Mr Long,
I have really enjoyed this gaming site, and will continue to post things in the future.
But, has anyone ever asked what advice you can give a starting GM? Is there any discussion board anywhere where people who want to become better GM's can look find some help?
I have been a Champions player/GM for many years, though I see players who want to try GMing and have no clue as to what that takes.
I'd volunteer myself to give advice and answer general questions, but isn't that your job???

I don't give advice about GMing unless I feel I have something to add. I think that anyone who's reasonably experienced at GMing probably has advice to offer a newcomer. The only place I stake out any specific territory for myself is providing "official" answers to rules questions.

So, by all means, if you want to offer GMing advice, go for it! I'd suggest using the board appropriate to the genre, or if it's general advice, "HERO System Discussion" or "General Roleplaying."
