I'm hoping that the migration sparks new interest in games! Because I really want to do some PbP away from the cancer that is GiantITP.
Myth-Weavers is a good place to play too. Though I agree BGs gaming section seems to be lower traffic.
Re: Giantitp: Is it as bad as I hear? I got a warning from a very zealous mod going by ZebTheTroll or somesuch. I was warned because I got upset when other players in a game I was joining started condescending me and I defended myself.
It's very bad. I've gotten points for saying adventurers should be a cut above the random people in the world. Because it's wrong to say that Dirt Farmers can't take on things like Manticores.
There have also been some because a thread was made specifically to insult a person and they entered that thread and told everyone nicely to focus on their own game instead of bashing someone else's.
GitP still has more good players than Myth Weavers though. I've gotten nothing but horror stories out of them.
