Where is everyone?

Post by stefanstr » Wed Nov 26, 2014 9:42 am

There have been no posts on this forum for the last few days. So... where is everyone?

What other forums do you frequent that are on topic of mapping/RPG/etc.?

I've got accounts on quite a lot of forums, but the one I hang out at most is The Piazza. I have a stupidly high post-count over there. (I have more posts than anyone else.)

I'm not the most vocal over there, but I read the worldbuilding subreddit regularly. There are other subreddits dedicated purely to mapping but it's not just the maps that interest me.

If you decide to post maps on /r/worldbuilding please remember the golden rule: rivers converge and rarely diverge. You will be picked up on it immediately. Oh and flair your post immediately after making it. It's easy to do (there are guidelines on the sidebar if you get stuck) and it directs those who are more likely to be interested in your post directly to it.

Thanks for the tips. I am also more of a world builder. Maps are just a tool.

What do you mean with „flairing“ a post?

After you've posted on certain subreddits, including /r/worldbuilding, you can add a flair to your post. To do so view the post that you just made and look towards the top of the page. You should see a "flair" link. Clicking on that allows you to assign a category to your post.

Just pick whatever's the closest if you're not really sure which one to use.
