitlerum than baiting rants, which might show itself in the few instances of moderation there has been.

And this used to be such a nice Site.

I wonder what happened.

Just don't read this thread and report if it blows up anywhere else. We'll quarantine it here.

Well, I hope you aren't employed by Chaosium. Calling customers odious is bad for business I think.

Just so there's no misunderstandings - no one from Chaosium are actively participating in this thread. All the Chaosium representatives are moderators. I'm the forum admin moderating this hot potatoe of a thread, but I'm not a Chaosium employee.

At last! ;)

*I'd like to go on record now as saying these arguments here are entirely not good faith, they are passive-aggressive character attacks and why they slide under the auditor radar as "okay" is unclear to me

Well, as this is a thread of predictably baiting rants and triggered responses, I'd say none of the arguments are entirely in good faith, on either side. I would hazard to guess that all participating in this thread know the debate is utterly pointless as it's one of those that really only boils down to "I'm right and your point of view is stupid". 

With "political correctness" as a tag for the thread, I never expected a civil discourse and passive-agressive arguments were to be expected, but at least now it's not cluttering up the other threads that actually focus on roleplaying. 

As stated before, this is a lightly moderated forum were members are expected to self-moderate. The auditor radar has quite poor resolution, but this has worked very well until recently... 

Aggressive and blatant personal attacks will not be tolerated, but I'll let you score your rethorical points at each other up until that to keep it contained here. 

Alastor's Skull Inn is the forum for "everything else", so I don't mind the thread, but PLEASE mind the language. It should be possible to get ones point across without the use of bad language and personal attacks. And if it's not, then use the "Ignore user" feature. Members here ARE expected to self-moderate themselves.

The thing that matters to me most is that the game we all love is opened to EVERYONE, not just people who conform to an exclusive perspective or persuasion. 

I fully agree with this. People differ widely in which gaming style they enjoy the most and none are "right" or "wrong". Everyone should be able to express their perspective and persuasion (within certain limits of course), but should also tolerate that others disagree. This is just a gaming forum after all, it's meant to be fun, no need for it to turn into a political debate. Unless we are discussing Cthulhu for president that is!

In future if looking for a game could I post a LFG thread directly?  I don't want to break any protocols

Also would there be a chance of an official thread being started?

You can just post a LGF thread in the appropriate game forum, for Runequest it would be the Runequest forum, or if you're just looking for any game - the Alastor's Skull forum. Don't worry about breaking any protocols, this is not a rules heavy forum.

I've tried to avoid subforum proliferation and to many stickied threads. We had a LGF stickied before, but it didn't see enough traffic to warrant staying stickied. Just open your own one Brian!

But, yeah, how about that Critical Role playcast?

Think I'll actually have to watch that now!

Breathe...

No more personal attacks please. 

There's always the Alastor's Skull subforum for "everything else", but what is really the point of this "critical topic" about inclusion? It's not like you're convincing each other...

Thanks for the updates and info @Trifletraxor.  And thanks to @Rick Meints for the insight into the contents -- and yes I'd love to see that index book sometime

I might be worth saving what Rick said by moving those messages in a new thread instead of pruning them?

There you go!

Unless everyone lost their Gravitar support won't do much about it. Reupload!

Well, I am sure that when I went to bed last night that I was green and now I seem to be in the pink, Could that be what you are talking about. And all this time I thought it was the troll drinks. 

If you could good sir, I would love to be my usual sickly shade of green, all this healthy pink is scaring me.

It's not easy being green!

@Kloster's profile image appears to be a broken, and it looks like a forum software bug.

@Kloster Could you try to reupload your avatar Kloster? Looks like the forum software has eaten the previous one.

Now that it is out, commercially available, and getting further support, could Delta Green be moved out of 'Upcoming Games'?
Given its own forum under "D100 Family'?

Done. 

We've just completed another update that was rolled out to fix the issues with the previous updates! 😁

Major software update just completed. Please report if you find any bugs! 

Anunnaki's account and posts have now been deleted upon his own request. 

Edit: Posts are supposed to be deleted in batches, so will disappear with time.

It also might be worth updating the subforum's tagline from "Runequest forum for Chaosium's roleplaying game system, classic editions and the upcoming one" since RQG has, after all, upcame.  

You got a point there!

Please increase the maximum number of possible 'likes' per day. Some days the good posts pile up high

Upped!

This appears to be working now! Whatever comes after the thread ID is ignored, and the link forwards to the latest thread name. Maybe this was fixed by a forum software update after I tried it and found it not working.

That's actually an excellent update!

Been doing some troubleshooting which I hope have fixed the issue, but please let me know of any remaining issues! 

Sure!
