Greetings all!

So, as most of you can notice, I'm new here. I have a lot of rpg knowledge and experience from real life and other play by post sites (but for respect of this "infant" board - I'm bold enough to call it that, and most seems to agree - I won't start advertising anything). Point is: I wanted to try something new, so an interactive and dynamic free form game sounded fun. (Found the site through YouTube, btw).

On to the questions:

Species: I saw the argument about the site being fairly new and thus you wanted restrictions on the number of species people could choose from. It's a fair argument, but we are missing out on key species here: Bothan, Cerean, Duros, Kel Dor, Mon Calamari, Quarren, Rodian, Sullustan, Trandoshan, Zabrak. And even Gungans or Gamorreans. Considering species such as Kiffar and Clawdite are allowed, stretching as far as Miraluka, Cathar and Aqualish seems like fair game if they're compared. I don't mean to sound rude or anything, though, just wondered a little about the choices. I've yet to decide my species at this point.

Jed/Sith and devotion to the site: So... What defines devotion to the site? It seems to be a post rate and quality/interest point of view. But after reading numerous threads I'm not quite sure how, excactly, it's handled. Personally I have a quality over quantity in terms of post count. I'm obviously asking because I want to explore the possibility of playing a Force-User. In fact, the concept I immediatly started developing in my head when first learning about the site was some kind of person living all by himself. Then I figured he could be a hunter, but decided he only hunted for food, not a living, and immediatly evolved the idea of some kind of Force user, either a Jedi in hiding, a Force Warrior or Adept of some kind, a Matukai or a member of the Zeishon Sha. To say the least, that idea didn't last overtly long ;) (but I still would like to explore that concept over any other).

So, if failing that (I'm kinda preparing for that), I have two options: Another concept, or sticking to the hermit in the woods (or wherever) and just see where it goes. Then there's the back-up concept: An interstellar trader honing the art of the deal. Both would provide a profession problem... (the trader a cross between Business and Smuggler, the hermit...?)

And there you have it. Ideas evolving into questions and more questions, inquiries and problems... (and then utter disaster) :lol: :rolleyes: Nah, just kidding.



[As some quick or frequent forum users might have noticed, I happened to post/edit this thread twice or thrice before finishing it. I found out that the PLAY button on my multimedia keyboard - it's a HP Pavilion dv Notebook - triggered the forum's post function. It has never happened before, and I frequent a few boards with this code. I'm not sure where the error is, probably with my browser, I'll check, but the site administrators might want to look into it nevertheless]
