It's not, actually! I was going for Clover but it was already taken. Thanks for the welcome (and confetti!).Kestrel said:

You're Celtic? I didn't know that.Xylin said:And I was thinking clove as in the spice. Makes me think of Fall and pumpkin pie, and Thanksgiving, and pumpkin pie and then good food and Thanksgiving and pumpkin pie... I might like pumpkin pie.
maybe.
But clovers are pretty too so, there you go. And, as everyone knows, a four leafed clover is lucky. When I was a girl I was convinced that there couldn't be any leprechauns in the city we lived in because I had never found a four leafed clover and I was convinced you only found them in areas where there were leprechauns. I still kind of think that. I also make sure to never both toadstools, or rings of mushrooms. I try to be a good Celt and remember some of the ways of my ancestors.
Anywhoo, site is large so please take a gander at my standard greeting and hopefully it'll help explain a few things.
Greetings and salutations!
Welcome to RP Nation, where Roleplay is our business.
You've found us, congratulations for choosing the best RP site on the whole intertubes, we're glad you're here and a part of the expanding universe that is RP Nation. Also, now you're officially one of the cool kids.
Before you being your quest to becoming one of the old hats here at RPN, please do take a second and take a look at the site rules. You can find them here: INFO - Official Site Rules | RpNation.com - Best Roleplay Forum.
Unlike the Pirate code, they aren't more like suggestions but rules that we take a bit seriously. If, however, you've got a few pieces of eight you'd like to swing our way, we're always more than happy to take it. (I said, the rules weren't suggestions, never said we weren't piratey mate).
Once you've had a glance over the rules there's more information to be had here: Site Questions & Information | RpNation.com - Best Roleplay Forum. You can find something there to answer just about any question you might have.
Now then, I know that you have to answers that you're wanting answered now and the first is, you can join any RP that is open. You can find the different RP genres here: Roleplays | RpNation.com - Best Roleplay Forum
They're set up by genre so if you're looking for that Belgariad fandom RP (sorry, none yet exists here) then you'll know you aren't going to be looking in the futuristic genre. Each genre has an interest check at the top of the page and you can peruse this to see if anyone is wanting to create an RP.
If you are trolling the RPs and you just gotta make your own futuristic version of the Elenium, then you can pick the genre (future or fandom? I don't know!) and create an interest check. In the interest check you can tell the whole world about your RP and what you want to do with it. If you get enough people to say Aye! then you create your RP.
Do NOT under any, uncertain circumstances create an interest check in the RP forum! Make sure that you create your interest check in the interest check forums! If you create an interest check in the RP forums then you have just created an RP and all the threads that go along with that. Then administration has to go through and delete all those threads. That is a hassle and a pain in the rear so please make sure that you are posting an interest check in the interest check forums ONLY. Your friendly neighborhood staff thanks you for your cooperation.
If you have any questions, issues, or concerns, don't hesitate to get in touch with either the moderators of your forum (the genre), the Super moderators, or even the admin staff. You can do that here: Site Questions & Information
If you have any questions you need to address to me, please tag me in your comments as I don't always get to every single response in every welcome thread and I end up missing a lot of questions. You can do that by using the @ before my handle.
Again, welcome to RPN and happy RPing.

clove said:Hi all! I'm new to this site but I've been roleplaying on and off for about four years or so now. My favorite genres are fantasy (low/high/urban/whatever), horror, sci-fi, and post-apocalyptic/dystopian. I'm not really sure what else to say but I'm looking forward to getting involved here.
I hope we'll meet again around the site. :3
