Gallentean new to the board!
« on: 20 Mar 2013, 09:30 »

Hey there! Looking for some RP opportunities in EVE, especially for Gallente.

I know about 'forceposing' and general etiquette from oldschool MU*s, and EVE seems like a great sandbox to make characters in. There's a great volume of fluff, and the game has a lot of different speeds within it.
What's always drawn me to it is the stories that people tell, or even CCP framing changes within context of a living world, run by players. 

I'd love to find a corp I can be a Gallentean newbie at the game, and possibly also as a capsuleer, to enrich the skill queue/mining/missioning/attempting to blast things aspects of all these mechanics.

Glad to have stumbled upon the boards!

Welcome! I'd like to chat with you in-game both in-character and out-of-character! I've got a couple of things brewing on the Gallente side that could use some more interested bodies and we're entirely noob friendly (being Gallente noobs ourselves!)

If you're interested, look me up in game. My character name is Lialus Raithe or you can send me a PM here. Welcome to Backstage!

Yup.

At least in ancient MU*speak, a "pose" (:<action>) is the same as /me <action>.

:zaps everyone with a flashy thingie and wanders out, confident that no one here will remember how old she is, because :flashy thingie:.

Yeah, it means during in your /pose you're purposefully/inadvertently forcing an action on the other guy/ or otherwise presuming his actions. I have no idea if that's at all relevant in MMO RPing XP

Hm... I guess that really was kind of a long time ago! I certainly couldn't imagine anything like EVE XP  If EVE is celebrating its 10th anniversary, then...
