This site also has Dice Roleplays and Nation Building! You can also use the Looking for Roleplayers feature as well. It allows you to filter for certain types of roleplays and genres.

In my case I went to Looking for Partners (1 on 1) subsection and just sent a shout out! I found a bunch of people to play with. 
It's really easy, you just gotta put yourself out there and let people know what you're looking for.

Dice and Nation RPs should still use Interest Checks until the game gets going, just like the others. (

Glad you found what you were looking for!

I'm trying to find out how to start a group roleplay, but this new update has made everything completely impossible. I'm very upset about it.

There are two different sections which are available to members.
The first one is like the old system but without the tabs. Why? Because the tabs were a custom-made add-on from the old providers. Due to the lack of upgrades, the tab system is no longer relevant. Instead, users may create separate threads within the sub-forums for Character Sheets and OOC threads. You can link these threads to the main thread in your roleplay. The staff has mentioned that they are looking for a new alternative but this is the method which can be used for the time being.
The second system is Hosted Project. These are like miniature forums for your roleplay. You may have separate sections for character sheets, main roleplaying content, etc. A tutorial on how to create a Hosted Project can be found here. Note that a member must have a content count of at least 250 in order to create a roleplay in the Hosted Project section.

I don't understand the new system at all. How am I supposed to link these things together and why do I have to create all these separate things just to make everything work? This is all way more complicated than it needs to be.

If you want to have a separate OCC thread and Character Sheet thread, you'll need to copy and paste the link of that thread into the main thread of your roleplay. This is not the "new" system. This system is the old system minus the tabs. As I mentioned before, the tabs are no longer available because they were a custom add-on that was commissioned for the site with the older provider, XenForo. Due to moving to a new provider, that add-on is now gone. The staff team is working on finding a new alternative so users do not have to copy and paste the links to their roleplay related threads for the future.
It's not very complicated at all. The main roleplay page will be created in one of the genre forums, like this one. Then, you have the option to create an OCC thread, a Characters thread, and any other extra page that you desire. Once you have created all of the threads that you need for your roleplay, copy and their URLs and paste them into the main thread that you created in the forums. Note: This process is not necessary to have a functioning roleplay. You can simply create the thread in the main genre forum. You do not have to create any extra threads if you choose.
The Hosted Projects are a new and different system. You can find a tutorial on how to make those here.
