Hi all long time PbP player coming back to the fold. Most games I have played, most character concepts I have played, and at this point I am just looking mainly for a game that will last as I am aware that PbPs can be a bit here today gone tomorrow -- in the past I outlived almost every GM I played under and numerous players when I was the GM.

What I end up doing is completely up to the GM as I am a roleplayer and there as been many a time I stepped in to fill a lost players shoes because the character was kind of integral to things thus far. I have also created characters from scratch but I like 3D characters when I do this which requires the GMs input as the world they are running is that 3rd-Dimension.

I have played numerous systems over the years and can step into just about any gaming system out there and for those that I do not know I learn exceptionally quick but those are just the crunchy bits and again if I get a chance to do solid roleplaying those crunchy bits become secondary -- but I will not do complete freeform as without structured-guides and a-bit-of-randomness the game does not feel much like a game so even if secondary those crunchy bits are important.

Hope to see you around -- and I really really hope this is not one of those forums where everyone has to addition for a game because I have yet to find a GM that does that to be even worth that level of effort.

Welcome to the community, DeJoker! Glad to have you! We have plenty of folks here (both GMs and players) who love to roleplay. I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding a game to your liking.

Don't forget to check out the New GP Member Guide.

New games are always popping up. If you watch the Games Tavern I'm sure you'll find one in no time!

We'd love to have you join us on the Discord server as well for real time chat about the site, RPGs in general, and just about anything!

Happy gaming!

Welcome to the site!
As is the tendency with PBP games, a lot of them die eventually but I have found some long running games on here so if you apply to a couple of games, you will find lasting ones.

Some GMs ask for character concepts and choose players based on those but in my experience, most games here are first come, first serve.

Welcome again and happy gaming!

It's true, I am in multiple games that have been running for years and still going strong!

Also we have plenty of GMs who are more than "worth that level of effort."
