I will talk to him!  Since nobody else is talking to me. :(

Pffhh. I've held like two public events, and you had plenty of opportunity to come to either one. So don't you come saying nobody wants to talk to you :P

He should come to Bindier this fall and talk with the people there.

I hope Robert come too, whomever his regent is.

Screw talking in Massenmarch.  That will be clobbering time, less talking time.

I haven't thought about it and there is plenty to do already without more incessant talking.

I noticed. Create a crisis and everyone wants to solve it.

Everyone was invited, silly. I just refuse to send out mails to every single member of this community:

Word is sent out, that Princess Aubrae Avan (and the Chamberlain) is inviting everyone of import to a gathering in the Imperial City - a feast and a tourney in honour of the people leaving for the Crusade.

Yeah, I figured that Aubrae hadn't invited PETG..  She only likes the nouveau riche when they lend her troops.

Surely Osoer is talking to Wallac though, they're best buddies now aren't they?  Visiting strange new lands together, meeting interesting new people, killing them, etc, etc.

Why so sad that none will speak with you if you don't have time to talk?

It didn't work out timing wise.  By the time that happened, I was in Lyssan enroute to Rohrmarch.  Them the breaks, unfortunately.  We need cell phones in Anuire, it would be considerably easier.

No cell phones.. I've been in PBEMs that had those in the form of senates or halls and these games were outright silly. We had Avanil rushing to help Rjurik realms against Urga-zai, the turn after war was declared, and then the Gorgon helped the other side. It was cold war on Cerilia.

Then again, there's the sending spell... :)

The Conclave performs the same function but so far we've avoided the sillyness of supporting each other that you note ;-)

As long as people take the game seriously there shouldn't be any problems even with a forum for nobles, or everyone - and they do add a lot of chatter and ways for the smaller realms to interact with others or win favours/etc from other domains.

The conclave consists of a limited number of players. When you have an imperial senate, then the bickering grows in intensity and the situation easily escalates beyond control, especially since alliances tend to be made over issues that might, realistically, be completely irrelevant to the realms in question.

And also, these "ambassadors" tend to behave as if they were regents and make decisions on the fly that then create global interventions.

I prefer the RoE system where reliable  information is not as readily available and characters act with more mistrust.

While I agree that the bickering will inevitably increase in intensity and uninvolved parties will inevitably be dragged into disputes (something that I see as positive incidentally) if a game has a central forum, the real issue is in my mind not the forum in itself, but the attitude of the players.

If players take a cartoon/board game approach then you will get problems regardless of whether there is a central forum of some sort - at least a forum offers an excuse for why regents at the opposite ends of Cerilia are talking to each other, etc.
