Please consider you might have made a huge mistake in promoting the current person to Director of Community.
Imo the current director has been doing a terrible job of bringing the community together. Thier complete lack of communication is disheartening. They seem like a over zealous moderator at best. The stories I have heard from others interacting with this person from people involved with OPF is also concerning. I feel they don't take the communities concerns to heart and only care about Paizos corporate interests.
Aaron Skanks has been doing a much better job bringing the community together, and it is not even his title.
Please consider this decision again, and who might be a better fit for the postion
During the Gen Con 2021 Telling Tales: Paizo Adventure Paths Panel , Patrick mentions the Impossible Lands Lost Omens Book coming out around the same time as the Alkenstar AP. Has this been mentioned or announced any where else?
I bought a 4 day badge using store credit, and not sure if it went through. (Though It did take store credit out of my account) There is also some weirdness that it says order was placed 11/24/2019 when it was placed today 2/7/2020.
A interesting question came up this weekend. What skills do you use to Identify a troll?
Trolls have The Giant and Troll traits. They do not have any of the traits used to Identify creatures. Looking up Giants, they have the Humanioid trait, so I am inclined to believe they missed that trait in the stat block, but as written, there is no way to identity trolls.
It did lead to some fun during the rest of our game, when ever we could not Identify a creature, it was automatically a troll! xD
Is a Subscription for the Pathfinder Society Quest's something the team might consider in the future?
I would love the option to have a Quest subscription (If I could substitute for The complementary SFS, it would be even more awesome xD ) , though I am not sure how regularly the Quests intend to come out, or if it would make since to make it a subscription.
Just wanted to take some time and acknowledge the wonderful work of the Art/Graphic Design team.
Every book I have picked up for 2e I am blown away by. The art selection is diverse and top notch. The layouts are wonderfully designed in a concise matter. The font selection is superb and I love all the details (Borders, tables stat block layout, side bars, color selections .. etc)
Sarah Robinson and team keep up the great work, Hands down the best art/layout/design in the business in my opinion!!
Recently I have gotten into adventure writing and creating content for 5e. Something that I have found awesome is the DMguild. The ability to write and add content/adventures for the Forgotten Realms (and now Ebberon) is amazing. With such a rich history it is fun to research and add to the world.
The thing is , I actually find Golarion to be my favorite setting. Reading all about PF2 has got me excited, but at the same time, a little frustrated that I would not be able to add to the stories / setting that I love.
Do you think paizo will ever create something similar to the DMguild or open up the world of Golarion to content creators? I think it would be a wise step in the right direction, and seems to be the way the industry is going towards.
How much of the campaign setting will change with PF2? Will all the lore still be true? How much value will the campaign setting books hold in 2nd edition? (Rather than some/most of the rule content out of date, incompatible) .
Are there plans to rerealse this content for 2nd edition or is the lan to continue to expand and update the setting (With all the previous lore/content/locations still being viable) ?
Golarion has always been my favorite part of Pathfinder . I would love to keep the value in my collection of books (and use them in 2nd edition) and hope this is gonna be possible!

Location: Lambreth , River Kingdoms
Characters: Lvl 4 - Pregen or 20 point build (All Classes expect - Summoner (Unchained Summoner OK) 3rd Party OK with Approval)
Game Length - 4 Hours
Please read info on locations and make a simple backstory for your character as well.
You are a slave of Kentith Puhitcha, the largest grape grower in Galt and one of most productive wine manufactures in all of Golarion. Red Blade, the signature drink of the winery has become a favorite beverage of the Grey Gardner's. You work hard for long hours of the day. You are lucky to be fed two meals a day. Conditions are grim. The farm is located in the Horum Plain's west of the capital city of Isarn in the country of Galt. Some of you were born here. Others bought at various auctions. Your hard work has made the Puhitcha family very rich.
Most of your brothern and sistern are scared and weak. A few of you have shown courage and addressed wishes to escape or rebel, though most of the others wouldn't dare. Last night at the shack they call the "Halfling House" there was whispers among the halflings of trying to seriously plan an escape. The six of you, stood up and decided to work on a plan.
Escape from Galt will be an all halfling themed adventure. The characters will start out with low power and have to use their wits and each other to escape, if not survive.
What Im Looking For:
4-5 Players that:
-Enjoy Roleplaying
-Have Basic Knowledge of Golarion (Particularly Galt and Halflings)

There seems to be a chunk of store credit (76.62) applied to my account, that I do not know where it came from.
The only thing I can think of is: recently I had a pending order canceled (This order was to be added to my subscriptions, but then I lost my job. yadda yadda, and had to cancel the order. It stayed pending for a couple months. (Order: 3080696) . I am pretty sure my card was never charged for this transaction. (Maybe it was? Or I used store credit(gift certificate) and forgot about it?)
Could you look into this please? Don't want to spend it if it was an error.
I am running an adventure in Golarion (Absalom) this Sunday via Roll20 and could use a few more players.
Roll20.net is an easy to learn, fully functional virtual table top.
Newcomers welcome.
For more than 4,000 years, Absalom (pronounced AB-sah-lahm)has been the City at the Center of the World, a metropolis-sized showcase of the greatest treasures in all Golarion.
The district of Eastgate is an almost entirely residential district with many of its people working in other parts of the city. Far from the busy parts of the city, the residents of Eastgate rely on different forms of transports to quickly get across the metropolis. Recently one of the major providers of this transportation Losuin Starout, who owns and maintains a pack of Elephants has had become nonoperational. Many of the merchants and workshops in the Inner city are concerned, their business slowing to the halt with the many late and absent workers.

The citizens of Sandpoint have started reclaiming their lives after a vicious goblin attack left so many townsfolk dead or injured. On the heels of the disastrous Swallowtail Festival, the town's sage- an old man named Brodert Quink - expressed concern for his only niece, an idealistic girl named Lucendi, who apparently joined a group of explorers to search for Thassilonian ruins near the Ravenroost hills. Worried the same goblins may have overrun the expedition, Quink has offered to pay anyone you can assure her safe return.
