I think I started maybe around 7-8 years ago?
My first encounter with RP aside from playing silly scenarios in elementary school, was on some RP website that I forget the name of. Awful, cringe characters related to Naruto. I mainly used chatrooms for that and continued on places like realchat, and a place called TIJ (The Inuyasha Journey, I think?) Stuck with that about a year or two developing myself. The most fun part was moving from one-liners to eventually paragraphs as I 'fought' with people using define styles like T2, T$. Requirements to type out # word length of 'prepare,' 'action,' and then 'connection.' So maybe something like 7-5-7. It heavily favored people who typed fast so that paved the road for my typing skills too.
From there I moved onto GaiaOnline as well, mostly Naruto (Path of the Shinobi, The Unknown Path, Village Rebellion) guilds since that tickled my fancy the most. Tried to get into other things but it quite wasn't there for me, especially since I preferred using anime pictures for my characters and wasn't a huge fan for realistic ones. It was like that for another few years until I eventually stopped RPing altogether until recently (FFXIV), playing other games that didn't really have any RP communities.
I've always wanted to play D&D.
