Separate LFG Sections for 5E, Pathfinder, and Misc. Systems

It would be really nice if we had a separate LFG section for less-popular systems. If a GM wants to organize a game in one of those systems, it can take a while to build up a good player count. That is difficult to do because the recruiting thread gets buried within a day by 5E posts. I think it would make sense to let the 5E players have their own section, with a second for Pathfinder 1 and 2E and a third for all other systems. Thanks for considering this request.

I also have experienced an issue of looking for a specific game, and seeing games that are just 5E but also for some reason have the other game im searching listed.

It would probably be better if the LFG posts had you select a game system when you made the post, then you could add filtering to the forums and allow us to just filter for games of that type. Without a group for each specific game, we just end up with the same problem.

The nice thing about separate areas for games, though, is that some of these small or indie systems don't have the brand recognition that would make people search for them. But if there were an area for people who were into the non-big-name systems to look, they might find something they want to try. Also, for the OSR systems. There are so many that it isn't practical to search them each by filter, but a lot of OSR players would be happy to play a variety of them.
