(This is an informative post for those who don't know about the current trend. Someone might stumble upon that lone post in this article and think "Holy fuck! Either I'm getting very old or the frosty piss trolls have gotten amazingly sophisticated.")
Explain, with factual data, examples and clear descriptions without embellishment, the current situation of the project. Add a detailed (factual, true, sincere) description of what will happen if the problem is ignored.
Then, you need the professional maturity to know whether you are the correct person to solve the problem: If you are, present plan with the different possibilities: -- Restart the project. -- Abandon the project. -- Accept the losses and put another team to correct the project. -- etc... If you aren't, explain that there's a need for someone able to construct a plan with those different possibilities.
And, above all, make an effort to believe that the best solution could be to do nothing, to accept the bugs and the losses.
I agree about the need for a good DM. I disagree about the "rules are a guide" bit.
In my experience, the DMs who "didn't stop the game to go find obscure rules, to make it more interesting", just as those who dealt with rules doubts and questions with "It's an interpretative game" were simply too stupid to understand and follow the rules quick enough.
At some point, some people decided that anyone could manage a game where a single person had to read, understand, remember and correctly apply a hundred books of rules. And that was, and still is, false. Most people can't even understand the three page thick rules of a board game. And I'm talking about people who can actually sit at a table and read three consecutive pages.
The problem with P&P RPGs has always been that rules must be systematically dumbed down to turn monopoly grade players into potential buyers.
Slashdot Mirror
It actually is. As noted by John Stewart in his humorous relay of the previous "death of the lunar sex toy" news.
At least that would be coherent with other behaviors of that country, like three generations life imprisonment in torture camps for arbitrary reasons.
Forcing their population to use Verizon broadband might be a bit over the top, though.
Well... "meta" is "beta" with an 'M'.
In similar fashion, "Slashdot" is "fuckbeta" with an 'S', an 'l', another 's', an 'h', a dot...
That, is a lie. Go read the fucking statement again.
And you're the kind of stupid that cause those lies to spread.
I fail to see how your point is related to fucking beta in any way.
Baby? A fourdigiter? You're talking about your grand-grandson, right?
(Or maybe you're the helpful spirit of the baby's ancestor that watches over him while he sleeps!)
tl;dr: Fuck beta.

Today I have no mod points, so I'll have to vote with words.
Like an animal.
ALFA!!!......
We're, at the very least, seventy three libraries of congress away.
The police are not permitted to intentionally harrass or harm persons and property unless directly threatened.
That depends if you define "permitted" there as "sanctioned" or as "allowed".
So, to save the country the message should be "you are never, ever, going to be rich. Whatever you do.", which is the opposite of the american dream.
Coincidence!
Lasers, as most weapons, are directional. War, as most confrontations, is positional.
Thus, collateral damage does not damage the shooter.
Collateral damage to "not the shooter" hasn't stopped a weapon from being constructed ever in the history of mankind.

I wonder how desperate for attention one must be to confess a security breach just to be in some news.
They were the first members of the new super-secret Peanut Mutant Soldiers.
To avoid being called the PMS unit, they were later renamed (to avoid being called the PMS unit) to Peanut Elements Non Inmunized Soldiers.
Well, at least we have verified empirically that the "big spinning sphere shaped vehicle" works.
Because it's hard to connect the bluetooth keyboard to a coffee mug.
Recent studies by Amsterdam University and CentERdata.showed that this did not reduce the number of downloads from illegal sources.
It must be sad to make studies about the obvious.
You go have a beer with friends and they ask you "hey! What are you studying now?"
"I''ve proven that blocking thepiratebay doesn't reduce the number of illegal downloads", you say low voice while fiddling with the peanuts.
And then they look at you as if you were retarded.
Your thoughts resonate in my mind and I do suggest you to try Pathfinder.
I banged Magnys Carter the Barmaid/Whore in the ass, [...] Then you were born. I am your father.
You seem to have a fundamental misconception about certain key points on human reproduction. Or elementary anatomy. Or both.
I did fuck some of my female players.
Wait... Were you on one of those "only men allowed" RPG groups?

I did receive it, but I didn't disclose its existence to protect your identity.
Once again, in cryptography, the user was his own worst enemy.
It's probably better to work on this kind of thing in silence until it's released...
Or even beyond that point.
I released a similar tool two years ago and I'm still eagerly waiting for someone to discover it.
People who live in a country with a security force that can make you disappear and torture you to death for posting the wrong message unencrypted.
