I’d love to find a PBP campaign in the Realms, specifically the 1E-3E era (I have no interest in the post Spellplague Realms). I’m fine with using a variety of rules sets, like AD&D, D&D 3.5, Pathfinder 1E, and even Castles & Crusades, Shadowdark, and/or Old-School Essentials. I just want to play in the classic Realms. So can someone point me somewhere where I can hopefully find a campaign like that? Thanks.

| I second www.rpol.net. Though you'll need to check the Wanted - Players thread regularly, because older edition games fill up quickly. You could also post in a Wanted - DM thread, to see if someone would start up a game for you and others. |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be...
Sigh... And now 4e as well. |

You’ll have the best luck finding a classic Forgotten Realms play-by-post campaign by checking established PBP-friendly communities rather than general LFG spaces. Reddit’s r/lfg and r/Realms are good starting points if you clearly state that you’re looking for a 1E–3E era Realms game and are flexible on systems like AD&D, 3.5, Pathfinder 1E, or other old-school rulesets. Dedicated roleplay forums such as Myth-Weavers, EN World, and Giant in the Playground also regularly host or advertise PBP campaigns, including older Realms settings. In addition, many Discord servers focused on old-school D&D or Forgotten Realms have PBP channels where GMs recruit for long-term games. Being explicit about your preference for pre-Spellplague Realms and your rules flexibility will greatly increase your chances of finding a suitable campaign. |
