New Player Looking for a Good Region

Postby Saint Catherines and Leiszwiesen » Thu Feb 02, 2012 8:37 am

Hi. I'm new to the Nationstates boards, but I've heard some cool things about this place from my various friends who have accounts here. I've always been big on writing, and I've done some stories and things of that nature on Writing.com before, and in talking with my friends they seem to think that this would be a good place to write some stories with people. I'm pretty new to the concept of roleplaying, but I'm hoping to get introduced to the boards pretty quickly.

Does anyone know of a good, active place where I could break in and get some experience on the roleplaying boards? Maybe a roleplaying group or one of the regions or what not? I would appreciate all the help I could get! Thanks!

Here's a roleplay I'm working on right now, if it helps anyone figure out a good home for my nation.

Xanadou is a good place to start. Try applying to our region's ranks today! :hug:

Could I get a brief idea about how active the region is, or what kind of nations or storytellers you're looking for? I just don't want to make a mistake, or cause problems in a new place.

Xanadou is an excellent place to roleplay. There are several threads to join, there are intrigues and diplomatic tensions, different alliances, commerce, romance, tourism and religion.

In my signature is a roleplay that has been going on for some time. You are very welcome to ask us questions about joining and discuss what interests you!

Saint Catherines and Leiszwiesen I sent you a telegram, tell me if you are interested.

I'll definitely be considering all the advice. On the flip side of things, are there any regions that I should avoid going to being a new player?

Would Xanadou be open to allowing me control a couple of islands for my nation? I haven't gotten much worked out just yet, but the island part is a definite.

You would have to talk to Riemaia, our regional cartographer - I'm sure she would get you some nice islands for your nation. :)

The other question I would have is, do you think I would be able to write well enough to participate in a region like Xanadou? From the looks of things after checking it out, it seems to be a huge community, and I'd hate to stick out like a sore thumb.

All I've got done so far is the roleplay up above and a travel store: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=163017

Bah! You'd be easily able to participate in our region! All we ask is that you have fun and aren't a n00b. So far you've shown to be a talented writer who can hold their own on the forums. You're honestly a breath of fresh air in my opinion. You'd be welcomed with open arms, my friend, and there's plenty in Xanadou who'd be kind enough to show you around and roleplay with you, me included. :hug:

Well, I put in an application to Xanadou. So far it's the best region I've found so far. Right now I would definitely be leaning towards Xanadou of the regions I've seen.

Yay! Well, you can count on my support. :) But since Xanadou is community driven, we'll have to see what other members say.

I hope it goes well. All I can do is hope for the best and explore around while we wait. Kinda nervous, actually!

You can always count on the people of Xanadou to roleplay with you and help you whenever needed regardless of what happens. :)

Hi, How are you? Choosing a region in Nation States is important,

others will try and convince you need to join a region with a large military

and will list all the benefits of their region, but what makes a region really great is the people around you,

the friends (or enemies) that you make on Nations States.

Here at Turtle Island we are friendly to all and just want to have a good time, sit back and talk.

If all the seriousness of some Nations States regions doesnt appeal to you, come here to talk and relax among friends.

But we also enjoy discussing serious matters, such as politics and current events.

So come and sit on the beach in the sun, here at Turtle Island

Everyone here has equal say, and all are treated alike. Also we are a newly founded,

small region where new voices won't be drowned out.

P.S.: like being silly and/or insane? You're welcome here.

This is relevant to your interests

Take a look at the regions that suit your nation, and then make a choice!
