Bio

I've been playing since AOL days (I just dated myself, didn't I?), and I've been looking to get more writing into my life again. I do paragraphs, consider myself advanced, and write in the third person. I live in the Eastern US timezone; I'm 30+ and prefer mature RP partners. You don't have to be my age by any means, but that maturity needs to be there. XD

I can post multiple times during the day and would love to find other folks who can do the same. I write paragraphs, and the amount can vary depending on the situation, but you can typically expect 2-3. I may go a bit shorter if the scene calls for it, such as if there are a lot of conversations or a location transition. I can also go a bit longer if I'm diving into the way my characters think/feel, setting a scene, or happen to get into it. If I churn out 50 paragraphs, don't feel you have to! We're good as long as you get a paragraph or two and hit all of the critical parts.







Things about me:
I love to write! I also love video games, TTRPGS, etc., and enjoy fibercrafts (knitting, crocheting, spinning), watercolor, and about 5000 other hobbies. XD

@Jen They are right: I hide username changes made more than a year ago. Not sure where to put this info. The idea is that people should know that you changed your name, and they have a year to be able to connect you to your old identity, and after that you get some privacy.


Thanks for confirming!
<Snipped quote by Jen>

i believe it's all usernames older than a year that get blacked out, but don't quote me on that one.


Oh, that could be! I only joined back in October.
@Mahzapparently my old user name isn't blacking itself out on my profile. 😅 A friend pointed it out to me, so they can see my old one too.
Not sure if anyone has noted it yet or not - changing your username makes your email unverified. Not a big deal, but not sure if it's intended or not.
@Mahz

I'm not sure what the ideal is here, and I think everyone will want it to work a little bit differently. For example, I don't mind getting email notifications for DMs if I'm actively browsing the site, but I'm going to guess that some people would.

I think the other boards I'm on just send you the notifications whether or you're considered online or not.

I also don't have a preference whether or not the context of the DM is included in the email, but I could see people having an opinion here. Even on the boards that spit out the entire DM in the email, I still go read it on the board. LOL.

I personally don't get digests from any of the other boards I'm on, and I'm not sure if they're an option - I could see it being handy for thread play. Maybe make it an option to either do the individual emails or a digest hourly or something?

So, to reiterate, for me personally: Every DM gets an email.

I'm mostly just thinking out loud, though. XD I figure doing so can't hurt, right?
@Mahz As a note from a 1x1 role-player, most of our RPs take place over PMs, so having emails for any "post" in that section would be a nice feature.


This. I only 1x1 in PMs, and the lack of email notifications is rough. I'd love to get an email notification for any DM, not just new threads. :)
Bump.
