Hi. AW/Abz/Absent/Wiz/Wizzeh here. I joined on a snap decision after re-meeting HikariAngel. Then I proceeded to vomit a bunch of words onto a page and put something up for registration before realizing that this forum existed. So, here's the obligatory post. I think.
Inspiration's stuck, though. I might make a 2nd already. Maybe something about the manifested power of calculus.
Welcome, Wizard.
If you have any questions, or any thread ideas you want to instigate, I'm the go to go for fun times and pleasantries!
Enjoy your stay.

Well, I do have a question that I'm curious about after poking around the site a bit. Why are there 110 copies of Baidu Spider running around the site constantly?
That I believe is to monitor the database, connect to search engines, and monitor for bots.
I'll have to hand that to someone with more understanding of coding, however - it's nothing malicious :).

Well, alright then.
Is there such a thing as submitting the character profile post for judging?
Haha, no need - a member of the Realm of Greeting staff will see to it shortly!
Give it seven days at the uttermost worst case scenario, then shout at us :). Letho or Sandstorm are usually very prompt.

I meant more as a, "Your writing is terrible." way rather than a, "Your character is terrible." way. Although there are similarities, I suppose.
Not usually, from what I see, you've nothing to worry about!

Nah. You have nothing to worry about on that front. Not only are profiles generally a fuzzy at best indicator of writing quality but we don't discriminate based on writing ability. Hell when I first started RPing here back when time was young I was arguably one of the worst (my first solo on my first account ever scored a 13).

There are solos?

Yes you are allowed to do solo threads if you'd like though we try to encourage group threads over them.

Aaand that's approval. Alright, I'm confused. It seems like most of the recruitment's well and closed or dates back months since last post. Am I going to have to start something?
Or post your own recruitment thread - or an open thread, and see who jumps in :)?

Or wait a couple hours for Sei to inevitably try and conscript recruit you into the Ixian Knights.

He's at work...I am currently in charge of brainwashing...er...um...recruiting. Though Sei has already spoken to absent. Not that we even have to recruit anymore...we have people like you to do it for us. Thanks for the mention :)
Welcome aboard! I'm excited to see what you do with your character. If you are looking for someone to do a medical-related thread with, I'd PM Twincast. As far as I know she's the only other medic we have on the site (forgive me if I'm wrong). Either way, I look forward to reading whatever you come up with.

Sei already spoke to me? When? I feel like I've forgotten something now.
Still need to dig up or make a good portrait. At least if I'm going to try to share that space with Twincast.
My offer still stands! If you want to have a thread of ridiculous insincerity, I'm game. ;)
