PBeM2 is an automated game opening announcement and recruitment center for web-based roleplaying games. Because listings over 10 days old are purged nightly,...
Is anyone actually paying attention? Or are you all, like, running games or something absurd like that. Anyway, if anyone is actually reading this, I'd like to...
*blush* Thanks for the welcome. I do indeed co-moderate Hogwarts Hocus on Livejournal. I have little to no tabletop experience (like, a friend of mine got...
Welcome, Prima! It's not that we're all busy, it's that we need fresh meat! Uh, I mean, fresh discussion ideas. Please tell me you've got a player or game...
Of course we read this, every day I think, "Damn I wish I had a problem that I could discuss on here." Then I think, "Well I think I'm glad for that really." ...
I feel it is important to make a confession. I've been using another player's character in my own game without his knowledge. So what is the same. The name is...
This is a character in the same game? Or a character from another game? Either way, break out the ice packs, my friend, you're going to hell. *lol* Ok,...
Different game. It was my own fault, when I first used them, I meant to only use them once, so I was too lazy to change the name. But they worked so well as...
In an attempt to try and keep people thinking on things and to ask random questions. Your character and another player's character have known each other since...
... I'd be OK with it. Provided I knew the other person's playing style well enough. I guess it'd also depend on the story somewhat. If it makes my character...
I'd only allow such a thing if both players worked on it in advance just to avoid any grief or such. ... -- --I know there are no lifeguards in the gene pool,...
From the clinical definition, I'd say that does count as controlling someone else's character. You're defining their past, however insignificant the part,...
... controlling ... if ... philosophical ... grind to ... been ... and ... a ... to ... I'd ... my ... the ... that ... Now personally I try to avoid doing...
By imposing a childhood acquaintance upon someone else's character, that might already count as controlling someone else's character. :o) It would be a larger...
Yes, it could be considered to be controlling the other player's character. I've kinda done something similar a few times in the past, where my character has...
... character, that might already count as controlling someone else's character. :o) It would be a larger imposition to declare them to be childhood friends or...
... a ... nature ... It is completely ok, as many people enjoy reminding me, the world does not revolve around me. So you had a funeral? See, this is a...
I'll start off with the important comment: the term "werebear" makes me giggle. Secondary comments: The one game I have seen where there was a similar weight ...
Anyone ever perticipate (either as the Game Manager or a player) in a plot that was really, really fun for them - something that just sticks out in your memory...
So there's been a lot of discussion over on the RPG Player Sanctuary list, a lot of it childish (some of that childishness coming from my very own keyboard,...
We've had this discussion in a number of ways over the years, but, again, since it came up elsewhere, I got to thinking about it. What makes a good and...
I've got a whole different view of this topic after 18 months of running pbem2 - and my main peeve is people who put extra characters in their ads as ...
... Admittedly, I haven't been playing as much lately (I've joined two sims in the past four years as a player). It's because I really haven't found any game ...
I wouldn't say that the RPGverse is in a decline, but more undergoing a shift of paradigim. I think I started back around '02-'03 and compared to then, now...
Had to pop in at Sanctuary and see what the hub-bub was about, and somehow ended up back in 2005 with Gregory declaring "An RPG is a DICTATORSHIP, not a...
I'm going to go out on a limb and propose the idea that the number and quality of writers in the RPGverse has never changed. People are constantly coming and...
This thread made me wonder what any of us would think of the RPGverse today if we had just discovered it. If it was, to us, all shiny and new again. I was...
