seems like your previous experience is pretty much like it is here. I don't know if you used separate threads in different forums, but if you join or start an rp on here, the OOC and character threads are automatically joined with the IC. So no need to make different threads, just one. :]

some of the threads you'll probably enjoy perusing are the "what are you listening to" thread about music, and then there's another thread where they rate music, then there's even another thread where they rate videogame music. I find myself browsing those sometimes. It is a bit slow here, but it's generally pretty active.

Welcome to the guild!

Also, you can't go wrong with communism memes here. They are [i]revered.[/i]
