RPGnet
open-in-new
<p>RPGnet is a <a href="/facts/Role-playing_game/bN0QjhPs">role-playing game</a> website. It includes sections on <a href="/facts/Wargaming/KDl58Nkf">wargames</a>, <a href="/facts/Tabletop_game/8Tzq33DV">tabletop games</a> and <a href="/facts/Video_game/vmTdNASJ">video games</a>, as well as columns on gaming topics. </p><p>RPGnet was founded in 1996 by Emma and Sandy Antunes, Shawn Althouse (aka etrigan) and Brian David Phillips, as a way to unify a number of transient game sites. In 2001 it was purchased by Skotos Tech, but maintains creative and editorial autonomy. Currently it is being run by Shannon Appelcline of Skotos, while a number of volunteer <a href="/facts/Forum_moderator/bRuqfQfN">moderators</a> and administrators help maintain the forums.[<i>relevant?</i>] In 2024, RPG.net was sold to RPGMatch, who would take over development duties while the administration of the forums was to remain independent. </p>
