I think the problem is that as a GM your responsibility is to set up a living story that your players feel involved in. Of course I only speak for myself but your first IC post seems to be more along the lines that you are a player waiting for the GM to tell you how everything goes. 

In my opinion this post is difficult to respond to as it is not exactly a well written first post. I feel that the very beginning of an RP should set the mood or tone. Give us an idea of the general goings on of the land, or perhaps a problem or event that everyone happens to be involved in. While yours seems little more than you writing your character's story and expecting us to play along or be part of it with little to no incentive. 

Context and descriptiveness are key. If you wish to be a GM, and of course, this is still just my opinion. You must detach yourself from simply playing a character and make us all feel immersed in the world or story that you create. 

Any thoughts anyone?
