New here, what do?
Hello, I joined yesterday.
It's a lot of fun to just read all the things everybody had to say but I never really knew how to join - one, since timezones are stupid and two, social anxiety yay.

So. What exactly do you all do here? Aside from rp and drown in memes, of course.
(please drown me in memes, I live for them)
That's pretty much the size of it usually. We sometimes play cards against humanity though that's a thing.
It's primarily role play and memes since most of the discussion happened in the early site, but if you want to discuss something there'll be replies. Also sometimes people, like Hibiki, stream things, though you usually have to be in PM chat to see that, it's also fairly common for them to post a link on the phorums.
Sounds like I'll be perfectly at home here then. But I'll probably stay in the background for the first few weeks, please bear with me x.X
That's fine. I lurked for two days before actually posting anything. Then I asked someone to roast me and the rest is history.
Hey, Nice to meet you, This place was my first Rp, I get the social anxiety thing, I got it too, But I've had so much fun, and made so many friends here. I look forward to meeting you in the future.

Is this your first RP? If so I can link you to the little "How to forum Rp" tutorial that I used.

Just be warned, The main plot is a kinda, complicated, we're trying to fix that though....

Do you have a discord? If you do I can link you to the main OOC chat (which is completely insane) and the lore chat.
If ya new, personally I'd recommend joining us in the PMs. There's a general chatroom along with some others and in my opinion it's a good way to get to know people without being entirely intimidated by the forums. Er, 'scuse me, "Phorums".
As well as maybe talk about games or anime, streams or meeting up in dumb online games, just to have time and create sick memes.

Also yes, I do stream fairly often, usually my favorite anime, Symphogear, or a season of Kamen Rider. You're free to join anytime it's up, don't worry about joining in the middle of something, confusion is half the fun sometimes, and it might help you find something you might wanna look into later. Maybe.
Honestly, just don't worry about the main plot too much. Anything you learn, just learn IC, and don't worry about what's happening otherwise. I mean, that's what I ended up doing and I'm pretty relevant in it.
Pfft, what plot
@Akamoto_Shinji
I don't have a Discord yet but I', planning on making one in the future. Once I get better internet of course. And thanks for the encouragement, I'll look into the RPs on the site tomorrow.
About that tutorial, I think that would be a great help, thank you!

@Hibiki
By PMs, do you mean the beta chat? If so, I haven't gotten it to work just yet, but that's probably because of my aforementioned bad internet connection.
I'd love to join when you stream Symphogear, since it is one of my favorite animes as well (can't wait for AXZ's start in two weeks!). I just hope it's at a time I'm awake because timezones are stupid, ugh.

Congratulations on becoming one of my favorite people on the site.
The plot just kinda catches you and takes you for a ride after a point.

You kinda joined at a weird time because we have like 2-3 plots that are about to hit their climax this week.

Also, we have discords. You should totally join at least the main site one.
But yes I mean the beta chat thing. That sucks, it'd be good to see ya join.
1. Follow rules.
2. Have fun.
3. ??? (Probably sacrifice your first born to keep the Old Gods sated.)
4. Profit!!
The best part of the beta chat is that alpha is in its domain name
So it'll literally never leave alpha oops
Here's the basics,

Here's a link to the whole thing if you wanna get super in depth, I just read the basics personally...

Alright, I'll see if I can get a Discord account running sometime tomorrow and then I'll get back to you all! Thank your for your responses and see you tomorrow!
Better get it memorized.
Oh no.
Like Mig said, it's best to go with the flow. You kinda get a feel for things once you post in a few threads. It's fine if you have no idea what's going on both in and out of character. Others will explain along the way. Although if you're too intimidated, feel free to hang out in PMs.

...I'm a bit late to the party, but welcome anyway!
