Online Play
Since I'm going to be rearching online play for HeartQuest Online anyway, I thought I'd ask if anyone on the forum had any war stories regarding play by chat, e-mail or computer assist program that they;d be willing to share with me that would give me some additional insights into this area.

RE: Online Play
I've been running and participating in on-line games for almost a decade, and for the last five years it has been my sole method of gaming. I've gamed via IRC, ICQ chat, the now defunct PowWow, e-mail and messageboard, and a few specifically RPG-oriented software packages, thus I hope I might have some valuable insight and experience to offer you.
Additionally, this short thread might provide you with some insight, or at least a springboard for questions, since wanting to know about on-line gaming is a great deal like asking, "I want to know how the world works, so, tell me about physics."
Feel free to post questions here or contact me via e-mail and I'll be glad to help out (and check out the Indie Netgaming group, too!).
