[QUOTE="Tyrian_Spellstealer, post: 3520229, member: 36470"] Back when ISRP moved off the wizards of the coast website and onto unlikely heroes just before coming here to glorious enworld, the idea of more rooms and settings was thrown around. In the end, a Faerun setting was decided on through vote of users. A sigil setting also got put up due to popular support for the idea, however for a very long time both the new settings rarely got used. Now, I constantly see all the settings used rather frequently. To be fair, the CRT still generates most of the traffic, but in the last six months the use of the Bazaar, the Rotunda and TMP has increased tenfold. Maybe it’s only a small handful of people using it at a time, but when I log on, there’s almost always someone using them. Back when we were voting on settings, it was widely viewed (and a view I supported at the time) that an Eberron room wouldn’t be used because of lack of popularity. At the time, I agreed with the idea, the setting was still relatively new, and there wasn’t a lot of source material out there. Now I see more and more Eberron based characters popping up in the other settings. Not just a handful, but a large amount. Even characters that aren’t from Eberron seem to have some Eberron ties. On top of this, I’ve been asking some peers, and there seems to be more and more support of the idea of an Eberron setting. Of course, this could just be my imagination. However, is it possible that after the 18 odd months (rough guess there) since the decision not to have an Eberron setting was made that its popularity as a setting has increased? With the other rooms getting more and more use now as well, I find it rather silly that we have a setting such as sigil (which I will always have a small place in my heart for) which is practically discontinued, and not a setting such as Eberron which is quickly becoming one of the (arguably) most popular dnd settings out there. To be fair, we already have three fantasy settings. We have Magi who work hard (and great) to keep these settings running, and it might end up being a lot of work to draw up a new one, and I personally wouldn’t want to put any more strain on their hard working asses then I have to. However, with the increased popularity of the setting, and the unique style Eberron has I think it would be a nice something to add with a bit of effort and community support. So, ideas… Yes? No? I’m just throwing the idea out at the moment to see if it’s at all possible, but as mentioned before, with an apparent increase in the other settings, what could possibly be lost by adding a new one? Its clear now more then ever that more settings are getting used, and that there is more community support for new projects, and I thought I’d just bring up the Eberron topic again. [/QUOTE]
