Seeking RP Forum

So this may be the wrong place for this, but I figured I’d give it a shot.

Way back when I was younger (think 15-10 years ago) I used to RP on a couple forums. Each was dedicated entirely to one RP and usually had a good side vs an evil side or at least two obviously opposed factions with neither being ‘good’.

They varied in complexity from simple RP in a fantasy setting, to some with actual numerical character stats and rolls for some actions.

The problem is, the one I remember is no longer around (though the setting wouldn’t interest me any more anyway, and no I’m not sharing, don’t judge me) and I can’t seem to find any others.

I’ve googled but it’s hard to find something when you only have a description for the idea and not a name.

So, again, this may be the entirely wrong place to look, but I figured someone from here might have an idea what I’m talking about.

A lot of these forums had links to others with different settings/systems, kind of recommending players to each other, so if I could even find one it might help.

(Note- the wife and I intend to play on Roll20 in the near future, but I was kind of hoping to get into one of these games because they are persistent and I’d like to have a long-term character to develop)

There were multiple boards for Pern (typically called Weyrs in reference to the setting).

Several different BSG sites 20 years ago, but most died with the new show launch in 2004. Admittedly, the new series has a much better baseline to work from for RPing in the setting, but it's also almost totally different save for the high concept.

There are some based upon the works of Mercedes Lackey out there. My wife used to be part of two, but I'm not aware of them currently.

There still are Star Trek ones out there. I'm certain there are still rules-free and rules-light sites out there for fantasy as well.
