A friend of mine once told me that 'it's only ego if you can't back it up'. Too many people like to confuse confidence for arrogance -- there's a big difference.

Not to get all psychological, but some people are actually just 'wired' to take things people say literally. I'm like that to an extent, but I've learned that people here are usually just shitposting.

Happy Anniversary, Ailyn. Six years ago, you gave me a kindred soul, and brought light into a life which for all intents and purposes had been mostly nothing but darkness.

Valentine's Day's bittersweet when you've endured a long-distance relationship for over five years. Here's to celebrating the strength of a meaningful bond, instead of taking a shallow and easy path.

This bio will get reconstructed once I've left the site for good. I'll be collecting my data in the background for now, and sorting some loose ends. I'll be on and off to do it, so don't think I'm back if you see me around. Once I've dealt with everything, I'll log out properly and remove my 'ghost' status, and that'll be the last this site sees of me. This community is in serious need of growing up, and I'm not the least bit surprised that role-plays die here so frequently.

The 'Grim Reaper's Gambit' role-play is likely to reboot elsewhere eventually. The role-play will have some modifications, so contact me if you're curious since the original project won't accurately explain everything. There's no determined date for it to happen yet, since I've got other priorities and I'm not investing a lot of time in it until enough of the people interested have free time to properly commit (lack of dedication on the part of some players practically destroyed the previous version; it's very apparent it would've died even if I hadn't decided to leave). There's a group that're quite interested, but most of them are busy.

Anyway, come back later for an update later -- or don't; it's your life.

Contact Details

Tell me who you are or I possibly won't accept the request, since I assume most requests are bots.
Yes, people who I rarely/never spoke to - or who never met me - while I was still here are welcome.
No, those who disrespected me (and aren't sorry) while I was here or are trolls/immature in general aren't welcome.
Also, keep in mind that not all of these are currently being used actively, so friend request replies might be delayed on some of them.

Playstation Network (PSN): Shoryu_Magami
(I'm fairly easy to contact through here, though I'm not really gaming much due to my main project's workload.)

Discord: Shoryu Magami#4323
(Unlike Skype, I primarily text chat on this instead of voice chat. It's currently one of the easiest ways to find me. It causes my PC a lot of problems though.)

Skype: solitaryangel1983
(Usually running on my phone, mostly so I can talk to my fiancé, so it's easy to find me here. I've currently got no access to it on PC. It might take a while to see requests.)

Facebook: James Koutsoukis - Shoryu Magami
(Barely ever on this, but it exists. Mostly exists so @Ailyn Evensen can list me as her fiancé. You'll find me easily on messenger if you add me, but I don't do much else.)

Yahoo IM: shoryu_magami
(Does this even still exist anymore? It used to be my main method of text chat, but it's not on my current PC.)

Exactly. I didn't so much join the site because I want to use role-play to build my writing ability, but more that the huge workload of notes is very demoralizing and I felt like I needed a place to get involved in some actual writing for now so I could actually enjoy... well... writing again. I did have the option to create my own forum and role-play using my project's setting with my circle (since they're big followers of my project), but I sort of just joined this site on a whim instead. Been a weird few months since, both for good and bad reasons.

I answered the question you asked in an edit in my last post.

I'm sure you wouldn't be either, if the back and forth between us right now is anything to go off. I understand that some people have issues with other people seeing their work, but it's not something I've personally ever been able to relate to. The only reason I'm not showing people on this site content from my main story project is because - as it currently stands anyway - all of it's in draft phase at best -- what little of it's actually written up that is, since I've still got too many notes to sort through before official writing takes place.

Edit: Ah, that. Honestly, I'd never seen anything like it when I joined this site either. Basically, it's a place you can put up a role-play idea you want to pitch so people can actually tell you if they'd be interested in it or not. Some people prefer to confirm there's interest before taking the time to make a detailed and thorough OOC about the role-play. I sort of ignored this concept though, since my own interest check was really in-depth.

Yeah, I know a lot of people who grew up with technology, so it does seem like the fact that I was born anything from five to ten years before them played a big part in the difference. If you'd prefer privacy, then the PM system would probably be your best bet until you're actually comfortable with the idea of anyone being able to see your work. I personally don't care who sees mine, but then I tend to have a history of not caring what other people think period.

(Yeah, we'll see what happens. Overall, I just need to get my priorities back on track again, and while I wanted this site to help with that it's definitely becoming more of a hindrance as time goes on, even if I'm meeting some decent people.)

I only got introduced to the internet a little over ten years ago (I'm thirty-three), so talking over text is foreign to me to some extent, especially considering I never had a mobile phone or anything growing up. That being said, I get what you mean about preferring conversations to be private and such, or at the very least just confidentially between you and people you trust. That's one of the reasons I prefer to create forums instead of join them -- they're usually invite-only.

I figured it wouldn't hurt to send the PM, so it's out of the way -- completely out of date though, given that it was rushed for that last role-play and then I decided not to take part due to a combination of reasons (including it looking like it was going nowhere).
In Good morning → 10 yrs ago Forum: Introduce Yourself
@Foxymew

Same, to an extent. I prefer to speak with people rather than write, mostly because I think I can get my points across a lot better in discussion than over text. I don't associate with too many people in person though, so this usually involves things like Skype and such. Not so much because I'm shy (I'm really not -- like I said, if anything I'm too blunt for my own good) or have problems talking with people directly, but just because I tend to be something of a loner... sort of.

The button is helpful indeed. Also, if you're wondering about BBCode, there's a 'cheatsheet' at the bottom of the page, but it doesn't have everything and my friend @tsukune made a much better thread containing all of that information.

Neither am I, to be honest with you -- I still avoid forums as a general rule, because I don't really like social media and whatnot, but figured I'd need to join somewhere if I planned to network with people. I've had a really rough experience with a lot of forums I've given a chance, and I'm something of a nomad when it comes to sites. I've actually been on this site for a lot longer than I'd usually stick around on a forum that I didn't create personally, and even now I don't know how long I'll stick around. Probably gonna let the outcome of my upcoming role-play decide that to an extent.

You picked up the [ @Mention ] feature quickly (I pretty much used it on you to let you know it's there, if you didn't know), so I think you'll get used to things fine.

Welcome to RPGuild.

Honestly, I appreciate people who're straightforward since I'm pretty damn infamous for being forthright with people. I didn't have any problem understanding your English either, so - like my soul devouring robot friend/enemy/friendenemy/rival/associate/whateverthefuckyouareman just said - you're good on that front too.

Edit: Hadn't seen your reply before posting, but eh it was funny anyway -- forgot to ping him though.

(A few of my friends only joined this site because I did, and actually would probably prefer I just go ahead with the original plan a few months ago of making a role-play forum devoted to my main project instead of remain here. Chances are, if my role-play doesn't go so well, I'll just do that. I've mostly made enough of an impression here, and met some decent people. I just don't see a point sticking around if role-playing doesn't work out.)
