Tabletop Rpg posts, content, and recruitment posts.

Recruitment posts should contain what system is being played, CW for any adult/serious themes players need to be aware of and whether a game is beginner friendly.

An obvious reminder of no racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.

Emphasis on small independent rpgs like the ones in the TTRPGs for Trans Rights in Texas but not against dnd stuff.

Maybe it's about a system, a specific mechanic, lore, builds, types of players, ttrpg-adjacent products - whatever they are, share them.

I would have agreed with you a few months ago, but then I played a game where only I and the DM knew what a Krynn was and I had to explain Kender to the other players when it was revealed our npc friend wasn't actually a halfling.

You'd have thought I'd said they steal pc levels the way most of the players reacted - we were both careful to avoid language implying their borrowing is some kind of theft, but it's still what they immediately latched onto. They had no prior knowledge of their reputation, it was an entirely knee jerk reaction to learning about them.
