There is a Find RP section. If it isn't roleplay threads, what is it?

Because games are carried out through forum threads, inside groups, through private message, and even using other messaging systems not on the site, the Find RP section is there to propose games that the players can then play wherever they want, however they want. It has great search features to help define their game's setting and play style.

It is different from the "looking for RP" forum because only game proposals from currently-active users are shown, so you have much better odds of being connected with someone who wants to play THIS VERY INSTANT instead of when they next get on (which could be days, for all you know).

It's essentially just a match-making system for whatever you might want to play right now.

The RP Finder is a tool that lets you setup concepts for roleplays and people can suggest their characters for a concept. Unlike the "Looking for roleplay" forums, these concepts show up only if the creator has been active in the last 10 minutes. There's also no room to discuss the setting, and only the concept creator can see who's shown interest.

You can PM the character that's been suggested directly from the RP Finder and head over to the roleplay boards, a group or roleplay with them through private messages.

Some more information is in the news article from when this feature was released.

Thanks
