A Newbie Game (New to Enworld PbP)

I am about as new to 3.x as you get. Played a lot of 1e and 2e when I was younger and recently got the the 3.5 core books as well as Unearthed Arcana. Would love to get into a Pbp game, as I have found the others I play with to be fickle about meeting regularly. A word of caution, though. I am not the most computer literate person in the world, but I am willing to learn.

We havn't any guidelines yet, because I'm not sure if we are running Homebrew or LEW yet. If we do run Living EN World, the character creation method is pre-set as stated in this thread.
Looks like a regular 1st level DnD 3.5 game. It's up to you guys whether you want to run in LEW or a homebrew game. You can look at the forum: here for general info.
LEW is a "living game" in that the characters can interact with other player characters (living characters) in a much broader sense then you could at a regular gaming table. For instance, an adventuring party that lost a character could go back to the local tavern and see if there are any other players there that they could recruit into their group. Multiple adventuring parties can convene during their adventures into a single location, and trading and crafting are possible professions besides adventuring (but were working on crafting. The rules havn't been decided yet). Another good thread to read is the thread that created LEW shown here and Macbeth's guide to LEW here. Here are some little bits and pieces if your curious about the world itself:

If we run homebrew, we might use the LHHS world which I ran a campaign in a few years ago. I also tried to run a mini-adventure there as well here. I'm also open to "classic" dnd, where the setting is often created as you go, or an Exalted/Vile setting, or just about anything.

As long as your computer skills are enough to get you to the boards to post once every day or two, I have no problems with that. The only thing I request from anyone is that you tell me if your not going to post for a week or more, or if your going to drop from the game for any reason. Just some courtesy I ask for, but besides that I'm just excited to run a game for some players that I havn't gamed with yet. A "fresh" game just seems like something I, and the boards, could use right now.wolfheart said:

Also, if you've ever seen the Filcher's from creature collection II, I've been dying to play one for ever. Though that might not fit the best, but it's been in my head since i got that book. mmm filcher rogue ;-)

I would be interested as well. While I am pretty seasoned at tabletop play, PbP is fairly new to me, and I would like to see how a seasoned PbP DM runs things, as I would eventually like to try my hand at DMing a PbP game.

P.S. 3.0 or 3.5 is fine by me, I would prefer low-level play, use the setting you feel most enjoyable.
