Aha! So this is where the 'Town' that everyone is talking about is!
FFRP seems like a very interesting concept, and I feel like I would enjoy it. It seems like a good place to RP without the restrictions placed on you by the class, race, level, etc. of DnD. I shall definitely be trying it out.
Hi! Welcome to Free Form Roleplaying! There are a lot of different worlds to play in too. There's Nexus, and then there are some others. (I do not know what their acronym's stand for. Sorry...
If you choose Nexus, just post in the OOC thread and say hello! We'll give you advice if you need it to. See you around!
The Town doesn't really exist anymore. It's been absorbed into the Nexus universe, which is the biggest and most restriction-free of the games here. The other 'verses are more streamlined, with clear goals and boundraries.

So basically, all I have to do is just say which thread I want to be a part of? That's it? In that case, I'd like to go to that HALO thread I failed in the other day. My friend is in it, he says it's fun, so I want to give a shot.

Would anyone be interested in an FFRP set in a world after a nuclear war? Something like the setting for Fallout.
Also, would anyone be interested in an FFRP that takes place in the Oblivion's setting?
I would be interested in the post apocolyptic. I am always fond of the mysterious wanderer type of character and post apocolyptic is one of the best settings to do it in.

southwest Arizona, its already a wasteland right now in small parts *squeaky grin* Plus it would have been a nice area for bombs to have stuck with the palo verde nuclear power plant just over *yonder* making it all extra inhospitable
Well, all you really need do for HALO is just make a character, and have them show up in the entrance hall. (Usually by the sub service from the surface, but there are more ways. )
Then just go with it from there.
I think that may be a HALO specific thing, though, as I can't speak for anywhere else.

So, I have been in the FFRP for almost 5 years now, and I've always put links to my characters in my signature. However, I've made so many, in so many settings, that it's difficult to consolidate them. Is there a place I can just post the links from my sig, then make one overall link to replace them?

You can use a post in the Nexus registry thread, which is where my sig link goes to, if most of your characters are Nexus. Or a post in this thread is fine too. Or there's the extended signature thread in Friendly Banter. As long as it's a thread vaguely related to either signatures or characters, I can't see a problem with you appropriating a post from it as a parking place.

Thanks for the info but...how do I make a character exactly?

Sorry, noob here.
Well, about the same way you would in anything else.
What race are they? What do they look like? How would they react to some situations?
Then toss them in somewhere and really see how they react to some situations.
There's a thread for character sheets, too, that's always a good spot to start.
And that thread is right here!

I've recently taken an interest in PbP stuff and I'm thinking about stepping into FFRP. Is that a semi-classic fantasy setting that could provide a sweet little succubus with a home? At the moment I'm think Trog's Tavern as I have a few ideas in mind but not sure how to get started....
__________________
Proof that avataring standards in the Playground have reached an all-time low:
Trog's is an excellent place to start, and you can have your Succubus hang out there as long as you need until you feel brave enough to have her explore the larger Nexus. It's a mish-mash of classic fantasy, sci-fi, anime, and pretty much any other world that people feel like dragging in.
Most of the info you need can be found in the two links in my sig for newbies.
Just for clarity, FFRP is not a single setting. It is a subforum devoted to free form roleplaying, which contains several different games within it.
The largest of these games/settings (as the two are rather the same due to how FFRP games work) is Nexus, which is the one you're looking at. You can identify which setting each thread belongs to by the tag it displays in the thread title. All of the Nexus threads, for example, have [Nexus] (or {Nexus} when people are feeling too fancy for regular, nicer looking brackets ) in the title.
Nexus is not exactly a classic fantasy setting though, it's more a giant conglomeration of settings with a tendency towards fantasy, but also some modern and sci-fi flare.
This is the thief who likes to hoard,
That loves the bard with the puppet Lord
That admires the fighter with the green-hilted sword,
That employs the Wizard, whose bird is ignored,
That has the gender unexplored
That intrigues the Halfling, usually bored,
That slew a mountain of the goblin horde,
That follows the cleric,
That serves the lich,
That seeks the gate,
That guards the snarl,
That lives in the prison the gods built.
I believe so, actually. Or something along those lines. I think at this point it's reasonable to say that we've tried most things, or at least suggested them or things thematically similar to then. Whether we'd like to re-try them, however, is a question worth asking.
