He also suggested that the Netherlands welcomes and tolerates “terrorism” while a “Jewish minister from Israel is unwelcome”.

Israel is a Nazi state. You’re the terrorist. Fuck off.

Unfortunately

Nah I just wanna die

Me and suicide atm

There’s nothing in the modlog about this post being removed. If it’s gone then it seems to be because the user deleted it.

You’re now just being argumentative and facetious. You’re taking what I’m saying out of context, outright ignoring certain parts and forcing it to fit your own narrative. You’re disingenuous.

Nothing can come from this and I don’t have the energy for it. Goodbye.

True. But ‘Militant Vegetarian’ isn’t exactly a term known by most people. Moreover, this is a meme on a meme community. No one is taking the title seriously.

I’d say forgive me for using it but frankly I don’t care.

👍

(but then Jews don’t answer for the acts of Israel?)

Followers of a specific faith are not the same as citizens of a country.

And honestly I’m not bothering to read the risk of this garbage either. If Russia wants to stop being accused of crimes then Russia should stop committing the crimes.

Okay, no one’s forcing you.

… This entire comment chain was literally because someone said “The DM should know all their players stats”. I’m making the argument that is nonsensical, as well as your addition. That is all. I never said that anyone was forcing me either. Kind of a weird thing to say, to be honest.

I’m saying that if the DC is beyond the ability of a particular character, tell them that they have no chance of success, even on a crit, so rolling is pointless.

And remove a chance for roleplay or funnyness from my players? Yeah, no thanks. I’ve seen plenty of hilarious moments, and been part of some myself, from people failing to do a thing because they just simply couldn’t. Besides, a character might still want to do it anyway regardless of whether or not they succeed. Then there are the people like myself who abhor that because it breaks immersion for me to have a DM say “You can’t do this, don’t even try”. I’m not missing the point. I just hate the idea of a DM blatantly telling me “You are not good enough to do this thing” when the entire concept is fantasy and being able to try that I dismissed it as an option. I should have said it leaves you with three options, the third being blatantly telling a player that they will be incapable of succeeding.

I stand by everything I said.

Go read words 8 through 10 again.

I think by “stats” they’re referring to base stats, attributes and saves and stuff.

I’m still not doing that. I trust my players to tell me what their modifiers are. They trust me to do the other things.

it’s about not having a player roll when success isn’t an option.

Which then leaves you with two options. First one is to make it so the highest DC is tied to the lowest modifier. Second one is to tailor every DC for every player. This completely defeats the purpose of skills and abilities. No one is good at everything. Some people will fail at some things that others will succeed at. If you want to have it so everyone can 100% succeed if they get the right roll every single time then you’re not using dice rolls well as a narrative mechanic. Or as a way to help bolster some PCs over others to help them shine in moments when others normally don’t get them. That line from Brennan always bugged me because it sounds like a failure of imagination when I know for a fact he has anything but.

Come have a suck

Israel is commiting a genocide. Free Palestine.

Now fuck off and lemme just post funny thing without making an insane leap about my own personal beliefs.

My mistake <3

The DM should know all of the players’ stats

I’m sorry, but unless you’re paying me then no. I’m not going to know all of your stats or your prepared spells or every single item you have. I’m not gonna memorize every feat unless they come up. I’ve got a life. Players expect a staggering amount from us DMs while giving incredibly little in return.

I’ve got to build the world, set the stage, play the people, get the items, set the economy, decide the resources, make the maps, get the tokens, run the combat, get everyone’s rolls, do the voices, check in with players, create the narrative, align with player goals, turn on ambience and so much more and you also want us to memorize every modifier for every player so we can mentally check if they can even succeed on the roll before we ask it? Just… All the time as a basic requirement? Are you high?

Also I love Brennan but what he’s saying also isn’t true for every table. I would fucking HATE playing at a table where failure isn’t an option. Sometimes you just aren’t good enough at a thing to do it. I’m sorry but that’s how it is.

Via an extremely slow lactation process

It is a meme

Depends on the theory.

I’m not very original either lol
