Roleplay Experience

[Jules8008]

I started roleplaying when I was about twlve or eleven. Dark times, my man. I started on a page which has been closed down, called "goSupermodel". It started with Warrior Cats RPG's and my posts were...um. Cringy, to say the least.
I am fond of two ways of writing, atleast those 2 were introduced to me. Writing with symbols and roman writing (full sentences). The symbol one is kind of hard to explain or may look weird.

Spoiler: Writing with symbols

Name:
Talking / "Talking" / 'Talking', etc
//Thinking//
*doing (usually also covers expressions)*

Bonus:
When I am swapping between characters at different locations, I usually write - In the meantime - , - Somewhere else -.
These ~ wavy lines ~ usually indicate something. Like flickering lights, power outage, et cetera. They are usually red

I am currently writing an RPG with the symbol-version. The RPG's are usually kind of fast paced, as you don't need to form full sentences. Interactions from Your Character A to Your Character B are also pretty easy.

I started writing with the symbol version (most did, actually), and my sentences were pretty...lame. They consisted of my characters being as interesting as a paper plane. Or dirty dishes. I wish I could turn back time and slap myself SO DAMN HARD.
As stated, I joined Warrior Cats RPG's and my characters ALWAYS, EVERY DAMN TIME, had a dark backstory. Not denying my current characters don't have one, but god damn, 12 year old me tried to be edgy.
After I got bored of those RPG's, I left the RPG's and joined one about a clan of wolves. was pretty funny, and the GM is also my favorite RPG partner (I am writing my fave multifandom zombie RPG with her)

Thank the lords 12 year old me never tried to play mentall ill characters, except for social anxious ones. I started with those when the page closed down and we had to swap to a similar site. So, when I was around 17 or 18.

I started forum roleplay on a petsite that also doubled as an RP forum, though collecting pets was much more popular. The site was massive, with thousands of preteen girls like me spamming to raise their pets in the forum games section. Roleplaying kind of died off because of that, but the RPs were a lot of fun if you picked your way through the E-RP (which, after three years of the site's existence, was finally prohibited) and the edgy Twilight-esque plots.

After two years, I left the site because good RPs became increasingly rare and people (11-14 year olds, mind you) tried to find loopholes in the rules against E-RP. That's when I began roleplaying on Miiverse.

Man oh man. Roleplays on Miiverse were something else. It's a shame the site shut down, or else I'd screenshot some examples. Again, more thirsty preteens, drama, and shitposts. Still, I did find quite a few good apples whose talents were wasted in this strange, sad little community.

I started forum roleplaying again not long after joining Miiverse, this time on a Pokemon website that offered a roleplaying subforum. The roleplaying was great, but a little too slow-paced for my liking, when I had plenty of free time to kill. I check back there occasionally, but I'm no longer active in the community.

For about a year after "quitting" Miiverse (about nine months or so before its demise) I browsed many different sites for a satisfying roleplay experience. I tried my hand at forums dedicated to an established universe, but I missed the freedom these sites lacked.

I eventually stumbled here after looking at a Web page called JayCat's Choice, where it was listed close to the top of a list of a myriad of RP sites. I have been active her since, though I sometimes still look at other forums. I think this is the best one I've ever been involved in, looking at my track record.

TL ; DR: I've roleplayed since 2013. First on a petsite, then on Miiverse, and finally here.

I've been role playing since, like, 2003. ;-; Back in the days of Neopets, the good ol' days.

My RP started when I joined the site. Haven't looked back
