Hello, Meridia, is a brand new original animanga fantasy site the hits all your points. We have little lore to get caught up in and our application is short and sweet with no word count requirement so you can get started quickly. As we are in a high fantasy setting, there are various races such as Humans, Elves, Goblins, Beastfolk and Demons, with more planned to release as the site grows. We are stats lite, with no math involved, and used mainly to determine what types of abilities your character possesses. Our Discord is very minimal and we don't require any of our members to join and is used mainly for chatting and tagging.

Ignoring some newer skins out there that can toggle between light or dark mode, I was wondering what preferences everyone has toward lighter skins and darker skins? What do you think the pros and cons are of each?

A fantasy world on the verge of ruin, until a bunch of people are isekai'd into the world upon their death so that the can combat(or aid) the forces of evil. The isekai'd players would be able to level up, gain skills and experience like that in a game while the rest of the world sees that as the unique ability given to the chosen "heroes". ( Think Rising of a Shield Hero. )

An Overlord based RP without the isekai element. Instead the roleplay would focus on the world and the adventurers and factions inside that world. Just like in the manga/anime, the world would still work similar to a video game with magic tiers, martial arts, job classes, quests, and different playable races, all of which would be considered normal. This would scratch that VRMMO itch that I believe some people (including myself) have, without dealing with the whole, 'I'm stuck in a video game' trope, which would free players to develop their characters more and actually be a part of the world instead of just visitors in it.

I do like the webpages as its far more customizable, but I also like the fact that with the info in the posts, any moderator can edit and change the info without having to get access the the admin cp. This really helps, especially when getting a site off the ground, where you need to change some info around, but it also allows it to be searchable using the search feature on the forum. I can never decide. But everyone here has brought up good points.

Thinking about a site that provides a platform for many small scale roleplays to take place on the same board. Mostly just small intimate roleplays to build community and to allow those who have the RP itch to get in there and write and not have to dedicate a massive amount of time or energy in a site wide roleplay

Sent you a DM.

I was just wondering what everyone prefers when creating their own roleplay forum? Do you use jcink's webpage feature to display your rules and lore, or do you prefer to make posts in a subforum? What do you think the pros and cons of each are?

To go along with what Beetle was saying. That's why I tend to make my posting templates, whether they are for personal use or a default template for use on my forum, have a "Please Avoid" section. Though typically if i am running the site, the Mini profiles usually have that info as well. This makes it astronomically easier to keep track of everyone's triggers and preferences with very little effort. It also helps when you have a roleplayer claiming "they didnt know" when its right there in the post.

Its been several years since I have actually completed a new game.

I use "Please Avoid" instead of using the term "triggers". I agree with most of the others here. I feel like using something as serious as the word "trigger", which usually elicits negative emotions, too liberally would undermine the seriousness of the situation. I feel as using the term "Please Avoid" encompasses more topics and includes more people. I would never consider something I am uncomfortable roleplaying as a trigger per se, as it wouldn't effect me like someone who it may be a trigger for, but I have no problem asking people to avoid the subject with me entirely if the term "Please Avoid" is used. After all, the comfort of roleplayers is the whole reason we have such terms to begin with.

Yes! This would be amazing!


I've also always wanted to do a VRMMO since most of them if not all are gone. I miss it and have so many ideas =/

I would love to be a part of something like this!
