Each forum has its own intonation, if not spelling.

Exactly, I think it would really workout well.

Yeah, you could say the House Rules like 'bob,' and General like 'bob,' and IC just a bit higher, you know, like 'bob,' . . .

It would be great. I really think this has high potential.

Our big concern for combining Plots & Places with Rogue's Gallery is that in order for P&P to work, it has to have more traffic. When we combine them, we'll be a lot more dilligent about moving "how do I do this in my campaign?" and " give me ideas" threads into this forum.

Great idea, so long as all the moderators are on board with moving relevant threads there and we can give the forum the necessary jump start. It would be a great forum if we could just increase the traffic there. But right now, honestly, it's just a matter of 'should I follow the rules and post something that no one will ever see?' Or 'should I slip it into General and hope none of the mods notice?'

I'd still like to have an "index of characters" from all the IC games available to me. Also, I think that the marketplace doesnt' fit in with bits n pieces...

My solution, to appease these people, is to create a forum that is specifically meant for Story Hour character lists/stats, Play by Post character lists/stats, home-game character lists/stats, and other groups of stat blocks. Rogues gallery (as time progressed) has increased to a decent pace, and gets a few posts every day. It wasn't like that before, but it would be nice to divide those two genres.

The part of Rogues gallery that most people use (the subjects that are discussions and stats, characters and examples) should be merged with plots, places, and people (my new name for such a thread), while the other half of Rogues Gallery: Character Encycleopedia (or some such) is used almost like an index of character groups and such.

That seems fun to me. Allow me to demonstrate with a Diagram...
