What she does is her own decision but at least you can have a clean conscience. We need to stop cutting people in gaming so much slack for unprofessional and antisocial behavior, especially if they are making a living off of it.Roger G-Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594440701279968693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-86617445014724845392011-06-19T02:59:50.202-04:002011-06-19T02:59:50.202-04:00Well, as much of a toss-pot as thay gamer guy was,...Well, as much of a toss-pot as thay gamer guy was, at least the store did something for Free RPG day. The staff at my local FP are so infuriatingly uninterested in doing anything at all that I have simply stopped going in at all.<br /><br />Still, that is a dazzlingly closed-minded and presumptious attitude to have about any part of the hobby. I mean, fair enough if he isn't interested in old school games, that's not a crime, but to dismiss it because WotC don't sell anything similar?

Sorry to hear about your run in with Gamer Guy. One top of the week in the OSR community I can see it being a tiring experience. Here to hoping next week is a better one as well. But what is ascending & descending AC? It’s all about your defense percentage and protection rating of armor!

Has someone put something in the water? At least it sounds as though you might have picked up two sane new recruits though. Look forward to hearing how that works out.<br /><br />As I have no game shops in my area, as usual - except for free stuff online - I've once again let Free RPG Day pass me by, but I, too, have found my love of the gaming community being sorely tested this week (and I mainly lurk anyway). <br /><br />But I hope that's all behind us now and a new dawn will arrive with a new week and we can all get back to bickering about ascending or descending armour classes!Tim Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03845783872464372488noreply@blogger.com
