Yup. Just doing some lurking myself. Been really busy/lazy. Finally did laundry though it's irritating that I needed to spend three loads worth of coins for the dryer. Here we got a coin operated machine and for some reason it's eating quarters like crazy and not drying my clothes. Oh and also check out the Frontier interview that was done by NcrVet with the Frontier Dev Weijiesen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN-yA5pclqU

And I assume that it will be published to Nexus upon release. Though that's still a long ways away, but the project is proceeding well.

Nice. Well, welcome ^ ^ Guilds pretty nice. I haven't met many jackasses, and only one major troll, and I think all his accounts were banned. Haha.
What kind of RPing do you do? Favourite genre? Have you been writing long?

Did the same when I started so it's only natural.

Pretty much got sick of the RP section I used on an Anime forum due to terrible contribution and people loving to godmod, so I pretty much left and wandered about looking at different forums until I came across here. :)

@CarantathraielYeah everyone's been nice so far. Idk, I'm kind of all over the place with my tastes sometimes, depends on my mood I guess. I usually prefer modern or sci-fi stuff tho. I've only been writing creatively in my spare time for a couple years now.

@NuttsnBoltsHaha wow. I've had to deal with that before, sometimes it makes me lol hard when I'm watching them fight someone else who is getting pissed and sometimes it frustrates me to no end when my character has to deal with it. I guess it won't be too bad here since there are official GMs for threads. The most RPing I've done is in chatrooms where you can't really force one person to leave if they're being annoying.

You get someone that's a good GM and they'll ensure that the RP flows well. It also helps with the structure of the OOC, IC and Character tabs so that it feels more formal and easier to see who each character is.

Currently the only RP I'm in is one with @Daxam which seems to be a mix of a cyberpunk world and demonic/angelic themes (It's currently full btw), but it seems to be going pretty well. Hardest part I'm having at the moment is trying to write a story for my character which isn't up to much at the moment so it's just me extending a few events until something happens, but when it does I'm gonna have a lot of fun. xD

Best thing I find is just browse for a few days and maybe PM the GM if you're not sure about an RP. There's new ones rising up fairly often so if you don't see one this week, maybe check it out in a few days and a new one may turn up.

@NuttsnBoltsThanks for the advice, I've been lurking on a couple threads lately. There's one advanced RP I'm thinking about trying but mmm.... idk if I'm up to par for advanced yet, even tho I'd like to try. Maybe I'll just PM the GM like you suggested.

Almost entered a 1x1 but the other person had some things come up and wasn't able to set aside the time for it. Not to worry.

Ah, advanced... It's nothing difficult. It comes down to how big your posts are and how much freedom there is in letting things slide.

- Free is 1-2 lines of text with general plot
- Casual is a couple paragraphs with general plot that allows for a bit of freedom
- Advanced is just longer posts that extend over several paragraphs with a focus on story, history/lore and usually in depth

It's nothing difficult but it comes down to what your ability is. Generally most people will end up in casual as it has the largest population.

I spit out between casual and advanced, depending on the rp. I can get long winded, I just prefer to keep the story moving and to the point. I'm a fast writer, so I'd rather the posts move fast
