That's basically true ... Tightbeam has large lists pointing to commercial game web pages; The PBeM News has a large list pointing to free game web pages. However, most vistitors come to The PBeM News to visit the "announcements" pages. In the past, the announcements were coursely categorized "Rpg" or "other" and "commercial" or "free." Commercial announcements have always been welcome; they were just mixed up with all the other announcements. Recently, many more categories were added and commercial announcements have been partitioned into their own section. The result is that there's now much better support and visiablitiy for different kinds of RPG games, non-rpg games, and commercial games in the site's announcement section. Commercial Game announcements expire in 30 days; that makes the area perfect for _ brief _ monthly announcements. The service is free and I invite and encourage all to use it. - Ed. http://www.Irony.com and http://www.PBeM.com Up
