Rolpunk

are you one of them?

Rolpunk, a term coined by Uncle Bear,  promotes a more accepting view of different gaming philosophies. Read the Rolpunk Manifesto for a better idea of what the term signifies.

I've been espousing something similar and I'm glad someone came up with the idea of a manifesto. Now I can just point people to it instead of trying to explain everything.

Perhaps, I've been too distracted to give so much stock to an edition war. Perhaps its because I've seen so many variations of "roll vs role" I tend to ignore it. I don't act as in-your-face punk about telling people to let it be. Let people play how they want to, so long as it doesn't mess with your fun.

Am I rolpunk? Maybe philosophically, just don't expect much screaming.
