ENworld is not like those sites. What you have done, is to draw causality from an observation where one may or may not be related. I dislike the sites mentioned for exactly the same reason you do, but having GURPs or WoD or Hero is not what makes those sites the way they are, nor is that fact that ENworld is ***D&D only - the reason that it is a community and friendly site. Those properties have nothing to do with one another. [***ENworld only gives the illusion of being d20 only. Several of the story hours and many of the plot threads are not d20]There are plenty of sites for discussion of other systems - as mentioned Hero discussions are best conducted on another friendly site - Hero Games but when it comes to reviews, posting them to Heros own website is rather futile. There was an immediate flood of reviews but that should VERY shortly subside. d20 will remain the overwhelming bulk of ENworld reviews - time will show this. I, personally, don't have any desire to post supers reviews on ENworld but reviews of fantasy based RPGs - any FRPGs - can only help ENWorld. When it comes to other genres - well, the cat is out of the bag - we have modern, spycraft, future, SW, B5, SG-1, M&M, and just about any genre you could desire as legit reviews already on ENworld. The people who are interested in M&M have a huge crossover with those who are interested in Hero Games or Silver Age Sentinals. Just like a review of a Hero sytem fantasy module will appeal to many ENworld readers, a review of Champions Superheros by Arron Alliston will appeal to many of the players of M&M or SAS. Since those people are already here and already reading the reviews, it makes sense that those reviews would be useful to many folks even if they are not useful to me.Finally, exclusionary has never been ENworlds policy. The opposite is true. The community is diverse and we tend to respect each others space rather than dictating what should or should not be legit for discussion.That said a third category - non-d20 games certianly would be an easy fix.[EDITED - because I had been up 26 hours and it really showed.] <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
