A quick message because I think it's necessary to say. Might be a thread. We'll see.

Creators in the #TTRPG hobby.

Make the games. Stop attacking customers. Stop putting real world politics or identity garbage in those games. Stop fostering division between your audience. You
are to blame for any losses you have. The most successful businesses make good products that people want to purchase. They improve those products and people will buy them again and again depending on some variables but I'll give you a couple of examples.
#TheChroniclesOfAeres is a setting and campaign for #5E and a damn good one. It's full of references to 80s fantasy and pop culture, great interesting takes, does things differently and got me into #5E where I really didn't have an interest at first. In short, worlds opened up.
Now, it's being retooled for #CastlesAndCrusades. I've purchased this book in PDF and hardcover. I love it. Would I buy it again? Damn right. Could I get around that by simply using the free 7-page conversion guide? Yep. So why buy it again? Because it's that damn good. I would
pay whatever the book price is for some time-saving. Seriously. Also @AeresChronicles has never included sections that try to tell me how to run my table. Ever. I've never seen him attack people who love his product. I think his is one of hundreds that are underrated and deserve
more attention. There are some in the #TTRPG hobby that don't get this concept and my advice is the same for wars as it is for wargaming's legitimate children.

Is there a war if no one shows up? No.

The lectures, the demands, all of it stops when we say no.

If a company
treats you like a valued player or GM, that is where you go. When a creator or company makes your treatment conditional on whether or not you have sinned against their "divine right" to rule you, that's where you don't respond with anything other than no access to your money.
My pinned tweet has a bunch of creators and companies that have made great games. There are some with asterisks, NGL, but few and far between. Feel free to talk to me or them and ask whatever you want. It's been over a year since I started that project and it has resulted in
quality games at great prices showing up into my library. If YOU want to be among those creators and companies, throw your product in there. Let's get some eyes on it. No agendas other than making great products with great support. It's time we show companies that the agendas are
not welcome at our tables. At our tables, we play games. We want gamers. Games by gamers and for gamers. That's all.

Just wanted to put this out there. Some of y'all know I'm Heathen in my faith but while I'm here I'll post my divination videos, maybe the occasional shot of the altar, maybe even talk about some books I've read. I wake up, I shit, shower, scrape the fangs, pull on my clothes and
head to work. I do my work, I come home. Might eat and play some games, do some more work on projects that I'm currently working on, fuck around on Twitter, watch some shit, hit the bed and do it all over again.

When that paycheck comes in, bills get taken care of, groceries
get bought and then, maybe buy some RPGs for me or someone else out there that I think might enjoy them.

I know there's #PaganPride events out there but you know what, I've only seen ONE in my local area in the last three years. One. I attended it. I came away having met some

Made this point last night while talking with @PaddyohCakes, when it comes to @leylinepress, they make stuff for #Mothership and they're indie. Okay, had they acted professionally, I probably would be there and their company might have even made my #MailCall thread. That being
said, they did not act professionally, nor with any ethics. LP seems to forget that, when someone is freelance, they take work wherever it comes, whenever it comes. That's it. They don't get to say "You can't do work on these properties or with these people."

Might have gotten
away with it, had they just kept it in house, left it alone and just never said a word. I might have even been ordering from them and would never have been the wiser but they had to make a show out of it. Not only was it unprofessional but they showed what absolute shit behavior

Let's teach shall we? First Lesson. No one asked for your opinion. Second lesson. No one asked for your approval. Third lesson. No one asked for your permission. Fourth. The "demographics" of which you speak don't purchase or play. The demographics that do will call our shit Image
behavior from companies when they display shit behavior. Fifth and final, the conduct from Leyline Press was unprofessional and was the best ad for LoTFP.

All they had to do was keep it in house and leave it at that...professionally. If anyone will be drowning, it's LP, not
Lamentations of The Flame Princess.

One more point, Raggi slashed the hell out of prices on his PDFs in a bold business move, capitalizing on LP's mistake and now he's getting more people to check out his wares especially after his very professional response.

That is how a

The absolute best thing about #TTRPGs is that I love to read. Love it.

I love reading stories about all these characters that get to do all these great things. I love some of the supporting characters that, were it not for them, the hero or heroine would not be able to overcome
the great odds that face them and rise to greatness and become memorable legends.

Now, here's the absolute best thing about it all. I get to be at least one of those characters for a little while and when I look back on that session or campaign I get to say, "Yeah, I did that."
I don't need someone to nerf the snakes that I may fear in real life. I don't need representation. I'm already represented. I made a character sheet. Either I'm in there as some version of myself or I'm not myself at all. I get to make that choice but whatever happens, I still
