I understand. Check out everything. After you have finished get back to me via this Thread and we will work something out so that you create your own stuff here. I am happy to see you get started.

By the way, is all that you have planned with the intention of using current players here or you have others who need to join the Community and play?

Introduction Tiphereth

JB,

I wish I could say for sure if any other online role players would follow me, but is unknown right now. It seems our breed is becoming rare, and it is our nature to collect in small groups rather than participate in larger communities. It does make sense though, as we ultimately desire to make our surroundings familiar to us.

I am originally from a community which is surprisingly large, but it revolves around an online role playing game. I believe part of its success is it's simplicity, being a 2D game that offers a rich environment for role playing. I unfortunately, can no longer tolerate the leveling process of the game which like others relies upon a monotonous system of crafting. I reached a level where I cannot simply justify hours of wasted time to achieve an extra level in my blacksmithing skill even though that increase is necessary. Aside from that the scenarios that perpetuate the role playing seem to surround very select groups of which I am rarely a part of, and to participate in the play and post role playing that exists as well one has to have their game character somewhat involved in these significant events. The Play and Post, and the creative outlet that the writing involves is my first love and so I have sought out other places where I can find this.

After a lot of searching I have only found two sites that offer the environment I was seeking, International Discussions and the World of Medieval being one of them. So many of the other sites I have found are well structured but have little activity, they are like ghost towns, abandoned worlds with a few lingering stories. It makes me wonder if this is a trend or if in fact role playing is in decline. I do not have your extensive online experiences to properly judge this.

Your World of Medieval system is what I am most accustomed to and what I prefer. The other site I am involved with is similar, though not as developed. Your future implementation of an online 'character sheet' will definitely be a very attractive addition. I stay connected with the other site only because I enjoy participating in multiple scenarios, I have three on the go right now. Also the other site since it does not utilize a 'combat system' allows me to create an adventure in a D&D style, setting up any type of combat system I wish. I do not draw these comparisons to measure one site against the other, I mention it only because I detected the curiosity of a developer who is always seeking ways to modify his creations. I am humbled by your gesture to take the time to provide modifications to accommodate game mastering for a player. I need to study and experiment with your systems before I can know whether or not I can adapt to them.

Right now I am very much enjoying the World of Medieval 'Revenge' adventure.

Thank you.

I say work on developing it and I will come and walk trough it with you as a tester. Having more than 25 years of gaming experience in the AD&D worlds I believe we can work out bugs. I am like you and always searching for a good role playing site where one can enjoy themselves and see their characters grow.

I have started a play by post on JBs other site found here, Source 1, if you interested. It is a game I am still developing and using the AD&D world.

I understand. Play by Post in a serious style like we have here is dying. Only writers and those who appreciate 'writing their character' will like this and they are few. There are quite a number of teeny booper play by post versions but the stories make little sense, probably a representation of the maturity level of those who write them.

Development. I can develop all kinds of things and can go far. My main concern is that my time is compensated for the effort. Funds are good, but lots of participation is better. If I knew there were let's say 10 dedicated players to the World of Medieval I would make scripts where you could make your character dance if needs be.

My first love in RPG and the one I have dedicated most coding to is Plugged RPG. It is based on the Matrix movie, bu you may like to explore that, it is the only RPG that I know which has all types of Forum RPGing meshed into one: single play, flash, play by post, character building, etc. If you liked the Matrix Trilogy it will be great to see you there.

Thank you JB and KNtoran.

KNtoran where precisely is your post located?

JB, I completely agree with you that an effort on your part should be rewarded with some avid participation. The concepts I have in mind are really not that complicated, and perhaps an environment yet exists here. I'll make sure I explore everything.

Again, thank you.

Indeed KNtoran, this is what I was seeking. I am not really one for bells and whistles, although as I was previously mentioning, I am curious on whether we can post graphics in the RPG-Text forum, it would be nice to have graphic representation of our characters. If it is possible, I am an artist and would be able to whip graphics for you and whoever joined us.

I think JB had mentioned that it might be possible to use the gallery to hyperlink to a picture, but I am not sure. It seems that feature is blocked. If he's about perhaps he could clarify.

Nothing huge, like I said about 200 to 220 pixels in height max so as not to clutter the posts, sometimes people make their graphics way too big.

Like I said before, you tell me what you need here and I will tell you what can be done or if we have the feature here already. However for Text-RPG.com I would like to keep support related Topics to that site. Again, same procedure just go to the support section there: Source 9 open a Thread and state ALL what you need and I will reply with what can be done to facilitate you. Thanks.
