SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

How is MeWe Going For You?

I think over time it may get more active as people actually hear of it. I asked around and no one locally knew what it was. Others are on Discord which may be picking up part of the slack as well.

Problem is. Sooner ot later the people that were a problem on G+ will start migrating more to these other venues and try their old tricks all over again.

I've signed up to it it and joined a few interest groups.
I'll see how it goes.  
It looks a LOT like the G+ communities and I can see some of the ones I was a member of have transitioned to over there.

Quote from: RPGPundit;1091821How many people here are on MeWe? How do you think of it as a replacement for the G+ gaming scene?

I think it's doing better than I expected, there's a lot of good stuff there, especially in my groups!

I didn't move to MeWe. I'm using just my blog sites, YouTube, and Pinterest/DeviantArt these days.

Quote from: SavageSchemer;1091924The software / site itself is a huge pain in the ass, but I've met a number or pretty cool people I enjoy talking to over there. Particularly in the Necrotic Gnome group, which is pretty active.

The Traveller group(s) are much less lively than I'd like.
Necrotic Gnome is one of the best groups on MeWe. There are no bots as yet. If MeWe is too quiet for your taste and you would like to change it, joining that group and making some of its members your contacts may go a long way toward that goal.

I joined MeWe back in October but largely stopped paying attention to it around March.  Too busy with other things.

Chainsaw

Wasn't a G+ user (or FaceBook). Tried MeWe for a few months when everyone switched over from G+, then quit. Prefer the forums.

I wasn't on G+ and deleted my FB account in disgust. I only use Twitter to follow publishers. I haven't looked at MeWe yet. Maybe I will give it a try, if using it is intuitive enough.

It's OK, so far. Some groups that aren't attended to on a regular basis have a bot problem.
"Meh."

So far I've joined Inglorious OSR,  Call of Cthulhu RPG and Pacesetter RPG Fans. Any other groups I should check out?

I prefer forums and loathe social media, but eventually I will have to join a few for game promotion.

Glad to hear MeWe is growing.
