I think you'll find that in game RP is not too different from forum rp, the one difference though that is glaring is that it is 'real time' and more interactive. You don't have to describe the entire environment around you but you can certainly describe how a wind brushes up against your cheeks, or how your character hears the sound of running water ect., It adds a little more depth but you don't have to go crazy since the game gives you the environmental details.
I think I'm going to like that aspect the most, if I'm being honest! With forum RP, you sometimes had to wait a few hours if not weeks for replies and I think I'm going to like the interactive part of it and the fact that it's so quick? But thank you for the warm welcome!

A fellow IT person in networking? And a Miqo'te master race to boot? I like you already.
MMO RP can be pretty incredible on the whole- there's a lot of niches out there on Balmung, so if you have something in mind for where you want to go, that'll help a whole ton. Once you get connected (either via linkshells, free companies, or just making a post in Making Connections) you'll be off to the races!
I aim to please! (:
I have no idea what I want to do yet although the idea of getting into trouble sounds like it could be fun. I'm definitely going to making some posts in Making Connections and I'm active on tumblr as well, trying to get some things started.

Definitely digging your character idea. There's always trouble to be had, after all. Do you tend to do stories commonly for your characters? I always love character stories. They flesh out a persona in a way I can't otherwise do. Like tapping into them, you know?
Hello hello! Oh lord, as of right now, I play FFXIV 8-12 hours a day? But that's only because I'm not working. But I'm sure that'll change soon enough. I do do stories? I'm basing Norha on a previous character I had on a RP forum (only real life) and attaching the FFXIV lore to the character. But I'm definitely down for character stories.
