We got in touch and it's sorted out. :)

I'm allowed to continue calling mine Mechfinder and can call a Starfinder 2nd edition update (if I make one) Mechfinder as well.

We have provided disambiguation to denote that each others work is a separate product.

Is "Dragon and Dungeon" a thing because I can't find it from google? x'D

I'm still in an ongoing game where I'm playing a trans wizard who got turned into an ice elemental because of touching cursed things (we knew they were cursed but wizard had to know the *specifics* of the curse and also it was very shiny). And honestly, being an ice elemental is pretty cool. :P

Did you know that the kiwi is the only bird that lays an egg larger than itself?
That's not possible, but it does lay an egg that's about 15% of its body weight.

It's something I enjoy telling people when kiwis come up because it's funny and easy to disprove just by thinking for a second. :P

Hello!

I still exist, apparently.

Interesting. Thank you.

Does anyone still have their hands on any of these things distributed during the initial marketing push for 5E? I'm having trouble finding the old stuff they sent out telling people how to discuss the thing as retailers and spokespeople.

I was just wondering about what happened to Mechfinder! It's glorious and very intuitive.

Very belatedly, here's the pdf link to it (others were requesting it but I forgot to check back in here for a long time).

At least it's not *only* phone. It's a nightmare to deal with services only accessible via phone when you're someone with both speaking and hearing difficulties.

To anyone saying the tag is hard to do:

Custom tags already exist. They can just add them. They've already done so for people before.

Adding a 'banned' display element does not change the username itself.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Good thing nobody is asking for the actual username itself to be altered.


2 people marked this as a favorite.

Yeah, that's all that's needed. I didn't mean like an actual modification of their username. Just a display thing.

It'd ease things a lot around here. Too often we're left wondering if some bigot is still there, waiting to pounce.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Thank goodness. I wish we could know for sure (like a 'banned' affix on their name).

And before someone goes 'it's not fair to ban someone for one ignorant mistake,' I will remind you that there are people active on these forums that reliably display the same ignorance over and over at every opportunity.

I have my own cybernetic weapon.

So you know what. I'm going to just start flagging dogwhistles as hate speech.

Mods, you have to deal with this.


7 people marked this as a favorite.

I just noticed the flagging options have been changed. There's no longer an 'offensive/insulting' option. You have to outright call something hate speech or harassment now.

This reduces our ability to condemn dogwhistles.

The thing about autistic rep is that it's usually terrible when neurotypical writers intentionally write a character as autistic, and better when they *accidentally* write a character in a way that autistic people see and take hold of as their own.

As it happens, I'm a severely disabled amputee and I would very much like replacement parts, so I don't like it when people write stories about people like me being less than human.

A core part of cyberpunk by allocishet white writers is the fear of the 'other', as represented by cybernetics. See how often cyberpunk stories angst over the loss of humanity or the soul when someone gets a robot arm.

Transphobia slides in with effortless ease. The fear of body modification was already there. This is more of the same to them.

Take care. Things do really suck lately around here; the slavery discourse has been cancerous. TwilightKnight in particular needs to get banned before I do for flaming him out of existence.

It's stunning that he hasn't been banned.

Rahadoum's problem is that during early development Golarion you literally had to have a country of, erm, "mindless savage primitive orc barbarians who KILLMURDERR-WORD because that's what all orcs do and that's why you kill them on sight" to qualify as Evil without asterisks.

Isn't that Belkzen?

Rahadoum is kinda in weird place because its oppressive anti religious government that does remind of real life religious oppression, but its considered LN despite being portrayed as bad guys because... I guess they aren't as malicious as the actual Evil governments?

(That and Pathfinder has weird habit of treating religious worship and cultures separately while real life religions are usually heavy part of cultures even if member of culture isn't religious. I think its side effect of "gods are real and kind of role models rather than faiths per say")

Like... In early Pathfinder lot of neutral governments are actually quite bad on moral side, they just aren't openly malicious than stuff like Nidal and Cheliax is

There could be a more nuanced rewrite of Rahadoum.

But for now we have militant nu-atheist youtubers given their own country.

What happened? And yes, I did googling, but my own social media PTSD meant I couldn't look too far in certain areas. Sorry.

Hello disabled gang!

Severe myalgic encephalomyelitis here, too. It's probably worse than the PTSD or the amputation, honestly.

I sacrificed my star sign for dark power. Now I am without sign. Anyone trying to read my horoscope just ends up staring into the infinite reaches of the void and I have to snap them out of it.

It's actually kind of annoying.

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) was started in 1999 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was killed in 1998. The vigil commemorated all the transgender people lost to violence since Rita Hester's death, and began an important tradition that has become the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance.

Thank you. This is much better than it was.

So now that it's out, who has had the opportunity to compare the systems?

Mechfinder reference

If one were to expand Mechfinder, what could you steal from Tech Revolution (or vice versa)?

The problem was that the elephant guns had been in the armoury this entire time. Tonya just kept the door locked while the rest of the team was clamouring for them.

Thanks to the team for doing their work now that they're allowed to.

I have only ire for management.
