    I do a lot of combos, simply because there are a lot of times where there just isn't enough to post if you're in the middle of a back and forth exchange with another player. Combos help keep clutter out of the thread and it sets my OCD at ease. It also makes games more accessible to players who have busy lives because they don't end up having to sift through multiple pages worth of back and forth interactions between players, as the posts are separated into scenes more than they are separated into a bunch of "my character does this. Tag.".

    I will agree with the others though, and say that @Sinrebirth is very fun to do combos with because if your characters have a lot of world building behind them like mine do, he'll actually take the time to learn about that and work with. His games are also really fun to be in for the same reason.

    I do like a good combo. I usually do 10 a week. It’s very therapeutic to get a good scene off and I like to think players enjoy reading them when they go up.

    Reynar, we will do combos.

    Also, combos remind me of the time I wrote a novel with @Kahn_Iceay so that's more reason to love them.

    Last post yesterday at noon, and Hoopers almost at the bottom of the page. Forums seem to be popping these days. Has quarantine-life been a boon for our dear RPF?

    Hope you all are doing well and staying safe. Crazy times out there!

    @Imperial_Hammer !!!

    Yay! Party time!!

    To answer your question, I do think that the coronapocalypse-quarantine has allowed for a very REAL surge in activity and creativity here in the RPF! My feeling is we are all making the best of our circumstances. The community that writes together, stays together. Here's hoping to see you with a bit more frequency! You know you are always, always welcome here at home.

    I must admit @greyjedi125 that I've been thinking more about this place. I've been reaching the bottom of the well for my go-to timewaster, video games. You can only play so many games of Minecraft, so many runs of Europa Universalis, and so many campaigns as Geralt/the Dragonborn/the Courier before it starts to grow a little stale. Same old beats, same old set ups, same old challenges. The past-time is straining under heavy use! May need to shake things up a bit.

    *Sees Impy*

    I_H !! Hope youve been well too!

    Yea the RPF is a buzzing right now, but it feels long lasting. Because at the start of quarantine there was like a general hesitation and uneasiness and now it’s like a true resurgence!

    Hope you can join us you ole gamer you!

    Well........... LOL!! I'm only playing Warframe on console these days, so I hear ya on that. I STRONGLY encourage you to join 'at least' ONE of the many wonderful games being currently offered in the RPF. Trust me, if I could, I would join them all. We definitely have some strong creative forces showcasing their talents this summer. Don't let that opportunity pass you by!! Just DO it!!

    *nudge nudge*

    Actually already in one, @greyjedi125 . Sinrebirth's fantastic The Last Epitaph, where I give him plenty of headache waiting for my posts, haha.

    That being said, I have been kicking around an idea for something to do. Not a game, but some community service projects.

    With @Sinrebirth and @Corellian_Outrider's permission, I would love to (help) rehabilitate a couple of threads. There are a few that I think could use a new coat of paint. Their HTML got all mangled up in the move, some of the info is out of date, and I think that's just a shame! These include:

    How to Make a New RPG
    Our Games and How to Play Them
    The RPF FAQ v1
    The RPF Community Center 3.0

    Its not the sexiest of work, but I'd be happy to contribute to it! And with community engagement of course. Would probably set up a "Public Works" thread in the RPR to centralize discussion on it. There is a fair bit of updating that needs to be done in the advice related threads that would best be guided by more active players.

    *merely smiles* Ah, the nostalgia that waltzed in. Come and stay awhile, @Imperial_Hammer, my old friend.

    The RPF has been calling to you. ;)

    @DarthIshyZ : The Nether update is welcome, but it does make the game considerably harder (which is not a bad thing). Hoglins are no fun until you have diamond+ armor.

    @DarkLordoftheFins : Hey there friend-o. How's life over on the other side of the pond these days?

    @Ktala : Glad to see you Ktala. I hear things are going well for you these days. So happy to see it!

    @Darth_Elu : And of course, good ol' Elu. I see you're doing some GMing currently! Good for you! Creative idea as always. Love me a good class system.

    @Adalia-Durron : Very kind of you to say so! Hows the WNU doing these days? Healthy inflow? I remember once upon a time I used to do some recruiting there for RPF players. Too many people write the WNU off - I think it has so much potential for good and for synergy!

    Its quiet right now, kinda disappointing. I expected an influx due to the Pandemic............got a few but not many at all. A good bunch of 'friendly' welcoming people there though, some awesome older and younger people!!
