I'll take a slightly different tack from Shalvenay: homebrew is for non-published content. Feats, classes, abilities, perks, traits, talents, or any other mechanical component not published by the ...

Why Should You Vote for Me? I'm a regular on the site. I check the site several times a day, and I've been around long enough to know all the ins & outs of how the site is supposed to work. I ...

Magician's quote from chat (emphasis mine): Is anyone here familiar with AW/DW/tremulus? Wealth didn't make any sense in the latter, so I wrote up a couple moves to earn and spend it. There's ...

Answers are for answering the question. New users should try to post actual questions and answers until they have the measly 50 rep needed to post comments. As mentioned in the linked answer, this is ...

[Skill-Points] is not a useful tag. Any question about skill points is ultimately a question about skills. We have a perfectly good skills tag; that's what we should be using. Having multiple tags ...

Unofficial Answer: We probably merit 5 moderators based on the size of the stack. Our stack gets about 18 questions/day and about 73k visits/day. Some other stacks for comparison: Super User: 217 ...

This is not an appropriate contest type for Stack Exchange. We're a Q&A site, not a forum or a "share your creations" site. As much as I enjoy creativity (both exercising my own and seeing the ...

I have a cat with food on its face, as is traditional on the Internet: Also, hurr durr I'm a dog: And because you can find anything on the Interwebs:

Let questions pass rather than time. My general rule of thumb is that no one asker should make up 50% (or more) of the ten most recent questions. In practice, this means pop out as many as 4 questions ...

I has been found! I can has moar cats? Could you guys keep it down? I'm trying to order a cheeseburger. Now I just need a magical girl... Grumpy, I am.

Personally I'd like to see a way to edit bounty text, even if it's just for 5 mins a la comments, and for the page where you enter the bounty to 1) display a preview, and 2) to inform you about the ...

I don't think we should allow this sort of question. As I described in the comment chain the dark wanderer helpfully reproduced in this question, I don't think requests to identify/locate anecdotes on ...

I think we should limit it to questions for which RPG experts are the ideal resource for answering the question. A question better answered by some other group, whether it's another StackExchange site ...

We should ask for links to verifiable 3rd-party websites. Anyone can claim to be a relevant notable figure; StackExchange has no method of verifying these users, the way Twitter does. Because we can't ...

I think this depends heavily on how the question is phrased. Questions that are purely about the plot belong on Arqade. Questions that try to understand the plot of the game from the perspective of ...

Questions about RPGs are on-topic. MYFAROG is an RPG. Therefore questions about MYFAROG and answers to those questions should be allowed so long as the content of the question or answer is not in and ...

It is possible to hide stacks so that they don't show up on your profile for other stacks or your general network profile. This link should take you to the options page for doing so; I believe hiding ...

Since nobody else feels like proposing any solutions... Let's create a new canonical question for this topic and merge both existing questions into it. For those unfamiliar with them, canonical ...

If we do keep the system-agnostic tag (something I'm coming to think may be unnecessary), then it should probably be a constraint on answers rather than on questions. It becomes a way for the asker to ...

SevenSidedDie argues that tool-recommendation is a subset of game-recommendation, and therefore banned along with that tag. While that's certainly worth discussing, it's also important to consider ...

You lose reputation from upvotes. If you were the asker of the question, all reputation changes (both positive & negative) from the question disappear. If you edited the question, those 2 points ...

Asking for a list is not OK. Link-only answers are not OK. Asking for a link to a list should be doubly triply not OK. We don't allow list questions because the list has to be maintained in order to ...

Specific Proposal Since mxy asked, not unreasonably, that we have a specific proposal that can attract some consensus in order to justify action on this issue, here one is. game-recommendation ...

Those numbers don't seem to justify revisiting the topic. Note that this is my personal opinion, not a mod consensus. While doppel is 100% correct (as would be expected) that we should be willing to ...

I think dr-who-adventures is pretty ideal. It's got Dr Who in it, so people who start typing Dr Who will see it pop up as an auto-completion, and the adventures part should be sufficient to ...

settings <-> campaign-settings

Cross-posted from a related question: The contention seems to be between these two perspectives on how to use system-agnostic: system-agnostic should be for questions that are useful without knowing ...

This is a textbook example of a designer reasons question. If we look at the revisions to the post we can see that up until the most recent revision, the question explicitly asked for designer reasons:...

Lock the policy question once the matter is mostly settled. Locking a question prevents voting on the question and its answers, which would resolve this issue. Diamond mods can simply lock policy ...

Homebrew review questions should probably be off-topic. Like system-recommendation and designer-reasons before it, homebrew review is a type of question that in theory seems like something we would ...
