Hey, Divider, and welcome to RPOL! If I were you, I'd post what I was looking for in the Wanted - GMs forum:
link to another game. Describe the kind of game you're looking for and maybe a little about yourself (don't go into detail, but give your potential GM some idea of what to expect from having you in a game).
You can also keep an eye on Wanted - Players:
link to another game. Sometimes GMs will include in their post "newbies welcome" or something along those lines, but if you see a game ad that looks interesting, you can stop by the game and ask the GM there if they'd consider taking on a new player. To do so, you can click the "Request access" link in the game itself.
Also, be sure to check out the FAQs and Help file, located in the upper right-hand corner of the screen for more info on how RPOL works. Good luck, and happy gaming! =)
