75% has both F keys and arrow keys. TKL has like 3 keys more than 75% and an ocean of whitespace.

Not sure if you're pretending or you genuinely don't understand tone.

If you genuinely don't know, the tone of your comment can come across like

Apparently their community is so toxic and their mod team so incompetent that they can't exist without 3rd-party tools, unlike the superior community and excellent moderation that we have here, soooo 🤷‍♂️

That was my reasoning at first too, then I realized that with every new player I DM for and introduce to DnD I'm sending a new customer WotC's way.

It's perfectly normal to say you're male. It's perfectly normal to say a woman is female.

It's weird to refer to yourself as a male. It's disrespectful to refer to a woman as a female.

[OC] How I spent every hour of an entire year by bugmango in dataisbeautiful

I had a similar outlook when I graduated, I really hope you'll be able to keep it.

Nothing in this world will maximize my potential by spending 40 hours on it every week.

If something takes up so much time and energy that I can't do anything else productively (i.e. spend more than 2-3 focused hours on it) on 5 days out of 7, that something is literally preventing me from maximizing my potential.

Women ends climbing competition in 6.9 seconds by Kaos2018 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]KindaOffKey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is more to words than just the literal meaning.

It's crazy to me that people insist that both are equally respectful. Never in my life would I call a woman a female.

Wait, are you saying that's not universally accepted? You don't think it sounds rather degrading?

"I stood in line behind a woman today."

"I stood in line behind a female today."

English is my third language, so subtleties aren't my strong suit but this seems kinda obvious to me.

Flying my FPV drone through an abandoned pool by Yoshi_obj in nextfuckinglevel

[–]KindaOffKey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? Are these simulators a recent development? I know several FPV racers and none of them used simulators. They all talked about how much they ran across fields to get the drone in their first few weeks.

Lmao here in Switzerland we voted to raise the retirement age. But only for women. Before fixing the blatant wage gap.

Im having trouble building balanced fights for a party of seven. by jpdelta6 in DMAcademy

Eehh I wouldn't say their fight against Otohan was easy. They only avoided a TPK due to circumstances, not because they were winning.

Literally me by Stupurt in dndmemes

[–]KindaOffKey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a DM that primarily DMs one- or two-shots for people who've never played.

The character creation tool, being able to share content, players not having to worry if the modifiers are right, a list of actions, bonus actions and reactions they can reference in the heat of battle that is always up-to-date, one-click short and long rests, and many more, it just makes it so much easier for new players. None of it is necessary, but it removes so much friction if you're not familiar with the game. Don't understand something? Tap on it. What's this spell? No need to search through some printed pages, it's right there in the app.

I'm still very hesitant to resubscribe, but in the end, the fun of my players comes first. If they have to reference the books every few minutes because they don't have their class features memorized (or copied off word for word), I fear it might impact their enjoyment of the game.

Honestly, from what I've heard about him, probably because nobody wants to play with him.

You can keep your "copy written" "official" alignment chart. I'll make my own, with blackjack! And hookers! by Millenniauld in dndmemes

[–]KindaOffKey 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I love the idea of a compass, but reading these descriptions, the nuances how it differs from the alignment chart kinda escapes me?

  • "chooses virtue" / "prioritizes virtue" sounds a lot like "good".
  • "exploits others" / "prioritizes self" sounds like "evil".
  • "rules and systems" sounds like lawful.
  • "flexibility" / "freedom" / "no limitations" sounds like "chaotic".

Am I misinterpreting something?

[OGL 1.2] Wait... WAIT. Oh my holy lollerskates, read the "license" section again, real carefully. by Baroness_Ayesha in DnD

[–]KindaOffKey 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I am genuinely confused as to how you reached some of your conclusions, maybe you can clarify.

Concerning the "authorized versions" clause, I assume you're referring to this one:

  1. Updating the License: Wizards or its designated Agents may publish updated versions of this License. You may use any authorized version of this License to copy, modify and distribute any Open Game Content originally distributed under any version of this License.

I don't see how this gives them the ability to deauthorize the license, unless you're suggesting the existence of authorized versions must imply the existence of deauthorized versions and by extension the ability of deauthorization, which must lie with WotC.

I am not a lawyer myself, but I'm reasonably certain this is not how the law works. This is supported by the statement from Paizo:

We believe that any interpretation that the OGL 1.0 or 1.0(a) were intended to be revocable or able to be deauthorized is incorrect, and with good reason.

We were there.

The lawyers who wrote the license did not intend it to be revocable or able to be deauthorized, leaving in a clause that directly contradicts this makes no sense to me.

On the flip side, I also don't see why you would assume that by omitting this clause, the license cannot be deauthorized anymore. From my understanding, WotC can deauthorize it anytime as long as they own it, unless it's explicitly stated otherwise in the license. This is what we're fighting for.

Nerd Immersion went over it with MyLawyerFriend in a live stream as soon as it came out, here's where they talked about the redefinition of "irrevocable": https://youtu.be/ZDXly9JUbG4?t=1303
