Re: Noob.
Between checking the FAQs and following Merevel's advice, you should have everything under control. If both of the 'Wanted' forums yield little of interest to you, 'Game Proposals, Input, and Advice' can be a good place to check for interesting potential games too, though you may have to wait longer to get started, and the games you find there have no gaurantee of ever getting off the ground. If you're still unsure what this whole RPoL thing is about after all that, you might try finding a game that looks cool and see if the GM minds taking you on as a 'lurker.' Just PM them through the game's thread (NOT rMail) and ask. This will allow you to watch how it's done and read through old stuff, but not participate.
One last thing... Welcome to RPol and happy gaming!
