Why Do Admins Keep Closing My RPG Threads?

AI Thread Summary
Admins are closing RPG threads due to concerns over safety and legality, particularly regarding the construction of potentially dangerous devices like RPGs. The original poster expresses frustration, arguing that the closure of threads prevents them from receiving help on their project. Responses from other users emphasize that the site's rules prioritize safety and discourage discussions that could lead to illegal activities. The conversation reveals a misunderstanding about the nature of the project, with some initially thinking it referred to a role-playing game rather than a physical device. Ultimately, the forum maintains a strict stance against discussions that could promote unsafe practices.

ok, to the admins, quit closing my rpg threads, i don't care if you guys think i am on my own with this one, what does that have to do with closing my threads, "oh, i see this guy is asking how to figure out the physics of his rpg, well, i don't know sooo...cllooossseeedd...there, if i can't answer, no one is." really, i would really appreciate some help and just because you selected few cannot help me why should you close it rendering help to me impossible? if it is possible can you "un-block" one of my threads so i can receive help? if not ill just post another shortly and i ask that you please, please do not close it so i may receive help.

Who do you think you are talking to? This website is privately owned and operated. We set the rules, not you.

i don't care if you guys think i am on my own with this one, what does that have to do with closing my threads, "oh, i see this guy is asking how to figure out the physics of his rpg, well, i don't know sooo...cllooossseeedd...there, if i can't answer, no one is."

That is not why your thread was closed. Your thread was closed because it was deemed unwholesome by the Staff.

really, i would really appreciate some help and just because you selected few cannot help me why should you close it rendering help to me impossible? if it is possible can you "un-block" one of my threads so i can receive help?

The best advice we can give you is to abandon this foolish project. You are more likely to hurt yourself than anything else.

if not ill just post another shortly and i ask that you please, please do not close it so i may receive help.

Do that, and you'll find yourself banned from this website.
 
fine, I don't care about the explosion and my parents were not to thrilled with my plan either, regardless of the CO2 cartridge i still have a perfectly good d-class rocket engine i would like to put to use, if i do a "virtual promise" not to do anything involving an explosion, will you help me then?

Glad to hear it.

Yes, model rocketry is a-ok for Physics Forums.
 
I posted it on the general physics front page. i hope to hear some input from you.
 
wow, on the front page :wink:
 
yeah, do you see it on any other?
 
It is quite possible that the construction of an RPG by an unlicensed individual, especially a minor, is illegal and thus constitutes criminal activity!

Model rocketry, with commercially approved and legally sanctioned model rockets is one thing, but constructing a missle with an explosive warhead may breach legal boundaries.

As ZapperZ indicated in one closed thread, PF does not condone the development of an RPG.

A little late on the post there buddy, If you haven't noticed there have been many people with views identical to yours and i gave the idea up.

At first, when I read this thread, I thought he was talking about a role-playing game. Now that I know what he's talking about, I'm going to have to go with that being completely insane.
