I am familiar with other forums and I am excited to join the community :)

Hello and good to have you with us. While a basic understanding of netiquette will serve you well here I would strongly suggest that you read over the FAQs and Help files to be found through the links in the upper right of your screen. RPoL has a number of quirks and idiosyncrasies which can be pitfalls to the unwary and reading over those sections will steer you clear of the worst of it. Also take the time to read the notices in each board and game, they usually will do much the same for more specific foibles.
