Converted from Phorums BB System

I should mention that there is a forum for the discussion of the True20 system (used by Blue Rose) by itself, for those who are interested. Green Ronin just recently created this forum.

The reason they created this forum is because the users and staff people of the Blue Rose forum got tired of people dropping in to state how much they liked the rules of the game, then going on to bash the setting to the point of trolling and beyond. Many were quite obnoxious, stating their opinions in the most cloying and abrasive manner possible, or just through general smart-assed-ness. In the end, it was easier on everyone to just separate them from the Blue Rose forum by giving them another place to congregate. This is not to suggest that the True20 forum is occupied only by obnoxious people (which it isn't, thankfully), or even that it was founded solely for the above purpose, but to state that it was founded partially for everyone's peace of mind.

Most of us on the forum would have been fine with their opinions if they hadn't been so disgustingly rude about them. The opening post of this thread reminds me of many of these trollish posters.

To all posters out there: By taking the troll tack instead of stating your opinions in a more reasonable way, you only hurt yourself. I know very few people who are willing to listen for long to someone who continually berates and insults them and/or the things they like. This has been the root of more than one flame war that could easily have been avoided.
