Tabletop Rpg posts, content, and recruitment posts.

Recruitment posts should contain what system is being played, CW for any adult/serious themes players need to be aware of and whether a game is beginner friendly.

An obvious reminder of no racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.

Emphasis on small independent rpgs like the ones in the TTRPGs for Trans Rights in Texas but not against dnd stuff.

Back when I was a kid I used to RP a bit on aol chat rooms nothing serious, dice rolls were usually fast and loose and we didn't use any set systems as they didn't exist for what I was doing (Mortal Kombat, Final Fantasy).

I found this site that hosts PBP with dice rollers set up for different games systems.

Wondering if anyone here has experience with this?

I tried play-by-post in high school, but I was real flighty and had too short of an attention span, so all those games fell apart pretty quickly.

I just started a play-by-post campaign recent using Discord, and it's been a lot of fun. We're playing a mystery/investigation game, so there's less of an emphasis on 2D grid combat (which can be a real sticking point/weakness of traditional PbP).

Cool, I figured discord was probably going to be where most of the action was taking place anyway.
