Oh boy oh boy oh boy

I was pre-Guildfall. I had experienced Free, Casual, Advanced, and 1x1 before the site crashed and only recently came back (like a month ago or something). That said, this opinion may be outdated (5 years outdated) but it is mine and it holds the reasons why I do not meddle with most of this site.

I participated in 1 free RP and it was hell. I had barely made my character and the rp was already well on its way on the adventure of which by the time I was ready, was 5 pages long (it had been active for maybe 12 hours). I tried politely stepping out, giving up my spot, and was hammered by other players demanding why I felt I was better than them. I hadn't even posted; I was so overwhelmed and couldn't keep up with the pace. It was so chaotic, I had no idea what was what or who was who or even what the goal was anymore. But I was the asshole for leaving and got chewed out. So. Never again.  

I spent most of my time in causal and met the greatest people there, participated in the best rps with imaginative worlds. It is the best place, in my opinion. I have not returned because I can't handle a group RP right now. My time is limited and I need it for items I've committed to already. 

Advanced is filled with elitists. I tried joining some rps to "play with the big boys" so I can improve my writing (you can improve only so much with others on the same level as you, I felt the need to challenge myself) and was rejected many times and most in not-so-nice ways that really killed my confidence in writing. So, [s]f*ck advanced[/s] never again. I took some classes and courses instead to improve my writing. 

I live and breathe in 1x1s now. But I'm rather choosy and tend to go to you rather than set up an advertisement. It is a mixed bag, though, and you have to set up boundaries, limitations, and expectations right off the bat. That said, I have a few people who I love to RP with and tend to go to them first with ideas before I branch out to new (new to me) players. 

I have had no experience with other parts of the site and have little interest in them.
