Moron newfag.
This is really the quality of poster that this threat attracts?
>>
>>97971224
if this is a genuine thread please consider moving to the OSR thread instead >>97969950
this naming is confusing and the osrg-tards will come after you either way
>>
>>97971359
Wow what an interesting and relevant post, I'm really glad that this threat exists so we can continue getting such an incredible content!
>>
>>97971401
They will come no matter what you name it, just flag Thier trolling and off topic posts, do not engage and move on
>>
>>97971453
If you look in that thread you might come to the uncomfortable conclusion that the "osrg-tards" are currently contributing more interesting discussion and helpful answers to people than the salty cocksuckers such as yourself.
>>
>>97971401
Fuck off back to your containment thread and leave us alone.
>>
>>97971505
>more interesting discussion and helpful answers

...NTA, but I almost think you actually believe that. You really do seem like the guy who imagines he's smart and interesting even when everyone does everything they can to just avoid them because they're so fucking boring and stupid.
>>
>>97971617
>You weren't cool enough for reddit, you didn't get any admittance into their club, that means... Well it just means something okay!

Getting banned from those websites is a badge of honor, yes.
Just because you are from those places and want them to respect you, doesn't matter to us one bit.
>>
>>97971637
You got banned for brigading, not for being too cool.
The kind of cope you come up with is genuinely amazing. I bet you think everyone hates you because they all just think you're "too cool".
>>
>>97971653
I've never been banned from a site I've never signed up from.
But brigading sounds pretty cool, and it sounds like you have never gotten over it years later.

Are you really trying to convince me that something I think is good, is actually bad, because you say so? Retard 2efag
>>
>>97971653
>Too cool
So are you actually a ESL or something, or do you just not understand how words work or what they mean?
>>
>>97971681
>But brigading sounds pretty cool
It's actually pretty gay.
>>
>>97971690
It's enough to still make you butthurt years later apparently, and anything that does that is good in my book
>>
>>97971453
exactly!
so in the very least it makes sense to drop the thread name that is vague and unclear and just give a relevant name, like OSR thread
let's say some dude wants to discuss mothership, or Cairn, or Labyrinth Lord
how the fuck is he supposed to figure out he needs /todd/ for that?
>>
>>97971401
Fuck off fishfag
>>
>>97971819
If he did a ctrl+F for "osr" in the catalog, this thread pops up because OSR-adjacent is in the first line of the OP.
Otherwise, this hypothetical dude needs to lurk moar
>>
>>97971859
splintering the opposition is a sign of bought opposition
but whatever or whatever

I'll be sure to make better OP pics though!
so you better shape up nagger
I'm telling you, get your ass on the interwebs and get some good picrels for future OPs, son
you better shape up! is what I'm telling

Seriously fuck off with the fake hillbilly accent

>>97971819
>let's say some dude wants to discuss mothership, or Cairn, or Labyrinth Lord
>how the fuck is he supposed to figure out he needs /todd/ for that?
He doesn't. Make threads about what you want. Don't depend on generals to aggregate a bunch of shit together, if there's enough community generals form, not the other way around. You'd know this if you weren't a tourist.

Why did you post this thread when the other one is still active?
>>
>>97971530
If you think that
>Hey guys did you hear for the 67th time that ACKS was banned from Reddit! Fucking Poggers!
Is more interesting than a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of a 2e style Proficiency system as opposed to feats, kits, ect, in terms of what's best for character customization and giving the PCs skills?
Why are you even here?
>>
>>97971819
>mothership, or Cairn
Those aren't OSR games, however. Labyrinth Lord is naturally welcome in /osrg/. Not that there's a lot to say about it as distinct from B/X.
>>
>>97971934
>splintering the opposition is a sign of bought opposition
>t. guy who made yet another fake /osrg/ and is trying to push people there from here for purposes of thread warring
>>
>>97971335
It's as gloriously stupid as I remember.

>>97973753
NTA but it's always a woot to reread that right. Some part of you goes "players can't be that dumb" but the you recall how players are.

No this is for old-school games that aren't /osr/.

So you can't discuss LBB/OD&D or B/X or BECMI/Rules Cyclopedia or ACKS or OSE. Those are at /osrg/.

But you can discuss AD&D 2e, Mausritter, Knave, Into the Odd, Troika, Mork Borg, WWN, BFRPG, anything that takes the /osr/ era, learned from it, and decided to evolve past it instead of digging in its heels insisting it was already god's perfect game that cannot be improved.
>>
>>97974140
you might be in the wrong thread

You're like a drunk that wanders into a cockfight and starts yelling, "Kill the fucking Indian!"

Nah. The entire point of the thread is that you can discuss all of it. If somebody wants to take aspects of 2e and put them in B/X that's exactly why this thread exists.
>>
>>97974354
you'll come to regret that.
>>
>>97974140
>BECMI
>/osrg/
Rookie mistake.
>>
>>97974354
>If somebody wants to take aspects of 2e and put them in B/X
If somebody wants to do that then they are retarded
>>
>>97976807
Eh I like 2e more than BX, look at OSE advanced, that's what they did and it is better than just OSE IMO
>>
>>97974354
>The entire point of the thread is that you can discuss all of it.
says you, fishfag.
>>
>>97971224
why the fanwiki instead of the regalgoblin/purpleworm official CD rip site?

https://regalgoblins.com/2erules/
>>
>>97974140
>Those are at /osrg/.
Slight problem, /osrg/ is dead to me. Hence I will discuss it here
>aren't /osr/
Lol. Lmao.
>>
so, i'm probably a bit of an idiot, but how does this archive link works?
>>
>>97981148
