This is entirely for free and is fan content, so enjoy! I will be using this for my own games primarily but figured people would enjoy using it as well.

Barbarian is an excellent film on a number of levels.

I've heard that no one saw the actual letter when being asked to sign in support.

When he reached out to me he certainly did not offer it immediately at all. I didnt ask because I blocked immediately, but yeah.

Very shady tactic and he knows it.

I honestly wasn't sure about posting about this, but I was reached out to and asked to sign this thing. I ignored it and blocked it.

@cardtitan.bsky.social is making a good decision here. There's lots of stories here about this player's behavior last year. It's not cool.

Evan Lewis @akaleth.bsky.social · 7d

A group of losers put together an open letter to @cardtitan.bsky.social criticizing their decision to ban Joe Brennan from Eternal Weekend this year.

If you, like me, support their decision, TELL THEM. Message them, email them, show them that you support their decision to make EW safer.

I am going to agree here that this is absolutely insane, and I really hope that this language gets squashed.

Don't let these bad actors into your communities, folks.

Miabyte🎙️— 🎃 Spooky Villain Hero 👻 @miabyte.bsky.social · 7d

This is why I was concerned about that original post.

I worry that the worst kinds of people will latch onto the 'pigs and slop' language to harass both Wizards & players.

I've seen it before. I worry that this is how a fandom splinters. Usually the next step is bad actors monopolising on it.

Joy Makes Monsters - General Art Goblin! @joymakesmonsters.bsky.social · 8d

PLEASE read Kickstarter and product descriptions. LOTS of #ttrpg projects are using AI (they don't give a shit about the project, just about getting money) and hiding the info at the bottom of a WALL of text and add-ons.

The games and the players deserve better than being treated as Whales.
