Another New Roleplayer

[Kingly Shadow Deactivated]

Well hello!

I am not entirely sure what to say, other than that I hope that I can hopefully meet and create some friends!

Thank you all, and I hope to Roleplay something soon.

Hello @Kingly Shadow and welcome to EcchiDreams.

Our site can be a little daunting to those who are new so I want you to be aware that our community is usually willing to help with any problems or questions you may have. The staff are also just as willing to help if you should need it (You can find us easily as we all have Purple names). There are a few things you can do to improve your chances of finding someone to roleplay with, and I've got a quick start guide for you here:

• Complete your profile.
• Fill out a Roleplayer Preferences form; to let others know what your preferences are.
  • If you're into private roleplaying (Not publicly on the forums, but on EcchiChat (The chatbar) or by EcchiTexts, then consider letting people know. You can also use that link to find roleplayers that you might want to roleplay with.
  • Remember; if you post around on the forums, say play in forum games and what have you, consider putting a link to your preferences in your signature for maximum exposure. 
• To be in control of your account, consider taking a look at our Account Control Guides.
• If you're stuck for what the roleplay options are, and/or how to get started take a look at our Roleplaying Guides.
• If you want to know more about your profile options there are also a few guides here.

If you have further questions, please don't hesitate in asking. We're happy to help.

Being a new roleplayer here, I have many curiosities. One that stands out, is thus: how would I go about asking someone just to chat with instead of Roleplaying right off the bat? Any info is appreciated. Thank you!

[Sunstone]

Well, there aren't any specific rules here that say that you have to jump straight into Roleplay with others, but if you are wanting just to have simple chit-chat, I'd say your best bet would be to reach out to users who are online in EcchiChat (this site's chatroom feature). Bear in mind though, that not everyone who is on EcchiChat is necessarily wanting to "chat" as such; the users that appear in EcchiChat are more of an indicator of who's logged in... so, if in the chance you approach someone who might not be willing to talk, don't feel disheartened by it.

Another tip I could give is to participate in some of the forum discussions, and make a name for yourself in the community!  You're a lot more likely to get people who will want to get to know you if you make an effort to put yourself out there. We have a Discord server as well, if you prefer to chat through there. Many of us are active there as well.

And, if we both happen to be online at the same time, I'd be happy to chat.  You're more than welcome to write to me any time!

Sunstone, thank you kindly for all the info! I’m looking forward to having awesome discussions with people here. I think I’ll start by browsing the forums.
