(OOC) Can you just hop in or do you need something else?
| I think you can just hop in with your new character, just remember to sign your character name
| Hop in and wing it. You'll be stopped by a mod or other players if something needs fixing. :p
| Wow
| Well, first of all, welcome
I'm no admin, but i'm one of the designated GM for the KiOS ARG, Hige!
I think winging it is part of the appeal, but I would personally reccomand thinking about a character sheet if you do anything ARG related, or if you go on a run! This is a measure against being mary-sue-ish and just pulling drek out of your ass.
You can also speak as a random anon and answer threads for the full immersion!
Other than that, just dont sign dialogue, its not needed
| If you ever want to speak with people, and Stormy, the mod I would reccomand creating more OOC threads or simply joining a discord, most are ARG related, but simple usage of a general chat is always useful
Of course, leaving some mystery as to who you are playing and their backstory and motive is often part of the appeal
Here is my discord if you want to join, or if anyone wants to join really :D

| And also, I do to sign
| >>378118 shit sent that too early. I need to sign because since I'm on data my user thing is always changing
| >>378119
For dialogue, its preffered to usually go and do something like this
>Hige turns to Parralax
"We were suposed to be in there to steal the paydata, not the booze from the Omae's cabinet you drekhead slot!"
See, you name you character and their actions, it flows better and doesnt seem jarring
And Ids matter little, just dont RP other's characters and no one will mind about a switching ID
-Hige
| Okay cool thanks
| Please just throw yourself in, we have enough setting bubbles uwu.
also, standard roleplay courtesey and all that, don't be a dick and stuff.
| Of course. Btw, is it cool if I have a sheet tracking my shit irl? I like the feel of it and stuff. It just lists the shit my character has and the money he has aswell.

| Welcome, by the way. If you haven't yet, please be sure to read the colored threads pinned at the top of the board.
| >>378268 Thank you for the welcoming! I read all the colored threads before I started anything, just to make sure I was soing this right.
##Janitor:Stormy##
| A few things that probably aren't covered up there, though:
a) Setting threads can only take place in Glitch City or nearby.
b) It is strongly suggested that you participate in messageboard threads more than settings, unless there's a bar or other quest you want to get involved in.
c) All setting threads are open. If you can find a way to get to a location, you'll be able to interact with the other players there.
Closed, or threads open only to the OP and one or two other people, are prohibited. Please keep any setting that's supposed to be "out of the public eye" to a different platform, such as Discord.
d) You don't need a setting for everything, especially mundane things like picking up an item you've purchased- unless it leads directly to a quest or encounter.

That's more than fine. I personal keep track of how much mons and items my character has as well.
| Am I late to the welcoming party? Ah well, welcome anyway! I still consider myself a pretty new person as well, so let's get along~
You'll see me around playing Evening, so look out for her and I'll get you roped in, especially in a message thread, I swear~

I'll second most of everything here. I tend to post as an anon/under different names a lot, but recently I've been sticking to Khora, Chisa and Yukiko. I can't quite guarantee anything, but feel free to approach them if you'd like! -Archarin
