Memories.* +[1]Dungeonmaster Mark thanks for uploading this. I
   remember this special.* I didn't believe it even then.* Still, I
   only watched the game and didn't play as much as friends begged
   me because I found the stories they unfolded and their group
   dynamics far more interesting than the game itself. I did get be
   a beta tester for Neverwinter Nights in 1989-1990 though.*
   THAT's when I dove in.* Still never fully immersed myself.* but
   wow - thanks for the memories here.* Same stuff has been
   happening with Creepypasta.* Silly adults, always blaming
   fantasy for their kids being stupid or having mental problems.
   Ironically, by highlighting the "oooh scary danger" of it, they
   BOOSTED sales of D&D.* negative or positive publicity is still
   publicity... and the "wow, this game must be awesome if ppl
   killed themselves over it" must definitely be a factor in some
   buying decisions. [and of course, as they play, they realized,
   "Oh... there's nothing dangerous about this game at all - it's
   just awesome"* I'm a "fan of the fandom" as I always say.* My
   mother saw the bullshit in this too.* In her day?* Comic books
   were Evil.* She knew they weren't.* Same reasoning.
