Title reflects reality

I figured the handle would be the best way to say  hey, I'm blind, without being too in your face about it.  A blind friend that used to be more active here, before life got in the way, told me about the place, and a little how to work it.  Any other pointers are welcome.

No, really, they are, because well... this is my first time on a roleplay site, and I don't know exactly what I'm doing. I mean what the proper protocol is and all.

Greetings! Welcome to the community!

Let us know if you’d like to play in a game, lead a game or just follow along.  Also, let us know what genres you enjoy and if you have a preference for a game system or free form.  Folks can help steer you in the right direction from there.

Hiya cithindril

Welcome to Roleplay Online! Here you will find all the games to your heart's desires!  Whether it’s system or creative freeform we got it.

I use to have a player that was blind in several of my games.  He was a brilliant writer using a system I sadly cannot remember his name or the system he used.  His friend also played who had a severe permanent leg injury from the war.  I miss them both. One I think went by something like Apoc or Apocalypse.... sadly unsure but as I said nothing held him back and nothing will hold you back my friend and that is what this place consists of... friends.  Anyone here is here to help you and welcome you to whatever type of games you wish to play from freeform creative writing to about any System game immaginable.


Not sure how much this can help you with your system you will be using but I post this to all our new players.

A few tips for you are below:-

Make sure you turn on your rmail by going to the link at the top that is User preferences, there you will find some settings to play around with including the rmail one as that is how you and most GMs can talk.

On the main menu there are two forums you can find what you want to play in

Wanted: players
Wanted: GMs

At the bottom of the main menu you will also find search link to find games and other good stuff.

So all I can say now is

HAPPY GAMING!!
LS

He probably used a screen-reader like me, and thanks for the information.

I don't know if my Screen-reader works well enough to allow me to run a game, but I'd like to try and find out at some point. I enjoy d20 games, and some free form as well, but have more experience with free form than any of the D&D/ Pathfinder rules systems. I've also got the rules for Shadowrun 4th edition, but never played. I don't have a lot of experience at roleplaying at all really, but am searching for games in the players wanted area for games in these general areas: thanks for asking.
