Hi there,

Folks, it's not hard.

Indie Design - for actually building specific games
GNS Discussion - clarifying or debating various aspects of this specific level of RPG analysis
RPG Theory - any and all other aspects of role-playing as a process
Actual Play - for instances of real actual role-playing.

So say James wants to discuss Dust Devils - posting at the Forge requires that he consider just what he wants to discuss, and to choose a forum appropriately. If that seems too restrictive, there are other websites to use, or even private email.

Clearly, there are areas of overlap among the Forge forums. That shouldn't be difficult either. For instance, if someone makes an alpha-version of their game available, and you play it and want to talk about it, then either Indie Design or Actual Play would be just fine (but not both).

And finally, if you want to discuss anything related to a game or publisher that has its own specific forum, feel free to post either there OR in an appropriate general forum - your choice about that will probably be based on who the Moderator is, and whether you want the audience to be focused on that specific game or not.

Don't sweat it.

Best,
Ron
