Products by Forum Members

Post by Kalex the Omen »

Tried searching around a bit, but I haven't found what I'm looking for. Has anyone curated a list of products available for purchase that were written or designed by forum members here? I like to put my money in the pockets of people I know, or at least am acquainted with through some personal interaction before I buy from complete strangers (when possible of course). I'd love to see a list of at least the most notable works by K&KA members.

Any assistance would be awesome.

One thing to remember is that some people separate their contributions from their online presence and/or their names for a lot of reasons. I'm not saying that a list is bad, but I know there are people here who are definitely not interested in being identified as an RPG author/contributor.

That said, the ones who don't have an issue with that can list themselves.

That's a point I hadn't considered Steve. Maybe some kind of thread (probably not here in General) where folks can continuously edit a single post with their work if they'd like? Idk, maybe that's just what signatures are for to some extent. I'm just always on the lookout, within my means, to support small publishers, but absolutely hate wading through the deluge of titles in a place like OBS.

The only people who call me that are my friends. EOTB, please.

Ack, accidentally deleted my post. I was saying that such a list would basically include damned near every old school product there is, since probably a lot more authors/publishers/artists/layout people/editors/contributors have accounts here than you realize. My other point was that I wasn’t sure it would be a good idea based on the culture here. We all relate as equals who have mutual respect towards each other as fellow fans and creative minds. Nobody is here to be seen or to keep score, if that makes sense.

Fair enough! Though my interest is more authored products, I suppose it wouldn't be quite fair to limit such a list to only writers. It can take a lot more than writing to make a product notable. Perhaps I'll search around for postings about favorite OSR products, or start a thread with that premise, "Post your top 5 OSR products, and some reasons for your choices." Something like that.
