So, yeah, I'm a newbie. I hate being a newbie. Hatehatehatehate it.
But I started playing this game when it was Steel Blue, and because I was such a newbie, I didn't really get accepted and made no friends. Which sucks, because I like a good RP and I quite like this game.
Anyone want to refresh my memory on how to play the game?
Or just have a general chat?
Either one is cool by me

Welcome back Tsyce.
My advise would be to be as outgoing as your character's personality will allow. Greet people and make friends. Stay in character and avoid smilies. ;)
Expect some of the bitter oldbies; that no longer play any more yet lurk the forum to vent their bitterness; to tell you that there is no RP any more. Don't believe them; they wouldn't know anyway as they no longer play.

Nova, that's why I'm trying to convince Illysia to come back XD But I guess it's a lost cause.
Come on, boy, cheer up. Roleplay around, it's not that bad.

...convince Illysia to come back XD
Oh that train has been approaching for a while now. Rumour has it that there are office pools on whether it is me who burns out or she who eats crow and comes back first. ;D

I'll be your friend.

Don't be Jekkar's friend. Trust me.

Actually, oldbies lament the lack of good RP... we know there is RP. ;) And sorry Mishka, but like I said... not happening. However, to Tsyce, have fun for as long as you can and don't do like Nova and get too involved in the forums... That's partially how those "bitter oldbies" he's forever harping on and on about got started. ;) I can't wait till he becomes one of them without making 2 years. ;D
Remember kids, prolonged forum exposure is bad for you. :sorcerer:

Welcome back Tsyce.
Says the oldbie that still plays and rp's now and then :P
-
Welcome back, and if you run into a Ynnwn that's scared of magic, RP with 'er. ;)

Well, I'm surprised I even got any response to this thread! Thanks for the welcome backs.
This isn't my old account - totally forgot the password, and which of my email addresses it was saved under.
I have some questions, why is there now two servers?
And why is the RP server never working when I go on there?

I shall smite them. How common are they nowadays?

First, welcome back :)
Two servers means one for RP (gonna get my head chopped off for claiming that it is), and one for non-RP; full PvP, uber-1337 names and so on and so forth...
I'm guessing that you've tried to logon at some bad moments, the server isn't that unstable anymore. Or that you haven't update completely and have another servername than Zeroping?
Could be your firewall preventing you from logging on, but then you should be prevented from the non-RP server as well.

A dying breed.

Ah, heh, I've literally just found out the IP address was wrong ><;
Sorted it out now.
Is RP really dead?

Is RP really dead?
That tid bit will likely bring out those that say it is dead as well as those that say it is alive. My advice would be to check things out for yourself and decide. After settling in your opinions would be interesting to hear.

As it stands, there are a few plotlines going on, and Harn's usually has a group or two roleplaying around it.

Ah Tsyce, as jekkar said, i'll be your friend, lol
Normally i dont like to advertise my guild on forum, as i think its cheating :P
But, my guild is a criminal hunting guild, hence Bounty Hunters, but anyway, if thats the kind of RP your looking for, feel free to find me IG :)
-
Welcome back Tsyce, RP isn't necessarily dead, it's just not as strong as the old days. But I am sure there is someone out there that you would be able to become a friend with ICly and even OOCly and have a good RP with them!
Good luck!

Right now there is a very good RP involving necromancing, a lot of us are dealing with right now, so search around hydlaa / ojaveda and you may become involved,
