Could you post gaming ideas and discussions to .fun.gaming, please?

I would love to see what is *built* in relation to castles and villages and
such, but game stats and rules don't really belong in .castle, IMO.

I agree.

Why does this have to be in .fun.gaming?

Because fun.gaming was created for all talk of big rules-based games.  .Castle
is for discussions on MOCs, inspiration, stories, and the like.

its not like everybody who comes to .castle goes to .fun.gaming... so not all
could see it... and it would lose a decent bit of its following due to the
lack of people looking at it.  i didnt even know .fun.gaming existed until you
pointed it out.

The argument that "not everyone will see it" has been used to justify most
improperly placed posts, and it isn't an acceptable reason according to the
admins.  Besides, thats why crossposting and follow-up changes are included in
the software, so posts can be appropriately targeted.  Posts about the game
should have been posted here and in fun.gaming, and follow-ups set to
fun.gaming.

Also, there are ways to browse the whole list of newsgroups in order to
familiarize oneself with the layout of the site.  I highly recommend it.  :)
