A Brief Introduction to this Page's Purpose

Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry. This place is NOT intended to be a medium of discussion about Mr. Whitman, pro or con, but instead be a "jumping off" point to enable the reader to make their own informed decision about Mr. Whitman's history and business character. (Editor's Note: After years of this documentation, we simply cannot be anything BUT "con" when it comes to Mr. Whitman)

Whenever possible, links to the original source material will be provided, but in many cases that information may have been deleted or secured behind restricted-access (like a private Facebook page) accounts.

Anything posted here is the opinion of the retrospective author and any content shown is to be considered "fair use" and posted for educational purposes only.

Note to authors: Please begin each post with the original date of the event being documented in the format of YYYY.MM.DD (i.e. If the event being recorded happened on March 15th, 2015 and today's date was August 8th, 2018 the beginning of the post's title would be 2015.03.15 and not 2018.08.08) so readers can use the Chronology page to find specific information. Please use appropriate tags when possible for the same reason.

Note to contributors: If you have some valid data to send, screenshots, links to other Ken Whitman stories, etc., please feel free to send a gmail to notanotherdimeblog. We'll look into it and post if appropriate.

2026.02.13 Well, this is Awkward: The Whitman Method

2026.02.13 Well, this is Awkward: The Whitman Method
So we were checking out Ken "Whit" Whitman's Facebook (at least one of the current ones, unsure of how many pages he has) today, and.... as expected, a lot of self-promotion, mostly about his connection with TSR. Presumably to help promote his Legends of TSR website/services, but not the subject of this particular entry.

Kenny has always been about self-promotion and his actions in the past seem to indicate he's more of the "there's no such thing as bad publicity" mind-set. Regardless...it is what it is.

One of his posts pushed a new endeavor he's calling The Whitman Method, where he's giving Game Master advice as an offer to teach you the 12 Steps to Becoming a Great Game Master.  So far....not seeing an angle here. No "pay to learn" thing going on, no subscription......really nothing.

The Whitman Method

Pretty sure he's using some AI to increase production values as he has short graphical videos with a good female voice narration that actually augment the content. The grammar and spelling far better than Ken's norm, so we're guessing there is some help there as well. We did run things through an AI ourself to see if it could detect if this was AI generated content and this was the result:

85–90% human-written

10–15% human + AI polish

~0–5% pure AI

Now it wasn't looking at or listening to the videos, but that content was augmentation as opposed to duplicating the written posts, and this is Facebook here, nobody is realistically spending that much time and effort hand-cranking out videos for these posts.

We haven't read through all of the posts yet, but there is actually some good stuff there, and probably worth your time. I know, kind of surprised us as well, but the top of our pages here do state: "Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry." Consider this documented.

TL;DR

Ken "Whit" Whitman has a new Facebook page giving out GM advice that is worth a read.
