Hello, all!

The bigger threads might also be overwhelming because of the sheer number of characters in them, especially as you won't know who everyone is yet. Masquerade and House Party both have a lot going on, and some of it relies on the context of other threads. Most threads have fewer participants and can be as simple as two characters meeting for the first time. If you just want a general read I would either have a look at some of the current threads (you can tap view today's posts or press the search button to bring up a list) or just have a rummage around the general Moscow board and see what catches your eye.

Don't worry about trying to read a thread if it's not gelling for you. It's not all politics and crime syndicates I promise Tongue

When I started I found the modern setting a big change that took a while to get my head around, I was used to 3rd Age WoT or general fantasy forums too. From what you said in your first post, if you are feeling a similar way to how I did then my advice would be to not get too caught up on the details of it being the "real" world. I felt I was going to get stuff "wrong" but this is still a fantasy world. So long as you've looked at the info on the main site you'll be fine. As Nox said, this rp has been going for over a decade and the lore is always expanding - no one expects you to read and remember it all, so definitely don't stress about anything like that. Come join us when you're comfortable and ready but don't pile on any unnecessary pressure. We all do this for fun Smile

As an aside, the reason I like coloured dialogue is just for ease of reading. When I write a response it helps me to make sure I haven't missed anything, and sometimes I need to refer back quickly to how something was phrased. The colours make it easy to find especially of it's a long post.
