Wow, the link to this thread is really the only link anyone needs.
And I'm honored, one of my threads is in there (about musical references). Couple of posts I never responded to, after reading it again. Tempted to pull it out of retirement.

Excellent! There's nothing wrong with reviving a thread that is pertinent to a situation unless you are hoping for completely fresh input on a subject.

Holy smokes this thread is a treasure trove of good stuff. I just spent more than an hour rumaging through threads I never saw the first time around.

Thanks.

It's amazing how much interesting reading is lurking in the depths of EN World. I'm hoping some of the original thread starters pop back and post how they resolved various situations and problems they may have had. And, of course, I hope everyone bookmarks the big DMing Advice thread for future reading enjoyment...

Looking for suggested thread additions.

I try to include threads that are at least ten posts long but make exceptions for those that are of a fairly unique or unusual nature.

I avoid threads that are simply plug fests for one or more publisher since those tend to be overly dominated by the skewed opinions of fanboys.

Please add your suggestions so I can update the links.

Thanks!

Any ideas on how we can make the list more managable? The categories are too long to be effective....I know that my vision blurs about 1/3 of the way down the list.

PS - It is still book marked and used I don't know how long it took you too assemble but will assume that re-indexing somehow would be a chore that would take some real time.

Glance over the first section and give me five names for good subcategories, even if some don't fit. Maybe the next person that comes along can quote the first section post and begin dividing them up into your suggested subcategories?

Well, ones that jump out at me include Play Style/DMing Style, Monsters & Monster Tactics (BADD as major subcategory), Worldbuilding/Dungeoncraft (Adventure Building as a subcategory?), House Rules, Character Design/Tweaking, Group Dynamics (with Problem Players as a major subgroup), Fluffy Details (for such threads as Garments for a young nobleman?, though this might fit more under Worldbuilding), Rules, Miscellaneous/Other/Not Sure Where This Thread Goes...

I'm tapped out. That was a lot more than five subcategories. If these ideas are decent, I can start sorting.

Good stuff, masque.

Anyone else want to pick up the ball and run a bit further with it?

Acid_Crash, I doubt they'll sticky it. You should probably just bookmark it in a good place (as should others, too!)

Lots of new blood on ENworld nowadays, and it's been almost a year since the last post in here. So, have a little bumpage.
