FYI, i see a lot of users joining, but not many people are actually subscribing to the communities. Subscribing to the communities you like will help them grow within the fediverse and be easier to discover!

My antimalware keeps trying to block the site due to "excessive notification requests." Has anyone else had this issue, and is this something that can be addressed?

If there's a community you want added, comment it here. We'll create it, and you can comment in that community and we'll make you the mod of it.

I made an account to post this, not sure if this is a known issue but I couldn't find anything about it. I've subscribed to a couple communities from here from Lemmy.world and made a post 2 days ago, but all my subscriptions are still pending and my post is still not shown on here (it's showing for other people subscribed from lemmy.world though apparently).

I'm not sure if this is specific to lemmy.world. Or is this instance just having performance issues?

An external community needs 1 subscriber to be visible in ttrpg.network, after the first subscriber it's visible for everyone.

This is a bit more complicated than just searching for the community in the list of communities.

Here's what works for both lemmy and kbin.

Put the url of the community in search:

  • lemmy example "https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld"
  • kbin example "https://kbin.social/m/science" click search, click the result, then subscribe.

After that it's visible here https://ttrpg.network/communities/listing_type/All/page/1

And for example science is here : https://ttrpg.network/c/science@kbin.social

FYI, i've been seeing some complaints about emails not showing up or taking a long time, so in order to not hinder new sign ups, i went ahead and suspended email verification for now. I might look at turning it back on later, but for now I wanted the user on boarding experience to go better.

This means that you should, after setting up your account, add an email to it, just to make sure you have the ability to recover your account at a later date.

Since it's only the admins who can set up communities perhaps it would be a good idea to create a spot where we all can suggest and discuss what communties we are missing. For what it is worth it's kind of good that a themed/focused instance restrict community creation.

With that out of the way there are two communities I miss here and haven't found on the fediverse.

AskGameMasters - a place for gathering questions about GMing. And encourage them.

LookingForGroup - a place to post game adverts and perhaps also for players to post their desires.

I could not figure out how to do a modmail, but please take care.

If you are reading this post as someone who just made their account and cannot log in, I am making this post for you.

I had created my account, but I could not log in. Progress would continue without error message or timeout, which appears to be the case for anyone who has created an account but not verified their email yet.

However, I had not received the email to verify my signup mailbox. It appears that this can take a long time to be received, over 2 hours in my case.

So if you are attempting to sign up and log in, you may need to wait a while for an email to come in from admin@ttrpg.network

I hope this helps, cheers!

I would like to support the effort to move away from Reddit, but I have no idea how this new site works.

Any resources you would recommend? Also, should we consider putting a sticky note on how to use the platform?
