I think you sound rather down to earth. Cold and calculating can sound rude. I've ran into this problem with afew of my friends before, so it has its down sides. Which is why I addressed it, thank you for welcoming me so kindly!
I currently enjoy things like xxxholic, tokyo ghoul, soul eater, black butler, attack on titan and I dove further into the abyss when I started kamisama kiss. I am probably forgetting quite a few, but those are what I know from the top of my head.
So as you can see I have made an account and have become "fresh meat". Honestly, I hope I appear less cold and calculating as I will sound in this post. I hope I will be able to enjoy role-playing in this community and look forward to those experiences.
A friendly hello to RPN.
