Houses? It's the Gazebos that you really need to keep an eye on.

A pointed reaction is fine, so long as the creator isn't accused of some silly, sinister-sounding motive. Just because you (general) can't imagine any other reason for the trend doesn't make it true.

What irks me is that the phrase is so loaded. Saying "Paizo hates X" or even asking "Does Paizo hate X?" is similar to media outlet headlines that use the exact same annoying tactic; frex, reporting "Does the President hate Christmas?" when the White House chooses a card that says "Happy Holidays."

I second this. I think everything they do is pretty good and what I don't like I change in my game. I don't play pathfinder Society but I get that the rules need to be different. theres no reason to have all the thread hate.

Exactly! I get that some people like to play by the exact rules, and that some people must play by the exact rules, ie PFS, but that's no reason to claim that Paizo "hates" something just because they "nerf" something you like.

I like to believe that every rule change that Paizo enacts is done with balance and fun in mind, not because of some arbitrary dislike of this class or that feat. Is this belief 100% true? Likely not, but it's close enough that I see no reason to go off the rails when something changes for what I may perceive as the worse.

Wasn't Manimal a TV show in the 80's? I remember liking that show.

Good memory! Here's the Wikipedia entry for anyone interested: Manimal.

When you start posting questions like these in obviously the incorrect fora, it starts to look like you're trying to get around other people's filters.

Given that there are dozens of other threads with the same message and tone...

...one begins to suspect flamebait.

Hey gaiz!
While doing research for this related thread, I and a friend of mine made a flowchart for perceiving traps, detect magic included.
Tell me what you think!

Scott Betts is my forum hero. He is more often a voice of rational thought and inquiry than just about anyone else here. He doesn't play Devil's Advocate so much as post facts and fight irrational hyperbole, exaggeration, and misinformation.

Wait, this item is not cursed? With that name and those negatives?

The JJ response got FAQ'd, with a further staff response of "no response required." That seems pretty official. I'd go with JJ on this one.

Trust me, there are those of us in the U.S. and U.K. that scream at the TV whenever anti-vaxxers open their mouths. And shake our heads in shame when yet another news story of yet another outbreak hits the news circuit.

No, but their appearance is certainly memorable.

I've always liked 1d8+8 (although I most prefer PB). Nothing less than a 9, but nothing more than a 16 (before racials).
What does 1d8+8 give us Murph?

Here's what gets me about the trailer:

** spoiler omitted **
Repeated testing has shown that audiences respond better to trailers that give away major plot elements, despite the fact that audiences SAY they don't like. When asked to rate trailers, plot reveals score higher.

I didn't know that, and now my soul has been crushed.

This thread is bad and the OP should feel bad.

Off hand is a label applied ONLY to a hand making a secondary attack that isn't part of your iterative chain. So, the hand you strike with first is always your "on" hand.

If someone promotes "negging," I swear I will reach through the intertubes and slap them silly.

Elfen Lied is one I just finished; it was amazing, if incredibly dark.
