The Oldest TTRPG Forum on the Net
=================================

Did you know there is an online forum for tabletop role-playing games that has

ha, I wasn't gonna link the article here because I thought everyone here
already knows how to get to Usenet. :D

I was trying to entice some people in the hobby to have a look at the
rec.games.frp. hierarchy again. But I guess having a rather obscure blog
even a few hundred views don't necessarily equate to a measurable
increase in posters...

Yeah I fought that fight for r.g.f.dnd for years, but got nowhere. I
haven't even played an online game in almost a year now so haven't been
interested as much.

I have recently started to play in two online games that I find quite
nice, and noticed that one of the GMs also has a net news server running.
