Playing by post, huh? I've never tried that myself, but it sounds interesting. I'll wait and see how many say 'yes' before I decide.

Well play by post does exist, in general there is a DM and also tends to be a requirement to post reply within a certain time.

After that the rules of each game vary,, rule set, permitted classes, spells and so on. I am engaged in a few play by posts. I though do not have any interest in play by post DMed by silverwolfer.

"Caring for afterwards ...? Ker repeated this without understanding.
"After action, afterwards," the dragon said. "Choose the afterwards first, then the action. Fools choose action first."

I'm in too many pbp games to join right now (and anyone who's looking for a 2e pbp Realms game should look into the Moonlight Madness thread in Running the Realms), but if you want to move ahead with this one, I recommend using the website www.rpol.net. It's built specifically for running pbp RPG games. It's a little counter-intuitive, and I prefer to use other dicerollers than the one it comes with, but overall it's a good site.

Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be...
Sigh... And now 4e as well.

I've actually been looking to give Pathfinder a try but set in the Realms rather than Golarion.
Easier said than done, at least in terms of PbP games.
The few I've seen pop up have fizzled so far.
Golarion PFRPG games are a dime a dozen, understandably.

Who knows, maybe my interests will turn to D&D 5E soon enough.
I watched the PAX celebrity game and it really seems like a cleaned up version of 2E.
