I'm new to role-playing...

Someone please enlighten me. I must know how I must act and what I must do.

First, you must sign an alliance treaty with me, 'cause just about everyone hates me here.

No, join me in condemning the evil Nebulan empire.

First step is to change your profile picture, that Scheisse ist scary!

^These are useful.

Basically you just need to create an identity for your nation. Figure out what it's like, how it looks, who runs it, what are their personalities. Try to make sure you're not overlapping with other nation's existing characters and RP.

Get your country on the map.

Next find some easy RP story to get involved in, steer clear of RPs that are in a critical moment or ending for your first posts. Once you get the feel you'll know how to jump into those later.

The last two posts are actually helpful.

The first two are...amusing.

It's only fair for me to have some extra help.
