Wow that looks amazing!

This is touching on the really inflexible damage system in DND. My games tend to have real hospitals/clinics for dealing with the wounded and sick in a way that can't really be expressed with the DND hit point system. This is fine for my games though, usually this kind of medical care is addressed through roleplay and outside of combat. NPCs often get wounded in a way where a healing potion or spell will only stabilize and will not make whole.

It seems weird to me that you're on the meta for another instance complaining about a decision that doesn't affect you.

There's plenty of other comments here about other awful shit going on at lemmynsfw and I don't feel like recapping that. From what I can see concerning the actual defederation, it is at worst the right choice for the wrong reasons.

The rest of the argument seems to be about the community's intent. Including "child-like" in the sidebar of a porn community because it was copy/pasted from a dictionary definition may have been a 'stumble' but it was still negligent.

I appreciate your perspective, but if you're from a different instance and don't view this instance, why are you here? Sure it would be censorship to delete your comment, but the point about that part of the post is nobody asked you. This is the meta for the instance, why are so many people from other instances chipping in? Also, your issue is whether your commentary is expected/welcome and not related to the actual issue at hand.

The community in question listed "child-like" in their sidebar until after this defederation. Gross.

Good choice and thank you.

Editing to add, I read the post addressing this on the other instance, and the message screenshots between Ada and the nsfw admins, and the nsfw admin's ignorance sure looks willful to me. They're defending an nsfw community that had "child-like" as one of the adjectives they emphasize in the sidebar until after this defederation took place. Not acceptable.

That's a super fun concept. Warhammer 40k does something similar with the emporer of mankind, who is either dead or nearly dead and on life support for thousands of years. I feel like it's less known now but in the Hitchhiker's Guide books there is a part that talks about the emporer of the galaxy who was placed in a stasis field during his dying moments. I haven't ever actually tried to look it up but always wondered if one was a nod to the other.

iirc, for awhile the first and only user flair available on r/196 was "trans rights"

That's awesome, I want one!

I really like your map! Especially that you can swap out tiles for when track switches change, that's clever and your game sounds really fun :)

I DM a couple 5e campaigns in the same game world, one which is more active lately is a spin-off where my players are all goblins and kobolds, with regular player levels on top of the monster stat blocks. They're incredibly weak so the game centers around goblin antics rather than combat or serious dungeons.

One of my regular players recently got back from being out of the country, and joined this game as a kobold warlock. Their character origin is, they unwittingly gave their name to a fae and spent a year in servitude without a name, then their new patron, Tiamat, learned of this, gave them her name for their own, and a level in warlock, so they escaped the fae and became Tiamat the Tiny!
