    I think a 2300 forum could be useful. I certainly have plans of one day getting a game going. As you might have guessed from Targan's character idea my version of 2300 isn't quite cannon. Among other things I'm borrowing a bit from David Brin's Uplift novels by including altered gorrilas, chimps and dolphins. I have my own ideas about the Kafers too

    I think I'll still have a poke through the 2320 stuff to see if any ideas appeal to me...

          I have created the 2300AD forum and copied this post as its first post.

            Hi natehale1971 I'm also a big fan of 2300AD.

            After reading your comments...

            I had enjoyed the 2300ad RPG alot. It was my default hard sci-fi campaign setting for a very long time. And i use to be a member of the many yahoo groups, until i got fed up with the people who selectively chose the things in canon they loved while ignoring the things that went against their own home-brew campaigns. I even had started two webpages for the game. A canon German Federal Republic page for the Grand Game II, and a website dedicated to My own version of 2300ad that inculded all of the changes to the history thanks to how the Twilight Wars ended...
            It reminded me of a webpage run by Richard Spake along time ago. Are you Richard by any chance

              That would be me. Richard A. Spake at your service.
              Fuck being a hero. Do you know what you get for being a hero? Nothing! You get shot at. You get a little pat on the back, blah blah blah, attaboy! You get divorced... Your wife can't remember your last name, your kids don't want to talk to you... You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me kid, nobody wants to be that guy. I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.

                Hello Richard, and thanks for getting the 2300AD forum going. I wondered why you went of the radar on the yahoo 2300AD groups, seem to remember there was a lot of nonsense about what was canon and what was not some time ago.

                You may not remember, but years ago I e-mailed you a bunch of T2K orbats and you e-mailed me the complete Spakesworld universe in return. I still have all those Spakesworld articles on disk. A lot of fun.

                  In general we have avoided those sort of arguments on this forum, but at Nate's (Richard's) suggestion I have split off his stuff into a sub forum. Seems a bit odd to have a sub forum more active that the main forum, but hopefully the main 2300AD forum will grow to cover that fact.

                      I'll do that Richard, although it will take a few days as I have to root around and find that disk and then sort through all the 2300ad files I have stored, and then copy and paste it on to a world file.

                      Later

                        Thank you Sean, please take your time and not put yourself out. I don't need it right away. i've been going through the notes i've been working on to post to the 2300ad forum at the moment to do.

                          I have seen this happen a few times on this forum and its parent forum - members having lost material they had written then re-connecting with other members who used to frequent other forums and have copies of their work stored away. I think it is an excellent extra benefit of participating in a forum such as this, where people so often seem to be prepared to go out of their way to assist one another. Bravo.

                            I have posted on the T2300 forum the beginnings of the rules MajorPo and I wrote for creating transgenic characters, namely uplifted gorillas.
