Hi everyone... I hope this is the right section for introducing myself >.>

I've quite a background of RPG games. Been playing ever since I was a wee lad. There are things you should probably know about me.

The first MMORPG I really got into was Runescape, but my parents are religious fanatics and didn't like me playing games with magic in them. They said I would go to hell... I was a stubborn child though and snuck around and played when they weren't around. Sooner or later I got banned from Runescape because I botted too much, and some wankers reported me.

Then I moved on to PS3. I am a Playstation fan. I think the XBOX is ridiculous since their controllers are weird, and they make you pay for a live account. And Halo is just boring.

While I have played many games for the console, the one I focused on for a long piece of time was Call of Duty. That was what introduced me to Challenge Lobbies where we could hack the game patch and unlock all of our equipment and ranks... So I did those for a long time. I was also a fan of QuickScoping... And I joined QS clans like a nerd.

I took a break from COD and played TES games, first Oblivion, and then Skyrim when it was released. It is my favourite console game, honestly. I love fantasy; I love roleplay.

After that I began to play MUDs, the first one being Avalon. I just happened to run across it in my perusings - a text-based MMORPG, and it was an enthralling and amazing experience. It is the only game I still play today, since I no longer have my consoles...

Gaming aside, I like almost every genre of music, though I usually stick with the more popular ones on the leaderboards. I hate gangster rap. Just reminds me of my brother who thinks he's a wigger.

My username comes from one of my favourite books (can you guess which one? ^^), a Sorcerer named Belgarath. I love to read fantasy novels, and there are too many to call a favourite.

*phew* Anyway, pleasure to meet you all and be a part of the community.

Welcome to RPoL.  It's always good to see another David Eddings fan roaming around.

If you like text based games, then you've come to the right place.  If you haven't already, check out the Wanted-Players forum, as that's where GMs looking for players for their existing games advertise.

If there's something specific you're looking for in a game, Wanted-GMs is a good place to let the GMs know - there's often an existing game for whatever 'niche' you're looking to fill.  :-)

And, of course, the FAQs are a great place to go for general information.  If you have questions, we have loads of helpful people around who usually rush to answer.  ;)

Ah, a MUD player!  MUDs were my first introduction to roleplaying games back on college, too, although I don't have time to play them anymore.  Fantastic to have you here, and may you have many happy years of enjoyment.

I still haven't told my parents I play D&D.

Who doesn't like Belgarath?  Welcome!

Torak.   ;)

On the other hand, welcome to RPoL!
