this has to do with a topic I posted awhile saying that I was quite annoyed at the fact that RPG video games are taking over, well today I got annoyed by that once again.. while searching "online(forum) role playing" it popped up with rants like this and, would you have guessed, forums for RPG video games
I knew a website that let people easily set up roleplaying forums but either its dead or very distant from me, I knew its name at one time by now im lost as to what it might be
once again I set you a small call of despair asking for good forum roleplaying sites, any one will do just stick them here and have a short description of it
Roleplaying.. is it being killed by video games?

Not being one who frequents roleplaying sites (although I might in the future), I can't tell you if any of these places are good, but the following site has a list of over 100 roleplaying forums:Searif Bogard wrote:once again I set you a small call of despair asking for good forum roleplaying sites, any one will do just stick them here and have a short description of it

Most of them are probably small or dead, but I think you'll probably be able to find some good ones in there. If you explore the site further, you'll also find links to some roleplaying chatrooms and some play by mail games.
A Google search for 'roleplaying forums' also turned up a fair number of hits and, although a few were for video games, a fair number of the ones on the first page looked like the right kind of thing.
Anyway, I hope that helps.

Heh... I still do most roleplaying in person if possible, whether under my own system (because the system rarely matters - it's more on the players and the GM / DM that makes the game fun.
You ever try to roleplay with a book? It ain't fun. The most you can get the book to do is bounce your dice off of it. That's about it. Roleplaying is about people. While I don't game as much as I'd like, it is a passion of mine that will be left for the times when I don't have to work as much to earn my paycheck.
