The following presentation has been approved for mature audiences only.
Hello! I'm Gullinkambi, rooster of the apocalypse and 80s vapourwave enthusiast, if you couldn't tell with all the Hotline Miami artwork and synthwave music. If 'Gullinkambi' is too much of a mouthful for you, you can call me Gull, Kambi, Jacket, or any other appropriate nickname. E.g; 'Aesthetic Bitch'.

I've been in the roleplaying biz for about 2 and a half years, though it's much closer to 5 or 6 if you count shitty things like ROBLOX and Google+. Yeah. Well, at least it wasn't Facebook, am I right?

Despite the amount of time I've been roleplaying, I still don't consider myself a very good roleplayer. My friends say that I'm a good writer, yet mediocre roleplayer, which I'm beginning to come to terms with. As such, I'm always open to constructive criticism and any form of tips to help me improve. I typically join roleplays at the level of Casual and Advanced, but I typically stick to Advanced, given that I end up taking 5 years to write a post because I never think they're good enough. I've already gone through 2 or 3 drafts for this introduction post, if that gives you any idea as to how many I scrap for IC posts. Hint: it's usually in the double digits.

I have a bizzare obsession with italics, though I guess it's a lot better than constantly SCREAMING EVERYTHING IN CAPS. I've always hated that way of emphasising text. It's up there with using underline text for emphasis. Gah. Anyways, I'm also fond of using lots of subtle colours for text. If you couldn't tell already, this text isn't purely white. Colour palettes are probably one of my favourite things in the whole world, and, as a fan of the Hotline Miami games, I often enjoy using a lot of pinks, purples and blues. Of course, if it's a genre that isn't 80s ultraviolence, I'll steer away from that palette if it seems inappropriate.

When it comes to other forms of formatting text, indents are often my best friend, especially when I'm in a writing slump and struggle to write as much as my peers. Yay for holding myself to standards I can never reach! I'm also a big fan of 'sup' and 'sub' tags, especially when they're stackable (like they are here!). They always produce really cool and interesting results, in my opinion.

Steering away from roleplaying, as this is also a social forum, how about I help some folks get to know me? I've been told I have a dark humour, akin to a 4channer, though not quite as cancerous. I often fluctuate between many forms of writing when I'm speaking to other people, as I have the overwhelming habit of typing like a pretentious asshat when talking to people I don't know, and then writing with zero capital letters and an abundance of British slang when talking to friends. Oh, and I'm from England. I'm also female, but that doesn't really matter because there are no girls on the internet.

Right, now all that's out of the way, thanks for taking the time to read this (probably) poorly written and unorganised piece of text, and I hope you have a nice day.

PS: No matter how dark my humour gets, puppies will always be my weakness. I fucking love puppies.

We hope that you enjoyed the show.

I so have to comment on this due to my own gender: that is so 'true'. :P

Welcome to the guild and have a nice day, maybe see you around in an rp or two.

Grazie.

And yeah, it's a cool little feature. You can also use them in combination with 'hr' and 'img' tags, in case you don't enjoy the fairly large gap between images and text.

I will gladly enjoy these cucumbers!

Aye, it is. We're all secretly 48 year old men from Somalia.

And thank you! I hope to see you around, too.

Excellent. There's lots of useful ways to format BBcode, and no matter how much our dread overlord @Mahz claims the system is flawed, it can do quite a lot in the right hands. (or paws. Or tentacles.)

Mhm. I'd still prefer if you could also stack alignment tags, so you could have text at the right of an image, instead of it being pushed down to the line below. Think of something akin to Roleplay Gateway's BBCode.

Puppies are the light that destroys all darkness. Those who are not weak to them have no soul.

Also, welcome to the guild ^_^

To be honest, that's probably why they were created; to warm even the darkest of hearts. Cheers!

Greetings @Gullinkambi! You sound like a fun person. Also dark humor and being from England seem like an excellent combination, at least from some of the comedy that I have discovered.

Salve, Fecund! Thank you for your feedback on my personality and nature, and I appreciate the compliment. English humour is, arguably, the best humour out there, after all.

Not being English, we find we have to argue that point.

We would say that no single nation's humor is "best".

Not only does it vary by taste, but the humor from one decade is not the same as the humor from another, let alone when you mix in numerous decades as well.

Eyyy, another fan of synthwave and vaporwave! It's always cool to see other folks into those genres. Hotline Miami and Drive got me into it, and I haven't looked back since. What are some of your favorite artists? I've recently really been getting into Scandroid, The Midnight, and Dance with the Dead. I'm a sucker for the neon pink and blue look, man. So good.

Quite a profound view of things. I'll take it.

Thank you very much, signore. I quite like the cut of my jib, also.

Why yes, I do.

Glad to find another fan, also! And ah man, it's honestly hard to pick a favourite. I think probably M.O.O.N, for definite, then Zombie Hyperdrive, Com Truise, and you can't go wrong with some Perturbator. So glad HM helped me discover such awesome music. I'll definitely check Scandroid and Dance with the Dead out! I'm already a rather big fan of The Midnight.

Perturbator is such high quality consistently that it's astounding. That dude knows his way around a synth soundboard, that's for sure. I don't think I've heard of Zombie Hyperdrive yet, so I'll definitely be looking them up!

No, no. English humour is by far the best. I would know.

I agree so much, man. I don't think there's anyone I know that doesn't like Perturbator.

Also, there's actually a Zombie Hyperdrive song linked at the top of my original post, the text just somehow managed to end up on the image (and, thus, not that visible at a brief glance). The song's called Red Eyes, and it's one of their best, in my opinion. Glad we could share a few of our interests, dude, you should definitely PM me sometime if you want to talk more in-depth!

The pains of formatting. I'd definitely be down for talking more in the future, since taking a quick glance at one post of yours, it seems we're also both in to cyberpunk, which is some Real Good Shit™.
