''Things Mr. Welch Is Not Allowed To Do In An RPG'' is [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]] — a list of things Mr. Welch, poster boy for [[The Loonie]], has been banned from doing in [[Tabletop Games]]. It is ''long'' (2,050 items at last count), imaginative, full of [[Averted Trope|aversions]], and often really funny.
 
The original list of 25 debuted in 2005 on a Livejournal entry by TheGlen, but has since been updated every few weeks in blocks of 25. According to the author, the list contains jokes related to over fifty different roleplaying games, the majority of which regard the various editions of ''[[Dungeons and& Dragons]]''.
