So...

Welcome.

Over here people usually have one profile and set up multiple role plays with various characters. Members usually start up an interest check as a sort of advertisement page for the roleplay, and then launch the roleplay soon after.

Seen a few of you guys migrate over. Newbies are always welcomed.

Notification. Bio Edit.

Wasn't quite sure if I should post here or if there was someplace else I just wasn't finding.

Didn't see anywhere, as there is very limited things to edit for your account. But is there an option for email notifications? I've tried looking around and was unable to find anything.

And for my second question, "To prevent spam, you must make at least one forum post before you can update your bio, and you must set an avatar. Consider making a thread in the Introduce Yourself forum to say hi!" I have posted in the introduce yourself board as well as a rp search board but am still unable to edit my bio. Is there something I'm missing?

On your profile page next to your name, there is an edit button. Within this section you can edit custom titles, avatars, and signature images.

In your profile page, down under the status update, should have another edit for your Bio. It's not much but can be customized like your posts. A few people have some fancy designs so be sure to check them out.

Lastly, Mahz was working on Email notifications but hadn't got around to finishing it. He's been pretty busy with his personal life so it'll come around when it comes around. In the meantime you can use the subscriptions which will notify you of any new posts as soon as you visit the site.

Is this Ethical?

An alt account isn't necessarily a problem and many people do have one. Most of the time I see them as Pen Name for those who either wanna join a Free RP and not be bothered on their original account, or for 1x1 situations where they can remain anonymous (mostly for smut I gather).

In regards to joining your own roleplay, I can see that playing both positively and negatively depending on what the intention is.

Positive:
- You can play a character in your own RP without others guessing it's you. This could work well for mystery RPs where you, the GM, can work with yourself to kill off a character or make a character look like the villain and it will appear as a brilliantly planned moment with a player.
- You can use it as a combined account between GMs.
- It can make your RP feel bigger than what it is, eg: 5 players instead of 4.

Negative:
- Difficult to keep up with multiple accounts.
- Some players may not like the GM artificially inflating their own RP.
- A good GM can work with multiple characters anyway and it's their RP, so any characters should work just fine under the GMs name.

It's odd cause I'm looking at it and I don't really see any positives, but at the same time I don't see any negatives. The only thing it does is just use up time in remembering which character to post as and under which account, plus you'll need to ensure you post regularly or others will think you dropped.

PM Inbox Total

@Faded Memory saw this a few days ago and been wondering how any troubleshooting ways that may resolve it. What you could try is un-deletimg all your messages (an option inside your trash folder) and see what turns up. There could have been a message that didn't get moved over and somehow created a number issue.
