This should be your first step. It details expectations for you using the site itself, and carries over to the forums, as the forums are part of the site.

Forum Rules
This should be your next step. Make sure you know the rules of what things are and aren't allowed. They're pretty simple to follow and are there to make sure everyone has the best time possible.

New to Roleplay?
This will explain what roleplay is, and some of the basics to help you understand it better.

Getting started
Explains what RPR is, how to create a character, and how to find an RP to join.

This goes into more depth on how to create and edit a character profile.

Creating Kickbutt Character Profiles
This will give you tips on how to spice up your character profiles to attract more potential RP partners.

If you have an idea for your own RP and want to find someone to join it, this is the place to post. Try to add as much information as possible so your potential RP partners know exactly what you're looking for.

If you have any questions about anything, don't hesitate to ask! Everyone here is very friendly and will help as much as possible, so don't be shy! I hope you have a wonderful time here and find many amazing people to create awesome stories with.

You know, I had always wanted to try my hand at Twitter or Tumblr RP, but I never quite figured out how. And when I sought out a few folks on Tumblr to inquire, they were not very kind and forthcoming so I was a little discouraged there. I wonder if Twitter is any better though! 🤔

Either way, RPR has been my most favorite go-to of all because it's very welcoming and most people here are incredibly open and friendly. I tend to play canon/licensed characters so I'm sort of an odd duck in comparison. OC's is where it's at 'round these parts. You'll fit in immaculately. 😊

My favorite aspect of RPR is building the profiles -- there is so much you can do and put into them that it's almost limitless! I say have fun and check out other folks' stuff to get an idea of things if need be!

If you have any questions or what have you, feel free to ask any one of us. We're a helpful bunch and we'll be glad to get you up to speed.

I also recommend checking out the Forum Games. At the moment that's where I'll likely be. It's quick-fire interaction and some of the games put out there really make you think about your characters. Check out _Skylark_'s posts, for example!

Anyhoo, have fun and don't hesitate to ask us stuffs. Welcome to RPR! 🫶🏻
