About 3 years ago I did something drastic (for me, at least). After 10+ years of being active in various communities and trying to get used to the ever changing world of the web I decided to quit. It was getting quite lonely, honestly, to try to stay social in an online space where algorithms, likes and AI became more present with every waking day. I focused more on irl friendships, doing art and writing just for me, getting better at my job, stuff like that. It's been really nice, and I'm back in a good mental space.
I knew that if I was going to start being more active online again that I wanted to join spaces similar to the ones I perused back in the early 2000s, when the internet was still new, strange and exciting. I loved forum spaces of all kinds. DeviantArt was my go to site for meeting new people from all over the world, doing art trades, writing stories together, it was also there I discovered roleplay for the first time.
So. Here I am. I stumbled upon these forums some time ago and have been lurking for a while, enjoying the various threads and roleplays, contemplating whether to make a profile.
I will probably continue lurking, set up some characters, see how it feels. I love character driven roleplay, both whimsy and lighthearted fun, big dramatic story archs and the occasional romance.
Anyone else used to RP on deviantart back in the day, or what was your favourite places to go on the old internet?

Welcome 
Hey, welcome in!! Love your artstyle, first of all. Second, I hope you enjoy perusing the site with your own account, and that you're able to find a solid story to play with someone. See ya around!
P.S. I discovered roleplay on an in-game chat, lol. Very, erm, humble beginnings. xD

Good to meet ya. RPR is a great sight with an amazing community of writers so I am sure you shouldn't have a hard time finding some great RP partners.
My first Rps started with a Pokémon Rp. It was actually between an irl friend of mine on Facebook.

❤︎ WELCOME TO RPR! ❤︎
Hello there, new friend! I am Hibari Haru. You can call me "Hibari" or "Haru." Whichever you prefer. I think the first place to go, or where I RPed mostly, was on Wattpad when they used to have the DM feature.
Now, anyway, I hope you are enjoying your stay so far, and if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask. Everyone is super nice. Also, if you still need help getting started, you can refer to this helpful 🔗 link. 🔗 Or go here to look for any RP prompt you wish to participate in or post.
Again, it's nice to meet you and see you around! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)💕
“Oh my.. a new person in RPR?.. how nice.. I suppose I'll great them.”
I give my WELCOMES to you PieceofDough to RPR!— I hope your stay here will be splendid and I give you all the blessings to guide you in this journey!(人 •͈ᴗ•͈)
Welcome!!!!
Welcome! I'm Glitch.
I think my first site might've been a website called Eliteskills. The site as it used to be is gone now though. Sad
But I can say I've met some incredible people since coming here and I'm sure you will too! So give it your best shot and if you see me around say hi, I'm always down to chat or discuss idea!

Hi Piece of Dough,
Welcome to RPR!!
Piece of Cake to register at RPR!! But lurking is over now, time to be more active, time to write again. Old habits will return, faster than you think. You have a character and now you propose that one to this community. You’ll quickly find new friends, but maybe even old ones, who knows. Sorry, I never were on DeviantArt, but for sure I’d love to see more of your art.
Else you just ask, write, draw, propose RPs and have fun. If not, moderation team will be there😉
Enjoy it all
Lizbeth
Welcome! Hope you're having a nice time here so far ^.^
