Thanks all! Eager to see what we can come up with here!

Oh I didn't understand that it's only on weekends...noticed this morning... *goes to sleep until friday* :sleepy:

Oooh so phase 3 is over right now, didn't realize! And there's a wipe? Got time to figure out my character then until phase 4...

Hello everyone! Looking forward to explore this world and hope to meet you IC on the way! --MMORPG background Not very much, but tried out lots of different ftp-mmorpgs. The one I've played a little more extensively is Lotro, almost gotten my elf archer up to lvl 50. --RP experience I roleplayed a lot in lotro, great enviroment for that since I'm super familiar with the lore. Played lots of pen and paper rp back before d&d was retro. Just started again some time ago, atm playing d&d-fatecore over google hangout. Fun times. --Character ideas/info I've started with a Lalafell on Balmung. As his father and his father before him, he is a healer, a gardener of life. This little guy seems to be more into destroying stuff though so he will probably find another career as soon as he has a chance. --How did you learn about the coalition? the internets... --What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy? I guess medium/heavy. I'm not the kind of person to stand around in one spot orating for hours about everyday things, I do like to get out there adventuring and actually playing the game. But I am into rp - and MMOs - for the immersion and could easily adventure ICly all the time. --Anything from real life you're comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc) Swedish, musician/phd student/archivist, father (making playing too late at night difficult since I got early mornings..).

Ah I see, thanks. So to find rp, I just join interesting linkshells and see where that takes me? Or are there places in the world where rp:ers tend to hang out, like a Hydaelyn alternative to lotros Prancing pony? Would you say that, at this time, the rp-community at Gilgamesh is bigger than Balmung? I could easily remake my char for that server at this early point.

So I just got into the beta yesterday. Made a character on Balmung and is on the hunt for some nice rp. So two questions - * I'm not really following the talk about legacy, I haven't played the earlier installment off ffxiv. I read somewhere that balmung was closed to new players, but I made a character yesterday without problems. Should I be concerned for some reason? * Which would be the best place to go to to find rp:ers Is there a good spot to start or are there guilds (or are thats whats called Linkshells?) that I should join? I'm playing a lalafell. Thanks!
