Stay away from rabid RPers.... they chew on fingers and toes and leave the best bits behind. Seriously. Stick to face huggers or some other manner of more monster-like monstrosities. You know, the ones who take themselves and their place in the world seriously. As they should.
Welcome to the guild, Tail (^w^)/ I hope you enjoy your stay! As for advice, hmmm, check out the interest checks if you're looking to join a RP. There are a ton scattered throughout the site, so I'm sure you'll eventually find one that piques your interest.
