This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Hmm. Probably by having more 'stuff.' I mean, RPG.net has a very visually interesting front end, links to products, news, columns, reviews, etc.

While TheRPGSite is more... basic web forum.
This forum is great in that the moderators aren\'t jack-booted fascists.

Unfortunately, this forum is filled with total a-holes, including a bunch of rape culture enabling dillholes.

So embracing the \'no X is better than bad X,\' I\'m out of here. If you need to find me I\'m sure you can.

They had on for this website as well for a while. That one should probably be resurrected.

The main difference, aside from the fact that something like half of rpgnet's volume is COMPLETELY unrelated to RPGs, is the fact that both those sites are a lot older than theRPGsite.  It's unlikely that inertia can ever be overcome, as such.  theRPGsite gets bigger as both those other guys get crappier, but would only explode in size if rpgnet or enworld were to completely disappear.

There are two boards for RPGs, four if you count AP and PbP boards.  That's out of what, over a dozen total?

I think saying half of their volume is RPGs is being uncharacteristically kind.

Tangency is so much a share of the volume that there are users who post there, never read gaming threads, and don't play (and never have) RPGs.

Those are the mods, right? :D

I remember in rpgnet General one time, a poster was utterly shocked when I said I didn't read rpgnet Tangency and had no interest in what went on there. For her it was the site's raison d'etre.

The post counts are public.

RPG Boards: 7,518,876 posts
All Other Boards: 7,653,700 posts

(This does not include Trouble Tickets or the Reviews forums. Although the 54,000 posts in the Reviews forum are probably predominantly RPG-related.)

Out of curiosity, what's the count for Tangency?

(I don't think it is publicly available since Tangency itself is not.)
