Combination DM's forum?

Psion · Mar 3, 2002

If you think about it, house rules really should go with plots and whereabouts. If you have a new race or prestige class, what are you going to do? You write it up. You want your world to have a grittier tone, you likewise make a house rule.

I second that since it is exactly what I wanted to say.

I'll join the 'Plots, Whereabouts, and House Rules should be combined, but leave Rogues alone' group.

Pots and whereabouts could easily be merged (they're conceptually linked), but I'm not so sure about house rules, which I see more as a kind of extension of the rules forum.

Plots, Whereabouts and House rules would be nice merged, but keep the rogue's gallery out, it is usefull as it is now.

Another idea on the reorganisation, is to invert the order of the forum, so that people ppost on the general forum, only when they have looked at the titles of the other forums (a bit like the curent wizards forum)

As Rogue's Gallery was the main reason why I voted know, I think I'm going to note here that I agree with the peg-legged feline.

I think I agrre with the cute kitty with the hook and the peg leg.
Combine them, but let Rogue's Gallery out...

Best of Archives?

It sounds like the main problem people have with merging the Rogue's Gallery (and a few of the other fora) is the fact that even though their very light volume, they are HIGHLY minable. Some of the bits from the other fora are also of extremely high quality. (An example would be the Old One's d20 economics simulator.)

Perhaps if the moderators were a bit more aggresive on moving stuff to the Archived forum (or something similar) it would solve most of these problems? (The folks over at RPG.net already implement something very similar to this. It might be worth talking to them.)
