About Me

I'm a roleplayer by night, but by day I'm a software engineer. I have been programming in some capacity since I was eight, and once I discovered programming I simply never stopped writing code. Some of that code I've written was for this very website, and maybe some day I'll add some more. However, most of my work is done in boring corporate land.

I discovered programming in a game called ROBLOX, and coincidentally that is also where I first discovered roleplaying. One day I was exploring the forums, and noticed a roleplaying section. Curious, I took a look and I was instantly hooked. The content was mostly in the Free RP level, with a small amount of Casual tier games, but at the time even that was high quality content to me. Over the years my interest in the game faded, and although I continued programming after ultimately leaving the community, I did not continue roleplaying.

Years later, I gradually started wanting to get back into roleplaying. I began googling around, and after looking at a few different websites I finally decided that the Guild seemed to be the best of them all. I made an account on December 13, 2014, and started jumping into some games; I quickly decided on sticking to mostly High Casual, but eventually moved more towards Advanced as I realized that most of the games I was in were easily at that level anyway. This was right around the time that Mahz was working on rebuilding the website from the ground up, and after chatting with him for a while in the IRC during some site downtime I decided that I wanted to help.

I ultimately didn't contribute too much, but nevertheless I was the first (and so far, only one of two?) non-anonymous users to help Mahz with developing the website. As a reward, after he implemented the trophy system I was awarded the special Benevolent Cyberpunk trophy, which gives me a special userbit that looks like this:

I have an interview tomorrow for a year-long (training would start during the summer) paid internship doing tech support for a local company. So, not bad I guess.

...But I have to do an essay for English. Not so nice.

UPDATE: Essay done hastily and (probably) somewhat poorly, now I can worry about just the interview! \o/
Also works for me.
I'm doing well. I have an interview soon for a (paid ) internship (basically IT guy), 15 school days left (shit, I'm almost a senior!!!), etc etc.

Obviously with the circumstances we are under no rush (besides, I know none of you will be going anywhere), but do (either of? I forget who we do and don't have sorted already tbh) you know when you might be able to get your sheets done? I mean, with how loyal this group is, we could wait all summer for all I care but the sooner the better of course.
Just gonna pop in for a quick check in. How are you all doing?

Perhaps a solution to new users "running out" of posts on small things like declaring interest in an rp would be to add a system where the poster of an interest check can see who is subscribed to their post? That way the x posts per y minutes wouldn't be wasted on saying they're interested, and could instead be used for asking questions about the rp, posting sheets, etc.

This might be making it too complicated though, when a finetuned x per y system would probably work fine in most cases
My adventures consist of sitting in front of a computer all day for a week, thanks to spring break.

And also sadness because spring break = school is almost over = I'm almost a senior = a metric fuck ton of college applications, financial aid applications, etc. = almost out of high school = almost not a kid anymore = fuuuuuck.

But mostly enjoying the week off.

Looks like I missed out on a good argument. I'd put my 2 cents in, but the argument has finally died out and I see no reason to restart it.
