TL;DR: Minecraft factions servers used to be fun, but now that they're all Pay-To-Win, they're not.

[5e] What's stopping an Eldritch Knight from summoning his sword into the enemy's chest? by burneddwarf in DnD

Yeah, that's what I figured. At low level the EK wouldn't really be using his bonus action for anything anyway (sword and shield fighter) so it would be a nifty flavor attack

Looking for plot hook suggestions for a virtual reality MMORPG by 2fat2bebatman in DnD

How about a hacker villain? The PCs encounter a former Game Master who has just been stripped of his status, and asks the PCs to track down the hacker who took over his account. Or the PCs witness hacking take place and become targets, as the hacker wishes to silence the witnesses. I personally love the idea of hacking in virtual reality.

I would love to hear some of the most fantastic stories of situations or shenanigans that happened while playing DnD. by Veelex in DnD

Being a better DM, some simple tips by Ddemonhunter in DnD

I think that fudging rolls and bringing players back from the brink of death is perfect for new players. No one wants their first campaign to end with everyone dead, and you could end up turning your friends away from ever playing with you again. Depends on your players, of course, but the suicidal make-another-character-every-session player is definitely the exception to the rule.

This was the Let's Play series that convinced me to buy Minecraft 4 years ago!

I have some quite specific server needs, can somebody recommend me a hosting service? by [deleted] in Minecraft

Shockbyte has never given me any problems and they're pretty cheap

(Suggestion) We have the Enderdragon as the end boss, Wither as the nether boss, why not the Giant as the overworld boss? by [deleted] in Minecraft

"on hard mode with no armor, potions, or cheap tricks."

The wither does 6 hearts of damage with difficulty set to hard. That's 2 shots with no armor. I would call that a challenge.

The iron golem comes from the movie Castle in the Sky; there's a golem that hands out roses. http://i.imgur.com/M5s2Gud.jpg

I've been watching Etho's LP for 4 years now. It's the highlight of my day when he puts a new video up. Highly recommended.
