My written roleplay experience on instant messengers and forums extends back to the earliest creative works I had actually had. It has consistently been one of my few lifelong hobbies and is one of the few, rare elements that has remained with me, even where memory has in part failed. It is pretty novel to have been able to see all of the evolution in the genre as I know it with times and even reflect on some of the now famous nostalgia such as early messenger systems or even using emails to draft and send posts, replies, or plot.
