Greetings friends!
With a little push from Chylli, here’s the new Arrange a Game sub-forum. This should take some of the stress away from the General Forum.
Please post any and all future game/meetup announcements in here (e.g. Weekly Spielbar thread…of which I’m long overdue a visit)
Keep up the good work everyone!
Neil
The general rpg forum usually only has the Thursday threads so I reckon it’s just gonna shift from one sub forum to another. Maybe create an extra sub sub forum for finding group members? Having an own thread for each Thursday is quite nice but will clutter up the forum here.
In addition - moving the existing Thursday threads to the new forum might be a good idea as well. Maybe via a Regex.
He lives!
Now just to mention, should we perhaps return to the single thread format? So the other game search threads don’t get pushed to last page due to our weekly spam.
I’m personally in favour of one thread per session. One single mega-thread could become a bit unwieldy pretty quickly!
But saying that, it’s up to you guys really. I don’t have much of a say in it (…I’m just the executive producer 
)
Yup. I too support the one-thread-a-week system.
I like the weekly thread system as well, but I do feel like it may be counterproductive to the goal of the new subforum due to soon filling it all up. Potential alternative may be to not change anything and keep spamming the general, and leave the subforum for the good people who actually are looking for a group.
Let’s just reconsider our possibilities so we don’t unintentionally go against the spirit of the split.
Actually the goal wasn’t to prevent anything from filling up.
It was just that every newbie arriving did not find the threads, for “general RPG discussion” just doesn’t sound like “uh there I’ll find the dates” but more like “there will be the system matters discussion”. Splitting the forums was more a navigational measure than anything.

Those would be great names for those two forums.
Master Elodin told me I had a knack for naming.
