IMO, the one that is there is driving younger people away talking about receiving snail mail turns by posting pictures of envelopes... I think we need a more modern approach when we promote Play-By-EMAIL on websites. Emphasize the deep gameplay and use examples of your own Galac-Tac as a PBeM that utilizes technology to enhance the experience.

Anywhere else we want to talk about it is likewise a good place to keep references, but they can all point to the same PDF files on the same non-social, public website. And people could always go directly there to check for the latest releases as soon as they learn where it is - I've done that fairly often myself.
I'm not talking about anyone vetoing where notices are posted. I'm suggesting we post everywhere at once, but just keep a single download copy in a publicly (and anonymously) available location.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but what's wrong with that?
I apologize, Davin. I do not intend to put words in your mouth. Your "I refuse to use Facebook" (paraphrased) sounded like a veto to me at the time. Now I better understand your meaning. I have no objection to what you said in this paragraph. The more important issue (which I helped derail us from) is abandoning the single massive issue that comes out every 2 years in favor of lots of smaller PDFs that come out every few weeks...
