Hi, I'm new to ENworld too!

Actually I'm also very new to D&D... I have an idea how everything works, but most of my experience is in 3.5 (A couple horribly failed PBPs and lots of NWN2).

I'm really looking forward to being able to play a character I'm thinking of in 4e (Swordmage ).

This place seems pretty darn daunting but hopefully I can assimilate and start having fun!

Yeah, I was in the same boat (Having only played ever two characters)
but you will manage, just put yourself out there

So you've already taken the first step.

Thanks, I am trying to make a character on LEB but the wiki formatting and stuff is really tiresome to use... before I was just using an auto-calculating xls for it.

It wasn't actually a posting war between me and Rhun. Well, he evidently thought it was. I was actually just trying to hit 10k posts. I did, and I surrendered to Rhun upon doing so. HEY, RHUNNIE! THE WAR'S OVER! LET'S ALL GO HOME NOW AND HAVE A BEER!

Right...which is why you said you were even starting to use multiquote, but just found your way into this thread and replied like 5 times in a row. LOL...nice try, Leif. That's what they call try to lull the other side into a sense of false security.

 

[Rhun]

hey rhun, now you should say speak of the devil and he appears! hi leif!

Good point, Dewar. Very good point.

Welcome! And you don't have to play 4e around here. SOme of us outright refuse, so if you want to play 3.5 you should still be able to find those games here as well.

With that said, many PBP suffer from critical failures, so don't expect a game to go long term...it requires truly dedicated players and DM.

 

[Scott DeWar]

first, let me say that there are indeed truely dedicated dm's and players here on enworld. they are actually quite plentiful.

I also wish to give an honorable mention to mention Pathfinder: better then 4.X and fixes the broken 3.5 system.

I would like to mention that although Leif rattled off 5 posts without using multi quote, I appears that you , rhune rattled off 3 posts without using multi quote, unlike me who is guilty of probably using multiquote too often.

:ANGEL: or should it be

While this is true, you can fully expect half of the games you join to die within the first few months. It is an unfortunate part of the PBP experience.

I concur. Pathfinder seems to be pretty sweet.

I would like to mention that although Leif rattled off 5 posts without using multi quote, I appears that you , rhune rattled off 3 posts without using multi quote, unlike me who is guilty of probably using multiquote too often.

I don't deny that I have avoided using multiquote many times, such as your example noted above. Of course, in that instance, I was actually trying to make my point. On the other hand, up until the time someone decided my post score was a good goal to overcome, I rarely ever made a post that wasn't directly linked to a game, whether IC or OOC. But again...what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

 

[HolyMan]

Speaking of which....


Can somebody teach me how to use multiquote I am as yet unsure (maybe it's why I have the post count I do then)

Thanks
