[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 5346052, member: 29112"] That's because it is. And the reason for that? Like I said, history. More or less. For so long, they were the 3e Rules and 3e House Rules fora. Then, suddenly one day, 1e and 2e and so on were "tacked on". But regular users of specific fora are not typically going to (equally suddenly) change their gaming preferences, or even [I]interests[/I]. And those who wouldn't ever have even visited them - why would they now suddenly look there, just in case their fields of interest had indeed been "miraculously" welded on? Quite. Since then, if anyone (e.g., S'mon) [I]does[/I] look there, on the off chance, guess what they'll see? The exact same kinds of 3e rules and house rules topics as ever before. The same old. And again, the couple of times I remember someone tentatively trying it out, the indifference was, well, [I]predictable[/I] if nothing else. I gave responding a go, partly because I felt someone ought to, and partly because I recall liking the poster(s). And hey, because it seemed interesting too (but yeah, I was primarily into 3e/d20 at the time, so not really the best candidate) - kinda "bumping" the thread, hoping to catch someone [I]else's[/I] eye in the process, because topmost threads from any forum are visible, should someone be scrolling the message boards index for whatever reason, at that precise moment. Surprise, surprise - the threads died a quick death. Said people didn't bother again - why would they? I certainly wouldn't. Er, [I]haven't[/I]. And so it goes. But then, the odds of this forum actually happening, [I]regardless[/I]. . . Hm. :( [/QUOTE]
