Forum for homebrew worlds?

[rln]

I, personally, loved "Plots & Places" for the high Signal/Noise-ratio. It contained lots of useful information that inspired me for my own games. When it got merged back, I had to sift through tons of posts, and I soon stopped reading the enworld forums altogether. I only came back when I discovered Living ENWorld PbP.

I never saw plots and places

Guess I should look at other forums than General more often.

I'll tell you what I'd love to see - and this is maybe a bit more ambitious than is possible right now - is not a forum for such things, but some kind of "system" tailored for the display and presentation of homebrew worlds.

Universal Planetary Profile, anyone?

I miss Plots & Places. There's nowhere on the site where you can have that kind of discussion now - it just flies off the front page way too fast. Some kind of combo of plots and places and a homebrew forum would be cool.

Oh well. Looks like we won't get it back again...

Not as its own unique forum, at least. Folks don't seem to remember now, but threads would sit there moribund for weeks because very few people ever visited.

Just thinking out loud, a slower moving forum like Rogue's Gallery isn't necessarily a horrible place for such threads. They'll still get very little notice, though. We'll give it some thought, though I wouldn't expect an immediate change.

Like hosting wikis?

How about renaming it "Plot, Places & People"?

That might not be a bad idea.

Seconded. That would really help...
