[nilcrabanjr]

Hello, my username is nilcrabanjr, name is Riley. I don’t really mind what I get called. Found this site after casually looking for non garbage roleplay places and looked super good. I’ve been doing ecopolitical and historical roleplay for a fair while, as well as writing short stories in my spare time. I’m a full time uni student and work full time so my schedule is all over the place but would still like to try my best to get involved. My hobbies mainly revolve around games and history, with software/game dev being the main focus of my degree. Anyway, won’t ramble on for too long. Excited to meet new people and see what stories can happen.

Hello there @nilcrabanjr! Welcome to RPA, we're so glad you joined us! I'm Hannelorian a Roleplay Moderator. Feel free to call me Hanne if you'd prefer. I'll go ahead and go through some common questions here!

Why is your username in yellow?
The yellow tint indicates that you're still a brand new member to the forum community. Note that there are some limitations to your access, such as limited number of PMs (about 2, so you may wish to clear your inbox after you've made your replies.) and the inability to view member profiles.

When will I be upgraded to a full member?
Typically it's about 10 contributing posts, but the quickest path is to simply be active, post and engage with the community. Whether that be in RPs or in our social sections. Go on, say hello!

What's the first thing you should do as a new member?
Take a quick read and familiarize yourself with the rules of our forum. I know, I know, rules already? These rules are straight forward and designed to protect all members of the RPA community. They're for your benefit, I promise!

How do you get to know members of the forum?
Easy! Take a spin through Downtown! This is our social hub, get to know folks through fun and silly games, or join in on a conversation.

Where can you go to talk about your hobbies and interests?
Well that would be our Entertainment section!

Wanna join a new or existing group RP?
Check out this place!

Prefer to start to smaller and hone your skills in a 1 x 1?
This is the place for you.

Whew, with that out of the way...

Feel free to talk to some of the other recent newbies in this section, and don’t be shy about PM-ing one of the moderators or other forum staff if you have a question or need some help finding writing partners. Here's a quick guide to what the colors mean:

Green: RP or Social Mods
Purple: Admin
Blue: Global Mod
Pink: Technical Mod (for site related issues)

Enjoy!
