Hello, and welcome.

OOC stands for Out Of Character (as you likely already grasp).
Most every game you’ll find on RPoL has an OOC thread, where players can chat ‘out of character’.

To post into this, or any thread, just click the ‘Post a Reply’ button down at the bottom right there.
Feel free to do that now.

Button located and clicked on

Awesome work.

You’ve joined a game.
You’ve made your first post (and flamboyantly so, using Bold text to boot).

If I were any kind of net-magician, there’d be a spinning star, with an ‘Acheivement’ icon.

You look like you are feeling quite comfortable with this so far.

By the way, I am working till 6am ... then I’ll be heading home for a day of schleep.
But you let me know when you need to hit the sack.

Whelp, I can faff for a little bit longer, say, an hour, but..been a big day, so id call it then

what would I like royal red? Everything

Something to note when applying to games:
Most games have threads like this ‘OOC’ that you can see when you visit the game ... even if you are not logged as a player.

Many GMs include an ‘RTJ’ thread (short for ‘Request to Join’) in which they spell out what they want from a prospective player in that players RTJ.  These might be things like:
- I require you to be familiar with the game system I am using.
- I am only accepting *these* types of characters.
- I require that you post a contribution to this game once every day.
Etc

If you are considering playing a game, and the GM has posted an RTJ thread, I strongly encourage you to read this.

Of course.

Any time you wish to post a response to a particular post made, as I have here, hit the ‘quote’ button at the top right of that post.

That is Very useful info.
both where to find it, and what they want.
id have tooled around for some time before noticing I suspect

..
and i have found fonty things

So now that you’ve got yourself accepted to a game, and logged, the next logical step is to build a character.
This will be evident, and you are experienced with this.

Let’s say, for simplicity sake, in this Steampunk Investigators game, you will need to:
- give your character a name
- list Body, Mind, Social and Fighting in priority with +4, +3, +2 and +1 ...
because the rules system has you roll a d6 and add your mod (target #5) to succeed at an action.


Go!

You have.
And you are picking this up well and fast.

..and found how to pop a pc image  in the bio XD
Happy dayz!

Absolutely she does.

Now, the GM may have asked in their RTJ thread for either a ‘character concept’ or ‘full character’ to have been submitted.

Either way, once you’re in the game, the GM can re-name your log in, as I have now done.
You can see that you are now logged as ‘Ingrid De-Vour’, rather than ‘Seagoat’.
(You can see this in the top left hand of the game’s site ... or by hitting the ‘Cast’ button in the top centre, where every character can be seen)

Well done, I was just about to talk you through that.

In reply to Sean (msg # 15):
