If it's a reference to Mechaquest, then it's an unintentional one. As friend Rafale says, GEARs was the RP I ran before the Forum imploded. It was loosely based on a blending of elements from the tactical tabletop RPG Heavy Gear, and the comic series and RPG Albedo, as well as elements of various mecha anime. You're certainly welcome to join in, of course!I'm currently writing up a background, along with other useful info, I won't get it up tonight, but probably tomorrow evening (GMT) though no guarantees!

MechQuest is a online RPG that I play, its basicly a turn based mech combat game with a Ok plot and some amusing weapons, but oddly addicting. the University in it is called GEARs university, there's also anthro ailiens and a evil otherworldy space force comeing to kill everyone as well. so I kinda saw the parallels quite quickly.
