Welcome to gamersplane.com!
[ +- ] Tiny Invitation
I have been here a bit and thought I could help out some of the newcomers. I created a campaign, A Tiny Intro, for people new to the site, RPG, and/or play by post. Games looking to recruit can be checked out in the Tavern, including my game.
The campaign is in a fantasy setting and uses TinyD6, a rules lite system that is simple and quick to learn. I typically bring players into the game on their own, though may group them if multiple start at the same time, and walk you through some of the site and TinyD6 mechanics. This lets you post as much or as little as you like. If you are interested you can apply to the game here or just message me. Once you have played through the intro you are welcome to stick around a while, move on, or even help with GMing other newcomers.
If not, no worries, I'll see you around.

PsyberMagi runs the TinyD6 game as an intro to PbP and you don't need to know anything about it to get started. It's a simple system and way easy to learn. PsyberMagi can walk you through everything you need to know about it. Give it a try!

@WanderOne No worries on the system, it is simple and quick to learn. It is all for fun, so do what is comfortable.
Thanks for the endorsement and clarification @witchdoctor

Hello @WanderOne
I want everyone on GP to have a great PBP experience, and I’d love for you to enjoy it to the fullest as well. Based on your posts so far, I’m concerned that this format might not be clicking for you yet.
PBP is a unique format where descriptive writing and deeper character development really shine. Unlike a fast-paced table session, you have time to craft thoughtful responses that build the story collaboratively with the group. However, your posts so far I have seen, have been quite brief and it is starting to set a trend of what to expect from you.This particular hobby isn’t about writing long, elaborate novels in every post, but it does require a certain level of engagement to keep the story moving and enjoyable for everyone. Players here contribute actively to the narrative rather than just reacting or rolling dice.
I hope you will take this critique in the Christmas spirit it was given. If you make an effort and change the trend, I think you will get into more games and eventually have a good time.

Smile. Below runekyndig is my first game post.
Not being in too much of a wanting hurry and if they have a sweet camp site then all the better. Current weather looks fine and he has something to throw down and lay on to rest a shade. But some tasty dinner would be what one wants. Lots of traveling makes one rather lean. Simple him really would so much like to stride to the next available village. Traveling is adventure but he really isn't a man of the wilds. Besides he doesn't procure any coin if he is just walking.
Wondering Cords decides a fast looksie and that wouldn't hurt or take so much traveling time. He is simple and will investigate the tracks as he cares not to search a bit for higher point to view besides surely, they wouldn't have traveled far. He is still thinking it is rather strange occurrence. He does however expect to arrive onto the cart very soon enough. Surely, they wouldn't travel a far distance. They probably just went a bit further to find a nice camping spot is all. Nothing like a nice moon lite walk later if it comes to that.
He would be very much happier if he smelled something cooking on a fireside. As his ever-hungry tummy reminds him that he needs to fill it some. Everyone hates dry rations. Besides he doesn't have anything to wash them down really. He thinks that if this side trip might ruin a nice warm bed in a comfy inn. He will survive as always and of course grumble. Traveling hardship is nothing new to an experienced traveler. Perhaps someday he will invest in a lazy man's horse. He muses himself. That and purchase a nice hat to keep the sun more at bay.
Thanx for the advice.
