Hey

[Dingbat]

I guess I just need to do some bits and pieces, so hey

[Admin Dirk]

welcome!

a bit here, a piece there, and you'll be shed of your yellow/gold new player status soon.

What brought you here? What game systems do you like? I am a PF guy, although I am playing a couple 3.5 games again lately.

Happy gaming!

Hi, Dingbat! Bits and pieces and pretty soon you'll have yourself an entire RPG robot! Welcome to the site! What types of games are you wanting to play? What's your favorite RPG to date?

Welcome, Dingbat! Your avatar reminds me of the beginning of Neuromancer. Good times .

I hope you enjoy the site and good luck with your game applications!

Howdy Dingbat,

I can't believe that name is still available. Nice catch there.

As an introduction, I'm a D&D 5e player, but I also love L5R, King Arthur Pendragon, GURPS, and RuneQuest. Tell us a bit more about yourself. Which RPGs system(s) do you plan to play here? As I mentioned, we have a lot of RPG systems from which to choose and we're willing to teach. How about genre, do you prefer high magic, low magic, historical fiction, high tech, horror, sci fi/future tech, etc.? Do you have a favorite character class, race? Do you know how much wood a woodchuck chucks, if a woodchuck, could chuck wood?

There are a lot of choices for various RPG systems here, although PF and D&D are the two most common. We have quite a few games with very long legs here. In fact, I talk about one below. To start, you may want to check out a solo game. This will help you learn the site tools, since each site is a bit different.

As far as finding games goes, try here. This is where there are games seeking players. It can be a bit daunting but don't give up. It may take a few applications before you get accepted...but it's worth it once you're in. This is a great place to scratch your RPG itch and interact with some great DMs and players. There is some incredible role playing going on here. I thought I was a pretty good story teller, but I have been put to shame by the quality of many of the players...and I have learned a lot.

This is a place where the people are welcoming, where the games are interesting, and where generally they only expect you to post a few times a week. I've been playing D&D for a very long time and I thought I've seen it all, but this site has some amazing games going on. I've been playing (storytelling as much as rolling) for a few years now in a game that has been going on continuously for four decades, started tabletop and moved online two decades ago. It's set in an alternate Europe where the worlds of Tolkien and Howard existed in ages past. So there is a hint of LOTR and a hint of Conan in it and since it's set in an alt Europe it somehow feels familiar.

This is just one example and there are other great campaigns on RPGX. You should take some time to "stroll around" the site and see if anything catches your eye.

I hope to see you around on the boards.

‘Allo and Welcome Dingbat!

Grab a drink, some snacks, and have fun exploring the site. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone will be more than happy to answer them.

Goodday Dingbat,

Thank you for signing up, how did you find us and what made you sign up? (some PR questions, hehe ;-)
Since I am rather inelegantly late to the welcoming party, how have you been doing so far? Already writing and playing?
