It has been quite a few years since I've been on a forum, so this will be an interesting experience.
I'm a recent addition to the Balmung server after spending a couple months of off-and-on play over on Midgardsormr. It was fun for awhile, but then my living situation changed, and with it, came really poor internet that had--unbelievably--a data limit. So on the late nights I could actually come on, I would see the few friends I had there speed on past me to end game content, having little-to-no time to interact with me at all. It may sound whinny, but I'm not a veteran MMO player, and I was hoping that Realm Reborn would be a great social experience for me. I play at a very casual pace, and though I would really like to see the late-game content, I'd rather take my time and enjoy the game and the people in it.
So, I looked up the best social servers in the game when I considered a move, and Balmung came up repeatedly. The roleplay aspect is what also sold it for me. >^.^<
A little about me... I've been into RP for about 20 years now, all starting with this strange pencil and paper game called "Champions". lol That soon swept into D&D, and I was hooked ever since. Text-based RP has also been a passion of mine for 15 of those years, and I started on some long-gone forum called ffx-2.net. Sadly, many of those years were marred by the newer generations coming in who liked to label anyone who wrote more than 1-2 solid paragraphs a long-winded loser/elitist who had no writing skill at all because they couldn't "say more with less"... I'm a long winded writer. I LOVE writing. Character creation and world-building are two great passions of mine, so I have quite a few projects on the side that I work on here and there.
I'm looking forward to being a part of this fantastic community where it seems everyone actually appreciates creativity and dedication. I hope to make many friends, and watch our characters and beloved plots thrive and grow. >^.^<
