Is a forum eligible to host pathfinder society games?

[JJNinja]

Hi! I am a user of an italian forum about RPGs, and i would like to suggest to the staff of that Forum to host some pathfinder society games, but before doing that i'd like to know if it's possible.
Currently the forum hosts Play by Forum and Play by Chat games, are these
ways of playing suitable for Pathfinder Society Games?
I've read the guide but I couldn't find answers to my question.
The forum adress is (hope it's not considered spam) www.dragonslair.it

JJNinja,

Yes, play by post is a perfectly acceptable form of Pathfinder Society Organized Play, and not only mentioned but promoted in the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play:

GtPFSOP v4.3, pg. 6 wrote:

Another place to play Pathfinder Society events is online. Allowed formats include play-by-post, chat-based games, digital tabletops, and webcam-enhanced “face-to-face” gaming. So long as the Game Master has a way of distributing all of the appropriate paperwork (by fax, scan, or otherwise), any form of legitimate online play is allowed and encouraged.

Edit: Sorry for all the edits. It's late... er... early.

Thanks for the help! I'll suggest it immediately to the forum Staff

Also keep in mind that if you're playing in a play-by-post, which can take some time, that character is "locked" to that adventure and can't be played in another one until it's completed.
