I asked "where I can find a forum where people are discussing RPG design without it being dominated by Forge / GNS discussions."
You claim that's just not possible, it's "a consequence of the Forge popping up and, erm, doing innovative things with game design" and that "people who like to talk about RPG design like to talk about the latest experiment which has caught their eye."
Which honestly makes me roll my eyes in disbelief. You suggested it's not possible to discuss RPG design without it being dominated by Forge / GNS discussion, because that stuff is just so experimental?
In that last week I've seen Forge people describe their work (games or talk about games) as being: experimental, "Hippy games", revolutionary, and being like beat poets or auteur filmmakers.
I couldn't find an icon for throwing up your hands in bewilderment and saying "Sure, whatever. If it makes them happy to think that. I mean, really, what difference does it make? If they're making micro-niche games with little broad market appeal, do I care? No, actually I don't. I'll guess I'll just do my own thing then..." So I used the little rolling eyes guy instead.
Anyway...
