We're part of a small webring that's just started, funnily enough the GM
who set it up runs role playing games, and he didn't want to limit it to
his type of game.

Firstly, PBM is a very small hobby, so where's the benefit to anyone in
dividing it up into even smaller chunk? Secondly, we know quite a large
number of players who are just as happy slicing someone's head off in an
RPG as they are in a computer mod, so perhaps your suspicion that
there's not much overlap isn't correct. OK, it's not a *huge* overlap,
but maybe enough to make it worthwhile...

I eagerly await your extremist rant<g>.
