RPGnet Forums

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
If I make a new alt account on there, how do I get onto "Tangency"? I want to post funny screenshots of insane shit they say.

I think you need at least 10 regular posts in other parts of the board first.
I think they upped it to 20 after the reboot but yeah, make an arbitrary number of posts to lose the "new poster" badge and you'll be able to view Tangency. Think of it as an RP opportunity to be an NPC.
 
I'm terrible at RPing as a soylennial shitlib but thanks for the advice. I'll be giving it a try.
As far as rpg.net is concerned, a soylennial shitlib is a fascist. You have to go much further than that to avoid detection around there:
  • You need a self-diagnosed mental illness
  • You are transgender
  • You never go outside
  • You have cut yourself off from your family because your sister sat the 2020 election out after Bernie didn't get the nom, and the rest of the family refused to disown her for enabling fascism. She's also a cis woman who refuses to accept your femininity.
  • You do not play D&D. You think it's a serious problem that the RPG community centers the creation of white cisgendered males
 
If you want to infiltrate the boards, just stay away from controversial political posts because that's where people get flagged and banned. Comment on random game and geek interest threads, avoid controversy, stay under the radar. A few times, signal that you are a concerned citizen on the right side of history, but not in a loud way.

That's how my 3000 alts did it (you may know them as prominent RPGNet posters and at least one mod).
 
Alright, someone parse this for me because what I'm getting is euthanasia = eugenics = bad

Elves are just better at everything, including killing elves.


I am curious as to how their hardline stance against AI will go if Silicon Valley gets their way and it becomes more heavily integrated into the internet.
No one will remember they were ever opposed to AI in two years from now (because the chips in their heads won't let them).
 
Elven smith: Behold, my finest work, a sword that is as light as a feather, grants its wielder the power to fly, and shields its bearer against the magical assaults of evil. I shall name it Elan'dir, and it shall be used to defend our sky-castle that only appears in the material realm once every 728 years.
Dwarven smith: I made an axe that can also be used to sterilize rat meat, which I eat frequently. I will hide it in a latrine.
This is why dwarves are superior and in any conflict between elves and dwarves, elves will end up as piles of hacked-up knife-eared dumb fucking meat.

(And yes I know I've responded to this twice because Dwarvish supremacy is just that important.)

Those who are the left side of history believe that assisted suicide is just a stepping stone to the Hitler coming back to life. When Canada brought assisted suicide into law many activists in that country started screaming that it was only a matter of time before disabled people would be forced into the program as a cost cutting program. Also that the program was eugenics in disguise and that it needs to be scrapped.

TL;DR, crazy people think crazy shit. Don't listen or talk to them.

It's super easy.

Just go take any point from a neo-nazi or fascist board (or just make it up if you can) - then swap out all the racial slurs and put in "whites" or "male."

I'm not even really joking. The grievance paper hoax involved reprinting Mein Kampf in a feminist magazine by replacing "jew" with "men" and heck the "neo-nazi or moviebob" quiz is pretty much the same idea.

Remember also you want to stir up dissension so constantly be on the lookout for the worst faith interpretation of people's posts. Never directly accuse anyone either. Lob bombs while pretending to be nice. "Now everyone, I'm sure Sarah here didn't intend to insult black people or gays when she said that awful thing. Sure she keeps doing it every week, but I think she's getting better and we should keep giving her a chance no matter how racist she is."

They have expanded the program to allow people suffering from depression to opt out of life, so it isn't THAT big of a stretch.
 
Assisted suicide + socialized medicine = inevitable culling because "suicide" will be the cheapest option in a vast number of cases.
Considering how bad the wait times and availability of care are in the Canadian system, it's a death sentence to get a lot of diseases anyway.

Almost every type of cancer that is curable if detected early is death for Canadians due to waits of up to 2 years for oncologists.
 
When you're too much of a pansy for rpgcodex?
And rpgcodex are mostly 80s crpg grognards, didn't see much tabletop discussion there.
 
A couple of pages back, they had a struggle session about the state of the forum and how it was rapidly turning into a ghost town. Those who gave any answers that were at all spicy were, of course, banned.
"Perhaps we shouldn't reflexively ban people just for not knowing all the shibboleths we have here" is, for RPG.net, a red-hot spicy take.
