@Kalarion @Tweed I'm going to try starting over on the Mischief server if you want to give it a try. It's a TLP server a bit further along. Meh, I'll see how it goes.

Err... Probably no? At least if it's something different from the usual place I used to visit. U know I'm shtoopid AND illiterate, when it comes to such things.
In any case, I need to buy a new laptop to come and chat proper. When I sit at my desk, my main PC is usually taken up by some sort of work, I need a secondary screen to interact with the denizens.

close the work and open chat

I need the laptop for other reasons. Additionally, I cannot fit another monitor on my desk in a way that I deem elegant.

Dood. I'm currently on a skype call + whiteboard (Harmonic motion). Even if I open the chat, I wouldn't notice people tagging me, I wouldn't read the inanity and I wouldn't switch windows arounds, because work is a priority.
I need a new laptop for multiple reasons. Chiefly, it acts as my GM screen and I use it for roll20. Roll20 is developed by white-man hating pajeets, which means it's optimized like ass. As soon as I procure a new laptop with a decent amount of vram I'll be back. How do I join the server?

@Kalarion supports this and tries to get other people to help fund it. Spread the word!

Dear Gygax! Why?!?
How we have fallen...

Because the only true alternative, fantasy ground, isn't really up to shape. I tried it and I'm unimpressed. As problematic as roll20 is, it offers a videochat + mapping tool, lighting and GM layer and a pretty hefty storage space all in one. If you add the price tag of fantasy ground on top and the grueling work I'd have to do to migrate what I already have uploaded on roll20 you'll quickly realize it isn't worth it.

There's also Foundry and MapTool.

Those are pure mapping tools. Well, maptool does have a client but it's ancient stuff. Roll20 has dozens of features, like up-to-date character sheets, shared compendiums, easy handouts (both img and docs) and is actively mantained.

Huh? Foundry is being actively developed. As far as I know, it's got all the stuff you mentioned and more. It's far from being a 'pure mapping tool'. As for MapTool, it's a case of getting out what you put in given its high customizability, but it is definitely an acquired taste.

Sorry, I must have mistaken it for some other ancient tool I used to be familiar with. I actually didn't know about foundry, will look into it but I'm on the tail end of a 7 years long campaign, it would take an impressive amount of extra features to make me switch atm.
