Newbie Help (Start Here) / Thx to whomever
« on: October 29, 2006, 06:14:40 pm »
I am not sure where to post this at but since I am a noob I thought this would be the place.
First off a little background: I have been playing Pen and Paper D & D for about 23 yrs. In that time I enjoyed being able to sit around the table face to face and roleplay with no one making fun of you unless it was really idiotic. Also when new people joined the group we welcomed them with open arms and helped them be part of the group as quickly as possible.
I heard about MMORPG in the late 90's, and what I heard was kind of disturbing. New players joining and people making fun of them or not giving advice or just plain ignoring them because they were new. I realized I did not want to be any part of that!!!
Then a friend said we should try one since we are the only ones left in our group and I thought okay but if its like what I heard I'm gone!!!
On searching for a realm we found PlaneShift, and I have only been here for two days but what I found was BREATHTAKING. The people were nice, if you asked a question you usually got an answer or they would show you the way. So I guess I was wrong all these years or maybe I just found home.
So thx to everyone I have talked to you have made this place a pleasure to be in and a big THANKYOU to the person/s that have the imagination that I get to explore.
