Some of us happen to like drama and getting punched* in the feels.
*or stabbed.
Knowing when to let your character die is important.
-Knowing how to do it well, is just awesome.

I do agree with Yandere's sentiment that words not wording workingly do be a problem this time of year.

Scratch that, place your bets on polymarket.

Looks like I'll be working on memorial day weekend. And no, this does not mean place any bets on polymarket.

due to a typo on my part I was nearly convinced I owed the IRS nearly $3000 in excess taxes this year.

Bio
-There will be delays in replies. Largely due to working overtime, voluntary obligations; other RPs and online-things may compete for my attention.
'Bout me:
Started RPing (badly) back in '05, mostly doing nation-RPs with an emphasis on technology and strategy, later edging out to character-espionage and military-tactics before doing "less serious" character roleplays that were outside of the 2005-2008 continuity.
That's when I went to Dead-Frontier, and found the RP community there, joined a clan, did some pretty good roleplays and pretty much loosened-up my online-personality. When the clan-leader decided to move her RPs here, most of the clan followed.
Took a course in technical-writing back in '08, so now I may sometimes use the semicolon correctly.
In 2010 I dusted off the old nation-RP continuity I had, doing a few hetelia-esque RP-shenanigans there..
RP-Habbits: I tend to geek-out on little technical-details, and sometimes infer how those details would impact the background of the roleplay. Great for world-building, not so great when you had a perfectly good plotline and I just MacGyver it off the rails (though I usually er to the side of amusement, sometimes it creates very grim side-stories).

WHY DID YOU LEAVE?!
Grand Emperor Harsh did not give you permission to leave.
*Reads.
-Oh, well, that excuses everything, carry-on then.

Uh, hello I guess.
The community here generally isn't toxic to most topics, so far as you don't post something that forces google to pull its ads (and therefore, funding) again.

Um, Miani was asking 'bout RPs to join.
I guess that depends on how many peeps you want involved, and the general plot/theme you can identify with.
For quickness, some people base their RPs off shows for a ready-made yet profoundly complicated theme.
-Either way, the plot generally needs to be tailor-made to fit the players.

May not want to limit yourself to a single character.
The more zany stuff they survive, the more likely they'll go crazy, this was deconstructed quite well in the movie "The last action hero".
-This is particularly true since here we jump from advanced sci-fi, to intelligent-critters, to medieval fantasy.

From TvTropes:
• Deconstruction: A fascinating form of it: While most action tropes are simply lampshaded to the point of lunacy when Danny is dropped into "Jack Slater IV", when the characters are turned loose into the Real World, Reality Ensues.
In one moving scene, still inside the movie world, Jack Slater reveals that under his Deadpan Snarker typecasting he's mostly just tired after repeatedly surviving implausible, stressful scenarios while everyone around him dies. Among other things, he's got a cashier at his drug store calling him at the police station so that his colleagues think he has a life and make everyone think his ex-wife still cares about him (she's remarried and moved on), and he's deeply depressed that his Action Girl daughter Whitney skipped her prom to field-strip an AK-47 (he fears she'll grow up alone). This is a side of Slater that Danny was shocked to see, but nevertheless, he was able to get him out of this funk to continue the action of the movie.
Jack: I just want to be a good cop! Instead I keep getting caught up in these crazy adventures
/me hides the motor-scooters.
Work in progress:
History probably isn't going to be super-relevant, but yeah, I'm dredging some old characters for this.

Hm... what occupation to start with?
Also, Tom Clancy is trying to Americanize Metro 2033
^General premise is a RL scenario of DarkWinter contingency plans of '01-'07 occurring on Black Friday. (incidentally, many post-apoc stories base their narrative on its findings) Ofc, the blackout (and later the reaction to 9/11) refuted many of those finds.
The world needs a garbage-man. I'm it.

Hello, I'm not new to this site, but I was here before the complete reset. So I came back after a long break from it. It's been over a year since I've been on this site and I had to recreate my account due to the major hack. Hello people!
Oh hi.
As you can tell, various people tried continuing a few TWD RPs.
In other news, the guild has cracked down on the level of smut permitted.
Also, would anyone care to inform me of who Mr Burke was in Fallout?
So I don't have to worry about your guys running around faster than an F-22 can even fly, bench-pressing my tanks whenever my back is turned and shrugging-off 105mm tank-shells to the face?
Bofors, in '92
I also picked the WZ-131A for its exceptional cross-country mobility.
The RBS-70 is odd that it's a beam-rider, meaning it never ever really illuminates the target, so no guided-weapon firing signature to activate an APS (just as well, the only thing to disable its guidance is to destroy the missile, or the launch-unit). Newer itineration allow for gated proximity fuzing, so it can indeed hit treetop helicopters, or alternately airburst inside a room.
Meanwhile, Russia (and later China) developed gun-launched beam-riding monsters. But I figured a 35mm remote-operated AA-mount (also gated-prox using a laser rangefinder) was enough.
And holy crap, grenade-fuzing is lulzy.
