IAmKnight The Roleplay Refugee

Member Seen 4 yrs ago
Hello, to all of the guild.
IAmKnight, and I have joined because one of my favourite forums for roleplaying has virtually died, and I miss roleplaying. I roleplayed since I was a kid on that forum, and now I hold the burdens of Uni, so it's been quite a long run.
The forum was already dead a while ago, but of course I was in denial. I have finally accepted its fate, and here I am!

I usually participate in casual roleplays or advanced. Free roleplays I rarely visit.
Looking forward to joining the guild!

Hah, yeah I had guessed someone would mention the username. And yeah, I suppose it's to this forum's benefit, so the sooner I start the better, huh?
Though, the layout of this forum is entirely different to what I'm used too. For my old forum, we just made an OOC thread and players would post character applications in there. How's it work here?

You make a thread and it has an IC, an OOC and a Character tab. Usually you place your character sheet in the OOC and then if the GM accepts it you put it in the Character tab. Some have different rules, but this is your safest bet.

I looked around some more and thought the same thing. Thanks for confirming!

@JELDare
One thing I noticed is a lot of casual roleplay threads have their character names coloured and huge at the top, and the speech coloured in the same colour. Is this like a thing here? I'll get used to it, but it's totally foreign to me haha

If I'm honest I've come back from a couple year hiatus about a month ago and this is the first time I've seen it. I personally do not do it unless everyone else is, but I think it's personal preference.

It's really a personal preference like @JELDare stated. There are some roleplays that ask you to do it though, but most of the time you're able to just get away with not having any color. For me, it's just easier to see what's being said and by whom it is being said by.

Nonetheless, welcome to the guild, hope you find something for your liking soon!
