Welcome to Serious RP Nexus! So, you've finished signing up, and don't know what to do now. Don't worry, I'll explain through my poor grammar and spelling!
Character Bio's
Here is where the magic happens. After you finish signing up, you will need a character for you to roleplay as. To find this, go to the Character Bio Guide at the Forum's home page. There will certainly be a horde of different names. Ignore those, and go to the pinned tab with the red thumb tack. Not the blue one, the red one! Once you click on this, instructions will be there and the rest will be a breeze. Copy and paste the Format, create a new thread in the Character Bio board, fill in your characters info, (Be Creative!) and you'll be on your way to roleplaying!
What Now?
Congrats on finishing your bio! Now, you will receive approval from one of our admins, and after that, you will need a Google Plus account. Creating one of these is easy if you don't have one already. (If you already have a plus, skip to the next step.) Here is the link; plus.google.com. Sign up there, and continue on.
Hangouts
Google Hangouts is an effective way to roleplay. Live messaging provides excellent information, similar to a game client. Provide us with your Google Plus name and we will add you to our group chat on Hangouts, and thats where the REAL magic happens! Excuse our language on the OOC (Out Of Character) chat, we joke around a lot. Please keep in mind to not spam the IC chat that is what the OOC chat is for, and to reserve that exclusively for roleplay actions. Here are simple, but useful commands for hangouts.
/me (Used for Third Person actions, example. Doom Wanderer kicks the soccer ball across the field, scoring a goal.)
Ctrl + b (Used to bold text)
Ctrl + i (Used to Italicize text)
Ctrl + u (Used to underline text)
