Advertising G+ Hangouts, Skype and other medium games

I know we are allowed to somewhat alter some general RPoL rules on this forum, so the question goes, are we allowed to advertise/discuss on World of Darkness forum our games that are not played on RPoL (as long as they comply to other RPoL's content rules)?

I'll check with the RPoL mods, but I'm pretty sure those still have to go to Offsite Gaming.

The way I see it, this forum is like a regular RPoL game, so if we are allowed to mention other RPoL games by name (but not this forum on other RPoL forums), why not advertise/discuss offsite games? After all, we are allowed to mention other games (both on and off RPoL) with GM's consent in regular a regular game, are we not?

This is NOT a regular game, it is one of the unofficial forums, and therefore more of the regular forum rules apply to it.

Shrug. Actually my impression was that mods are actually doing their best to treat this forum as a game as much as they can, and as such I see no reason to change the policy now that users stand to gain from it.

Heard back from the RPoL mods. They're fine with it, so go ahead. :)

So with the death of G+, have people switched to something else?  Has anyone tried MeWe for gaming?

So what other mediums are people playing on these days?  I'm assuming one of the popular VTT or Discord.  The pandemic has given RPG playing a boost.
