nerds don't give a shit about your gender, skin colour, sexual preference, etc

they just want to play the game

but then these "oppressed victims" turn up and try to force their private life into the game

"my elf is a transgender dragonkin who carries a dildo in hir backpack"

fuck

right

off

we're all here to make believe, put down your imaginary Tumblr bullshit and pick up your imaginary dungeons and dragons hat

your bullshit does not matter here

they're only "not welcome" because *they* don't want to associate with **white males**

so they exclude themselves intentionally

I mean "my elf is a transgender dragonkin who carries a dildo in hir backpack" is not that bad, I can see a funny DnD campaign where the party gets on it's way to get the Elf a permanent polymorph to make his lifegoal coem true

yeah it could be entertaining but for them, those things are the defining qualities and entire reason for being for their characters

But I can also see such people getting triggered by this. You're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't

forcing people to recognise their pronouns is more important than slaying goblins

And such things should be fun for all the players. If the rest don't like it it shouldn't be played. But then these people screech about discrimination and bigotry and try to get you banned from your gameshop

and that's why nobody likes them ... and not because they identify as apache helicopter furry kin or something like that

I was in a game for a little while with an sjw girl

she was an obnoxious sanctimonious cunt that could not communicate reasonably with anyone and absolutely could not take criticism

That really sucks, you have my sympathy

I've luck and only had to deal with the usual player problems, like ego and mixing plaxer knowledge

oh she was also abusing the shit out of player knowledge

I left that game and felt a lot better for it lol

it's game night tonight with my main group actuakly

sounds like today's session is the one where we finally get our moving city lol

moving city - I am intrigued

we're playing kingmaker, managed to convince the GM to let our alchemist animate the city

through a combination of rules as interpreted and rule of cool, we've come up with something that is technically legal

But my GF and me are leaving our aktual group too. GM is getting lazy as fuck and has no motivation to continue our campaign. And then there is ego shit, but that was not so bad, could deal with it

I played the kingmaker campaign too as DM, it's really nice, we played to the third book if I remember correclty, but then my group lost interest. It's the same with the campaign we are leaving now. these people can't hold interst for a longer time, it's annoying. But it's cool that your DMyllows it, that's how roleplaying schould be, if it works in the world and doesn't brak the campign, allow the players some shit that is fun. And later they have to deal with all the consequences of their wish

haha yeah our GM is all about making us regret our shenanigans at a later date

Hehe exactly. But that's what makes a campaign engaging. to see that your deeds have lasting consequences, that you have impact on the world. And it's bloody fun to see your players suffer for their misbehavings XD

I'd love to have an in-person game, but only got roll20 at the moment :(

in Person game ?

at a table with real people

rather than online/voice only

ah okay

in person is cool, you can throw dice and stuff at other people and eat their last gummybears when they are on the toilet XD

But it's nice, especially if you can play stuff like Cthulhu in the dark only with candlelight, that brings a lot of atmosphere and fun

I have seen discriminating ones. They come in the form of *Women in Gaming* ect.

In the community in my area I haven't seen shit like that yet, luckily
