We are currently looking for writers for our RPG Blog.  Posts do not have to be role playing game specific, but they do have to be something that would interest gamers.  If you are interested please let me know.  If you have any questions please post em here.

I am tempted to blog about Star Wars: The old Replubic once it gets released. Originally I wanted to run that on blogger but I could do it here instead. I have never done anything like this before so it is kinda like an experiment for me.

I am going to be opening up the blog section soon.  It will be a beta test of sorts to see how people feel about it.  It is a separate section of the site and so that people can have complete control over what they do.

Will the blogs be searchable to people off-site?  Will they show up on a main page, like the other blogs did?

They will be searchable by other people.  I am not entirely sure how I we should integrate them.  The blogs link is in the main menu.  I want to have a beta test of sorts so that we can figure out together what purpose they can serve.

Maybe we should just ask everybody what it is they expect out of a blog, even those not interested in writing one.

For my part I generally like them to have some type of common theme or subject matter.  

Being that this is a gaming site they should either be in some way related to gaming, or have a subject theme than interests us as a community (which is why I asked if people were interested in a WoT blog before starting it)

I am going to make one just so that people can see it in action and have a better idea about how it works.

Also I fully approve of anything that will save me the weekly aggravation of updating that ginormous "Previously on..." section of my blogs :D

I've been kicking around the idea of a blog; working on world-building using a form/guide I have.  I was considering building a world to be available for use by everyone here on the boards.  Would this be something that would interest people?

The kind of world is to be determined.  I was thinking a supernatural Wild West/steam punk as the most likely candidate, as we have a fantasy and space world already created here.  I'm taking suggestions.

An oriental inspired "western" could be interesting.  A non-space sci-fi setting.  A secret agent/spy setting mixed with almost anything else really.  A Post Apocalypse setting.  Lots of options.

Not that a Wild West/Steampunk setting wouldn't be welcome.
