[QUOTE="shadzar, post: 5436580, member: 6667746"] You said that you had to use forums to schedule a game, I said once you find a group to play with, that could be done in the VTT, and you could copy and paste into a text file to look at later. No need for forums, so that people could just meet and play with new people. I was asking if the WotC VTT somehow didn't let you copy/paste the text chat or didn't have a text chat because of VOiP that would allow this. I am thinking the D&D VTT is a joke, but that is beside the point. I know what MapTools and OpenRPG both do, and they have the same failings for running a D&D game that NWN has where you have to script stuff out in some convoluted method. I also wasn't talking about eavesdropping, but like the poker example you missed the point of, people could come in to a game that was running a sesion, but looking for players and watch rather than rely on the description to see if the game AND the players oof it meet their tastes to join and actually play as opposed to jsut watching. Sure like the poker games you may have to wait until the proper time to actually join, but also like them you don't like the way the table is running, you don't join that table. Everyone going All-in all the time, and people just cracking "yo momma" jokes; you don't have to join that game, but can watch a little before joining to find out. That is why the function of the spectator view was added to many games where people join others to watch. [/QUOTE]
