OOC: Tim's suggestion (Sorry, Harris!)

Back in the 'old' days when I used to run my own BBS(Bulletin
Board System). (This was before the internet was a mainstream thing,
in the mid '80s). I used to host each of my several RPG's with a
another message group that was specifically devoted to the RPG's
discussion and chatter. Hence, for my TFT World of Cendri RPG, I had
a message group for 'World Of Cendri' where strictly RPG posts were
made and another for 'World of Cendri - Discussion' where all
the 'player to gamemaster' questions about the game were aired, and
general natter of player to player disussion of things related to the
game was posted. I think we could easily do the same for the Blue
Dwarf RPG, And it should satisfy both crowds of people! What does
everybody think?
Oh, and remember, all this is just in my humble opinion(IMHO),
I'm not speaking as a moderator, superior or anything like that.

Not that I've got a lot of clout here (being one of the Funny
New Guys), but I have seen this problem before. Tim's idea to create
a parallel E-group for the express purpose of an OOC chatboard WILL
solve this problem. It allows us to chat with each other OOC while
not interfering with the flow of the IC posts. I heartily recommend
it.
I also recommend this (Tim alluded to it): if you have a
grievance against another player, contact them OFF-LIST first. That
way, you haven't humiliated them in front of the entire group. If I
found out about a complaint that someone had against me by reading it
on the main list, I'd be more than a little upset. Let's try solving
these things behind the scenes.
Just my two bits. Nonrefundable.
