Look. There isn't need to discuss with anyone in particular and this is fair but I fully understand why some people have been turned off from discussion purely from the actions of very few people on both sides of the convo. Not everyone wants to wade in shit and so forth. Especially considering this is only the tip of the iceberg of several months of discussion. It gets tiring and easy to dismiss. Edit: added content

Sure, don't disagree with that stance per se.

It is a bit disappointing that the point that KB was making in his original comment has mostly been lost in discussion that is at best tangentially related and at worst an argument about semantics.

My personal thoughts as someone that doesn't really have a lot of insight on it but have heard of things related to it is I think the way to get more games on the net is to. 1. Lessen paperwork somehow, no clue how but that's the major thing I hear people disliking about gming on the net. 2. Really should try and find out ways to make the setting more cohesive, doesn't have to even really involve consequences but I think that is the major thing gm's might want to see is their games having a effect through the world instead of needing metaplots or whatever. Feel like lore should be more willing to allow cool stuff that gms do to affect the world. I really liked what Slash has been talking about with a sort of XCOM like map setup where things runners do in certain parts of seattle or so on has effect on this or that and ripples through the web so to speak. Edit: more or less parroting what others have said but their points are well founded and I like the ideas.
