Confess your Veeky Forums related sins

Confess your Veeky Forums related sins.

I've played only one pen and paper game in my whole life. Not one campaign, one game. I hang out on Veeky Forums because I do a lot of writing and I love the sheer array of different topics, ideas and stories you can find here. I don't go to Veeky Forums because I don't like the people who post there.

...
Are you me?

Everytime I play a game, I put effort in it and people like me at first.

However, if I really care about a game I have a tendency to say things, many things. Some of these things are very stupid. So I end up stepping on the collective toes of my groups more often than not.

Also, I have a slightly thin skin and sometimes I misunderstand what people mean.

In short: drama occurs OoC, which I don't think is fatal... but it's still annoying as shit. And I'm really sorry for it. I am trying really hard to say good things and avoid complaining and saying stupid shit. But it's a work in progress.

White dragonborn are superior than all other dragonborn. I like to grab and toss my enemy around even if it doesn't no damage.

Don't give up. I've followed 40k for 10 years and been lurking here for about 6. Last year I said fuck it bought myself a few starter sets and found a shop and started playing.

It's alright, user. This always happens with me too. It's not an easy thing to overcome.

I gave one of my players a sex slave/concubine, because muh magical realm. I've thought I'm better than you guys, turns out I'm really aren't.
The party loves her.

I don't like the Dragonlance books that much, haven't even finished Chronicles yet

I don't like warhammer 40k that much and think that most of fantasy's setting is stupid.

I think Malekith becoming the true phoenix king in endtimes was a cool idea.

I've literally never played any sort of Veeky Forums game, unless we're counting cards and chess.

The only tabletop game I actually played to any great extent was actually the computer version - megamek

I've hardly played any real tabletop games

>I don't go to Veeky Forums because I don't like the people who post there.
Veeky Forums's actually okay
I went there expecting antifa and found out they just shitpost about some peterson guy a lot while yelling at everyone to start with the greeks

Read Draconian Measures or anything involving Kang's Regiment.

The Dragonlance short stories are usually better than the full-length novels.

I zealously hate on 40k because I find imperium of man to be a shitty faction with poor art and batshit retarded lore (why does almost everyone act like retarded manchildren?!)

I like every other faction tho.

Pathfinder is my favorite system, and I don't like Warhammer 40k.

I hate D&D...

... except 4th edition, which I think is the most underrated and revolutionary RPG ever made.

you are forgiven

Not a sin. 40k is overrated garbage with shitty lore and disgusting art.

I do Catan

I dont prime my models

...

>Underated
Yes, indeed.

>Revolutionary
Yes, I agree.

>most revolutionary RPG ever made
Not really. It took a bunch of ideas that were much older than it and refinded them to perfection, but it didn't really invent the tactical combat RPG.
Compared to 3.5 (which is revolutionary in it's own right due to having the general structure many games use to this day[jsut not sure if it was the first, just the first prominent one]), it was quite revolutionaryin its attempt to kill many sacred cows.

I still think that 8th Fantasy is better than 40k

I'm starting to get bored with my own game. I'm not sure if it's because I'm just writing significantly more boring stuff than usual or if my players are just giving me really boring stuff to work with or if it's a combination of the two, but I'm beginning to notice with increasing rapidity that our campaign will trail off into the uninteresting every couple of sessions. I end up not being invested in the game and run really mediocre sessions that leave a sour taste in my mouth by the time they're done. My players don't even seem to notice.

I don't play RPGs or tabletop. I frame ideas I have for my writing as RPG settings or races or whatnot and post them in threads to garner feedback.

I post about Magic even though I haven't played competitively since Mirrodin and have nothing nice to say about any set since Lorwyn.

I participate in 40k "your dudes" threads even though I don't actually have any models, just an unnecessary amount of fluff made for a theoretical army I can't afford.

I regard "monstergirls" and their fans as furries

I really like PvP...

Same. The people on here always have fun ideas and the discussions are (usually) great. I've got no one to play pnp with, I collect rulebooks and write stories.

>I don't play RPGs or tabletop.
What a massive faggot

>I participate in 40k "your dudes" threads even though I don't actually have any models

I'm also guilty of this.

That's okay, Dragonlance is kinda shit.

Do you tell that to all the groups you're a part of?

The main reason why I'm a GM is because I want to show my worldbuilding, several groups complained about my excessive loredumping and boring, overcomplicated settings but their enjoyment in my games is secondary at best to me.

I'm a DM (5e) but I don't know loads of basic stuff, like why Thief's Use Magic Item is valuable (I just let anyone use anything that isn't specifically class restricted or a spell scroll) or fall damage rules.

I make up my own items instead, and I've made a number of spells which are way overpowered because I like creating things but don't have the patience to go through slowly balancing everything, so I end up nerfing them later on. At least two of them have turned out to be spells that already existed that I just didn't know about, except way more powerful for a lower spell slot.

I've occasionally taken away player agency to heighten plot points and keep it moving, including ripping someone's eye out without them getting a roll although they were incredibly disorientated and it was a god in their home plane which did it.

I had a long standing one on one game with a scaly from steam. He would buy me games on steam in return for me letting him play a fat blue dragon with a vore fetish in a homebrew setting. I cut him loose when he gifted me a copy of bad rats as an april foola joke by having him swallow a paladin who cut his head off from within. He cried a lot about me hurting his OC, and when he asked if this was some kind of bad joke i said Nope and removed him from my contacts. THANKS FOR THE GAMES, IJZER!

>However, if I really care about a game I have a tendency to say things, many things. Some of these things are very stupid. So I end up stepping on the collective toes of my groups more often than not.

You're just getting giddy and overexcited. Try to reign it in, or apologize for your over zealousness with your group and explain that, because you're enjoying it so much, that's why you are acting strangely.

Not a single thing wrong with this.

Both very true.

You've been memed. If you actually look at how oldschool D&D was designed around specific core mechanics, it works really well in all honesty.

>I frame ideas I have for my writing as RPG settings or races or whatnot and post them in threads to garner feedback.
Everyone does this I'm pretty sure, I know I do.

>I regard "monstergirls" and their fans as furries
You are correct, but you have to also realize that there is nothing wrong with being furry.

>You are correct, but you have to also realize that there is nothing wrong with being furry.
The fetish in itself is fine, the problem is all the autistic communauties based around it.
You would have furries images everywhere on Veeky Forums and /d/ would be entirely furry if that wasn't for furries who can't stay in the closet being driven off.

I'm an honest to god oldfag. Every so often, I get a request from a player or a group of them to run an "old school" style adventure, either in a modern system or a retro clone. I go out of my way to make it as arbitrary and as miserable experience as possible; so they can fully appreciate the late 80s-early 90s experience. I know that's not what they want, and I easily can do better, but there's a LOT of shit from that period and I have no idea why people idolize it so.

>but there's a LOT of shit from that period
Like what?..

>inb4 I don't play /tg I'm a friendless loser and this is the only board where I can just right fantasy fiction and people think I'm talking about a game
Oops too late

You were way too late to the punch with this one, user.

>hur hur you do thing i don't like so you must be a friendless looosser
Grow up.

Now we know were NATURAL 20 AND SOME BULLSHIT HAPPENED meme comes form.

The poor descriptions of mechanics (This monster is immune to non-magic weaponry, or extraordinary weapons like a boulder thrown from a giant. Enjoy the endless arguments that will result); the fascination with hex crawls, that you can go from meaningless area A to meaningless area B, with only a 5% chance of your random roll generating something that your party has no chance to survive against, even if you take to immediate flight or hiding; the cheesy deathtrap puzzles where the intended solution is to read the referee's mind to come up with whatever arbitrary steps you need to get past the ceiling smasher; the "I don't give a shit" school of worldbuilding, where you have crazy, impossible differences in things like tech disparity or culture right next door to each other, or how nobody's economy seems to recognize the fact that monsters are apparently everywhere.

>you do thing i don't like
But that's exactly the problem he complains about. You don't do the thing, you just fantasise about doing something and them spew your bullshit here.

When I was fifteen I used a completely unpainted Tau army. I also didn't thin my paints so the few models that did have paint had it caked on.

Good thing that it's not my point.

>You are correct, but you have to also realize that there is nothing wrong with being furry.
That is unfortunately objectively false, since animal abuse is common among furries. It's not for nothing they're known as dogfuckers.

I regularly purge my table because I found out the longer I keep the same set of players around the less interesting in playing and more interested in socialising.

Also I ask people if they've ever played WoD, if they say yes I immediately disinvite them.

I've said before in these threads that I keep trying to play a kitsune but then the games die for completely unrelated reasons.
Ended up in a game that, due to a bunch of plot bullshit, my character ended up as a gumiho. GM didn't even know about my knowing of said things, thought he was pulling a surprise.
What the hell.

I've never played a pen and paper game. I've never had the opportunity to do so.
My collage has a "traditional games" club that meets mondays and fridays but I've been hesitant to go because of how liberal my collage can be.
Also it starts like 4 hours after my last class of Friday, and 6 on mondays and.

Why is that?

I've never played and know next to nothing about WoD but an acquaintance has WoD tattoos of all things.

Muh goths.

Certain fans of the WoD franchise are touched in the head. OP wants to avoid those by discarding anyone who might have had something to do with WoD.

They're the most pretentious faggots in existence, they express everything in paragraphs worth of speech. It doesn't help most of them still haven't left the 90's.

I slip my fetish into all my games, and my players never catch on.
dragon belly rubs

hmm ok.

Yea I'd say my friend probably fits the bill.

Apparently my lgs had to ban students playing Monsterhearts because it often got so explicit and uncomfortable for other customers they stopped coming to the store.

>Are you now, or have you ever been, in a World of Darkness Game?

You're sick in the head user

I think I'm better than the people i run games for (mainly d&d 5e) because I get more invested in the game than they do. Which is probably 50% reasonable and 50% me having a superiority complex

It could be worse. I could tell you how i like to touch tail

I like joking around a lot. I haven't yet noticed that other players aren't enjoying it but I still sometimes get a bit self-conscious about breaking immersion and going on tangents.
Like, people laugh and respond with their own jokes but I'm still afraid that I am ruining the game somehow or that I am being insufferable.

I beg the GM for additional penalties to my characters, almost regardless of system. I want to play someone less capable than the rest of the party so nobody depends on me to do anything right, in character. It takes a lot of pressure off of me to actually perform tactically, which I'm not all that good at.

I hate being stuck as forver DM. Sometimes I will cancel sessions for no reason. I just want to play games again so I can feel like DMing again.

I've never finished a campaign.

I'm also guilty of posting my writing ideas as settings. Though one time it was real.

I have players in my RP circles that I actively dislike.
This shouldn't be a problem but I feel really bad because they are what they are because they have honest to goodness mental issues that are outside of their control.

I havent read Lord of the Rings or the Silmarillion.

>hate being foreverDM
>Someone else DMs
>Hate how badly they fuck it up.

The super serious in character stuff isn't as common as Veeky Forums probably makes it seem. All my sessions have had a lot of out of character shit talking and joking no matter which group I was playing with at the time. Even one on one sessions have joking around (and typically not from me).

If you're that worried about it you could always raise it with your group and see how they feel about it but if they're joking along with you then you're probably fine.

I only ever played DnD once. As a DM. No one else in the group ever played before. It surprisingly lasted for a good 6 sessions.

I know at least a dozen self-identified firries. I also know exactly 0 animal molesters.

Under my edgy facade, I'm a good person.

Ain't got none, I'm a beloved player and GM.

I have barely played any tabletop games at all. I have spent massively more amounts time posting about them and reading about them, than actually playing them.

Also I endlessly talk shit about 3.5 even tho I actually kinda like it.

Dude they're obnoxious as fuck.
Don't ever try to discuss something that you liked there. Especially if it's fiction, like there's anything wrong with that.

I've never read the Lord of the Rings.

They absolutely do notice, they're just afraid you might molest them if they complain

How personally do you know them, user? They're obviously not going to be open with you about their dogfucking. As bad as furries are at keeping their fetish in their pants, I doubt if they're dumb enough to incriminate themselves so easily.

The only tabletop game I truly enjoy playing is Dungeon Fighter

>friendless losers
The problem is less the "friendless-ness" and more that I know only one person who's into warhammer in my area (and who turned into a likeable chad so I doibt he still plays), and zero people who like rpgs apart from vidya rpgs. Europe seems to be more about simple board and card games.

>
>Lord of the Rings
There's nothing wrong with that, and I say it as a die hard Tolkien fan. Tolkien wrote the fantasy equivalent of those really pretentious up their own ass books that a lit professor makes you read for an advanced class. Brilliant, no doubt about it, but not the most accessible, and the sort of book that you're expected to pay damn close attention to as you read it, not just lightly brisk through it curled up near a fire on a cold night.

Most Tolkien "fans" are obnoxious retards, and the world would have been a better place if they had never picked up the books.

I judge all of tabletop gaming by Veeky Forums
I'm going to try and play anons trigger class or race. Because I'm attracted to diffrence
I'm not the best roleplayer and will get upset if told I'm not "good enough" to un-rustle a gm
I'll erp in a text game, No fucks given

I have lustful thoughts about Cestree.

I haven’t broken my streak of playing only chaotic characters in about 7 years. My group likes all of my characters, but we’re starting to notice that not enough of the party is acting as a pillar of morality and not being very heroic is something that is taking its toll. I’m rolling up an LG or NG type character when we finally get to the next campaign.

perhaps if you dropped a percentage and a few reasonable sources for it people might be more willing to accept that point. As it stands, your original statement is kinda like saying that only clever people watch rick and morty

What if someone has played WoD but said they didn't like it?

To be fair, it takes a very high IQ to fuck dogs.

>I like taushits but not imperials
That requires a summary execution

...

I was just about type mine out when I read the OP and realized I'm basically in the exact same spot.

Basically I just hang out in worldbuilding threads and the like to throw ideas around or read up on other people's concepts, as I have no other real outlet for my own ideas.

Neither of those are sins.

This so true it hurts.

>Also I ask people if they've ever played WoD, if they say yes I immediately disinvite them.
So because I played it in high school well over a decade ago, I'd be disinvited from your game? You're kind of an asshole.

And this is why I hate 40k. Not just because the Imperium is made up of retarded manchildren, but because the fanbase is made up of retarded manchildren who actually like it.

The creepiest part out of everything in this picture is the fact that they look related.

Quite the assertion you've got there. Would you like to provide some sauce for that sandwich?

You didn't figure that one out from the 'I regularly kick people out because they get more interested in being friends the longer they hang out with people' bit?

I actually like Pathfinder
Granted, I know objectively it's a terrible system. But I still love it all the same

>I've never finished a campaign.
I have a sneaking suspicion that that's very common.
