Hi, I'm new to this stuff.

[Ryu-kun]

Hi, I hope I will be a pleasant addition to this place.

Is there a place I can chat and casually learn to RP and stuff?

Thanks!

Hello Ryu-kun! Welcome to EcchiDreams! I am at work so I am sure the staff, with the color purple in their name, will help you out with any questions you may have and hope to see you around. =)

Hello, and welcome to EcchiDreams, Ryu-kun.  Hope you have a good time, and if you have any questions, feel free to contact a member of the staff.  As for your question, if you're looking for a place to learn to RP, I'd suggest making a thread in the Game Master's Corner.  There are plenty of skilled RPers who would be glad to help you learn the ropes.

Hello and welcome to EcchiDreams! It's good to see you here! We have a number of Roleplaying Guides that are designed to help you learn, and improve your roleplaying as well as to familiarise you with the kinds of roleplay available here on EcchiDreams. Feel free to make use of them. If you have any questions, or need help, please don't hesitate in contacting a member of staff.

If you're just looking to chat outside of roleplay, you can use the Ecchi chat in the bottom right corner of the screen as well as simply posting a status on the homepage. You can also browse the forums in the community index for some fun topics of discussion, and you can feel free to join in on any available roleplayers. Finding a roleplay partner is really simple, especially with preferences as open as yours! 

Hope you enjoy your stay <3

Hey there, Ryu-kun, welcome to EcchiDreams!
Hope you have fun here, but should you ever need any help, staff have purple names, as others have said.
What hasn't been said is that we also have a mixed skill RP club here: 

You just RP as yourself/your avatar, more or less. You can read about it more specifically in the club itself.

Sweet Dreams~
