I hope this is the right spot for this thread, if not, I apologize in advance.

Anyways, I am still fairly new here, only been an actual member of EoFF for maybe a month or a little more (something like that.) During my time here I have enjoyed myself immensely and have no complaints at all! (Let's keep up the good work EoFF!) One thing has been on my mind though.

Roleplaying.

I am a big roleplayer. I have been doing it for years, ever since my junior high days in the AOL and MSN chat rooms. I love how gaming itself has grown over those years as well, not only has it brought around many great and enjoyable games, it has provided a new place to immerse yourself and get involved with more roleplaying (mostly MMOs.) Sadly, it seems that most MMO developers have no place for us roleplayers. Constantly the servers, even RP-marked servers, are being filled with more and more non-roleplayers and it seems to drive away all the possible roleplaying experiences. Which really saddens me. I guess, in this long post, it all boils down to one question:

Are there any EoFF roleplayers that know of an MMO where roleplaying is still active and thriving? WoW has it's moments, but even then it seems to be filled with more and more griefers. If you do not know of any MMOs, perhaps maybe just a community for roleplaying online?

P.S. I will be getting involved with more and more roleplaying on here as well. I just need to get the creative juices flowing!

Possibly LotR Online since I hear they have a great mature community.

lulz that seems like a contradiction, sir. i know in guild wars they used to make up scenerios and such in between the guilds and within the guilds. or, you could make your own jk

LOTO had a GREAT Rping community, sadly me and WoW have a love hate relationship.

Everquest 2 also had a good RP (That was like...7 months ago, who knows now.)

I have yet to go to a AoC RP server, but I heard it can be good over there too. And I think Warhammer will have a good RP community too.

OH!

Ya, I did WoW for awhile and also AoC. I loved AoC at first... but couldn't even get myself to even RP on there because the game was so ridiculously unbalanced and had sooooooooo many bugs.

I will try Warhammer once I get paid this next week. I am hoping to hop into the beta and see how it is.

If anyone is ever down to get some RP going as well, feel free to let me know!
