on 3.5: I have to disagree with you fully on 3.5 fyron.

3.5 has a lot of new stuff, yes things are more organized, but their are also a lot of improvements. First of the ranger is actually a viable class now, whearas before, the ranger (and the paladin for that matter) where heavily front loaded, making it only worthwhile to take one or two levels of them. The ranger is also a lot more of a woodsmen now then he was before, before he was just an alternate fighter. The skills are a lot more fleshed out, there are some new feats (albiet most of the new feats are just taken from other sources)

A lot of spells have been modified (like jump, which bugs the crap out of me) some for the better.

well, i'll be interested. if you need to, i CAN DM(even tho i have no previous experience. nevertheless.) for my available times? Well, lets say any day from 6pm to 9pm (GMT -7), and more time on holidays -- probably.

As for the setting, i'm not familiar with 3.5 edition, but it cant be that difficult to learn now that i'm quite familiar with 3rd edition.

As for the program, AIM has something special for rp's, i'll ask friends that i know are playing RP's there.

That would mostly fall under the heading of "a few subtle rules"...

IIRC all it is is a dice roller... hardly worth it go go get that POS program. Unless there is a lot more... in which case it would be better to get a real Online RPG program (there are many free open source ones out there

), which would necessarily be much more feature-rich than AIM.

Fyron: I don't think a complete rewrite of a class is a subtle change.

And there are a lot of "subtle changes" that add up to much more.

Hey, if you guys really want to do this, get together sometime and come up with some times you want to game, I may be able to DM.
