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.

Quote from: obrynDark Sun all the way.  But the original Dark Sun, as described in the box set, not the blasphemous post-novels watered-down Dark Sun.

Indeed.

Forgotten Realms all the way, and I got to admit that Bioware and Black Isle classics influenced me.

Quote from: McrowSpell Jammer is pretty damn cool, IMO.

there were only 10 options, these were the 9 I figured would be the most popular.

Well, if the Wizards' boards are any qualifier, you figured wrong.

Mystara (1245 threads, 19k posts) is WAY more popular (or at least has a much more active fanbase) than Birthright (84 threads, 600 posts) or Spelljammer (346 threads, 2900 posts); and slightly more popular than  Ravenloft (1067 threads, 11k posts), or Planescape (1094 threads, 12k posts).

Even though I've yet to play in it, and even though the World of Khaas is the most badly edited and most redundant setting book I've ever seen, my vote is for Arduin.

Overall of the published settings: Planescape

Also like Al-Qadim, Greyhawk, Mystara (I knew it as the Known World).

Honorary vote: good homebrews and Tekumel

Forgotten Realms followed closely by Mystara.

I always thought it was a shame that they never went for a game like Ars Magica, with strong historical roots, but which played like AD&D.
 Of course, setting conversion is why we're gamers!
