Greyhawk forum?

[grodog]

Morrus,

We have a lot of folks who talk about Greyhawk in the General RPG forum. Has anyone asked about building a Greyhawk-specific forum? It would be nice to be able to scroll through a forum like that for all of the Greyhawk discussion

I don't know if you've already talked about this idea before, or if you've thought about having setting-specific forums for the FR, DarkSun, Scarred Lands, etc., etc., too.

In any event, what do you think of the idea: is it worthwhile, or does it open up too many possible additional forums to manage (one per world)?

Personally, I think that General RPG Discussion or Whereabouts can hold these discussions. A forum for every setting would just be too much.
It could be done, though... all the setting forums could be sub-forums of Whereabouts, or something like that.

Hmm... If we moved all the world discussions to their own forum, moved all the trolls to their own forum, started up a forum just for polls we wouldn't have anything to discuss in General but politics and religion... that should make people happy

What fun

Hey, it was just a thought---I never said it was a brilliant thought or anything

It's not a bad thought, either.

So what's the RFC process for ENWorld? We post in Meta, and wait to see what the moderators collectively decide, or if the topic generates much commentary, or do we hold a poll or what?

Believe it or not, I don't support a crusade for a GH specific forum. We already have a place for that: Canonfire/Greytalk. The cool thing about ENWorld General and Whereabouts forums is getting input from a broader group than just the GH diehards. My goal with posting some of my homebrew GH stuff in Whereabouts is to get some feedback and share ideas with other homebrew people who aren't tied to GH canon.

Seeing how nasty some of the GH threads in the General forum get, I'm afraid a GH forum would devolve into a huge flamewar pretty quick.
