If Forumites Were Stuck In An RPG is a Bay 12 roleplaying game descended from If Bay Forum Were A Mountain Hall.The game follows the adventures of Bay 12 Forumites dumped inside a vaguely roguelike RPG world, wondering how they got there and armed with only their everyday clothes, the most weaponizable object in their homes, and class abilities granted by mysterious wrist computers. Every time a door is opened, the dungeon expands, and a new, often bizarre challenge awaits within the next room.The link to the first thread is here. It dwindled out, received a reboot with two threads, before that too was abandoned in 2015.

Katanas Are Just Better: Discussed. The main blacksmith within the starting hub town specializes in crafting European sword designs, decrying the majority of "curved swords" as poorly made wall hangers, since most of the blades that end up in the hands of players are exactly that.

Anachronism Stew: The setting contains classical fantasy elements, a gas station bathroom, a hallway ripped from an FTL-capable starship, and a cratered field reminiscent of the Somme. Consistency was clearly not on the mind of whoever created this world.

Teach Me How To Fight: After fleeing from Hugo's initial transformation, failing to keep up with the group on multiple occasions and tripping on a lever, as well as nearly getting hunted down by the entity that killed Blitz, Propman decides to first strengthen himself by completing the puzzles in rooms revealed by said lever alone, and then seeks training under a swordsman of the hub after being suggested to by the local blacksmith.

Resources Management Gameplay
 If Forumites Were Stuck In An RPG (Roleplay) / int_40b1b989
comment
Resources Management Gameplay: On one hand, while guns are highly lethal to a good deal of enemies in the game, ammunition is understandably a scarce commodity, making using them at times secondary to fighting with a letter opener, or a book. Food is likewise confined to either specific rooms (one of which was flooded by late-game monsters), or hubs.

 If Forumites Were Stuck In An RPG (Roleplay) / int_549cd62d
comment
Level Grinding: Propman denies doing this in order to get ahead of the rest of the group. In reality however, doing such a thing is rather difficult, as dungeon rooms get harder the further they are from the base spawn room, while overworld encounters, which remain fairly manageable so long as you don't stray near the edges of the map, only produce low amounts of experience and are generally inefficient.
