This Play-by-Post Feature is something that I prepared about a year ago and submitted on Jira. I believe that this is a feature that is coming or strongly being considered. My purpose for posting it again on the New Feature board is to encourage greater feedback, so Dimi aka the Forge Master knows what everyone likes and hears the voices of suggestions and recommendations.
I only ask that if you vote for this feature request please give some feedback to what you think it should look like.
I very much want to toss Discord out and bring to focus the power of World Anvil for Play-by-Post.
