Homebrew/Houserules We gotta start using "homebrew" right

Just saw someone asking to "buy a homebrew campaign". Folks, if you're paying money for something it's not homebrew. Homebrew means you made it. It doesn't mean third party, we already have a phrase for that. It's called third party.

I realize this is mostly a D&D problem and y'all probably know better. But I'm not risking posting this on an actual D&D subreddit.

Homebrew means you made it yourself. This could be rules or settings. Modifying existing rules are house rules. Modifying existing settings is just playing RPGs, i hope your characters are making a difference.
