Rules

Disclaimer These rules are copied directly from r/DnDMemes and will be adapted to Lemmy shortly.

Rule 1. Be Excellent to One Another: No trolling, harassment, personal attacks, sea-lioning, hate speech, slurs, or name-calling. Overly off-topic, political, or hateful debates will be removed, and bans may be issued based on severity. This includes both posts and comments. We reserve the right to remove content or comments that contain discrimination or distasteful content. Be kind and stay on topic.

Rule 2. No Reposts: Posts must not have been posted in !DnDMemes before. Reports with direct links to the original post will greatly expedite their removal process. Reposts from other subreddits are allowed, but once a meme is posted to !DnDMemes, it will forever after be considered a repost.

Rule 3. Post Style Guide: Posts must be strongly relevant to D&D (or other TTRPGs) and must include an attempt at humor or entertainment. Posts must be legible, understandable for a general audience and have some effort put into them, including titles. Video posts may be up to 3 minutes long, and they must be humorous in nature. Only one meme is allowed per post; posts with multiple images inside of them, such as a collage, will be removed. Posts must not rely solely on the title to relate to D&D.

Rule 4. No Advertising: Meme culture is non-profit. No links to stores, fundraising/payment sites, or comments asking for money/followers. Social media handles or website watermarks on original content are acceptable, unless these are monetized, and self promotion of one’s own social media should be limited to once per week. Accounts whose sole purpose are to push products, whether legitimately or fraudulently, will be permanently banned and their content removed.

Rule 5. No Piracy: Do not share or request pirated content. No linking, hinting at, or naming hosts of illicit non-SRD D&D content. You are allowed to copy-paste relevant rules or sections from sources, but large blocks of text may be removed.

Rule 6. No Beating a Dead Horse: Moderators may step in to issue a 3 month prohibition on certain meme topics and formats. The requirements for placing a topic on hiatus are 1. The topic has been prominent on the front page for at least 3 days or 2. The debate topic is toxic in nature. Certain historically overdone themes or formats may be retired permanently at moderator discretion/per user poll. Please see the current list.

The rules listed above are not exhaustive and decisions are made on a case-by-case basis. Such decisions can be appealed in mod mail, and the mods will do their best to come to a productive resolution. All "borderline" mod decisions are the product of informed and objective internal discussion. We welcome feedback on our rules and are always seeking to improve them for better clarity and creating a friendly, social environment here at !DnDMemes.

I’m always looking for analogies. Even if they don’t work that well lol. This one reminded me a lot of my first level digital photography class.

Most of us had artistic experience before we even walked in. We were expected to all have a good quality expensive camera from the get go.

And we took really good pictures! With time we got so much better using the same instrument we started with.

I would say that analogy is a way of playing that’s valid. It’s especially good for casual or beginner DND player.

On the other hand, our professor had a camera body that they added components to as needed. It was crazy all the cool things they had at their disposal from different places! So a vet photographer might find it a normal and necessary, perhaps, to customize their tools of the trade.

I consider this like a DND veteran or someone who wants a serious experience.

Hope that made sense.

This is actually a very fine analogy...for utility magic. But when we're talking about combat and healing magic and whatnot, I don't really think it works. Even melee weapons wear down over time. Ranged weapons require ammunition. Yes, you may be using the same gun your entire career as a soldier, but you sure as hell aren't recovering the same handful of bullets to be reused all the time. The same logic applies here - you may be using fireball to solve all your problems, but you can't use the same wand or sulfur as ammunition FOREVER. At least, not without some serious upkeep to that wand.
