Beginner at Play by Post, Long time player
howdy... You came to the best site out there. the format that is being used is 'new" but everything is still at your finger tips on your Home page, or the page of , which ever game there is ( access to PMs , Dice roler CS ect ect..)
as a GM you can use all these tool, and everyone can use 'color for speech' to help you see who is talking. and if your tech savvy ( i lack there) you can put up pics and such.
to your right is a column, at the very bottom of that column is a 'search engine"..you click on that and Customize it to search for the games/ Genres you wish, and that includes ..number of posts...alphabet, or recent posts
Games do go , somewhat slow.. i have a slow game, as folks are scattered around the glode..another game moves nicely, for its size, and My bigger game moves very well when we are in combat, a bit slower when we aren't. I try to keep things moving though.
as Oborg said, there is 'wanted Players' and 'wanted GMs" you can look through.. GMs can bump their ads every 7 days. I do that, because you never know when some one will walk away, or RL grabs them.
Have fun..never be afraid to ask questions. If the Amins can't answer a player will!
