How do I roleplay /tg/? I've been reading some screencapped

Roleplay websites are inherently weird, most are set up by weebs and bronies to yell BAKKA at eachother till the sun explodes.

Most of the stories on here are from Table TopRole Playing Games, pen and paper games mostly. They're a bit more interactive so try looking into some different systems? Gonna get flammed for it but check out critcal role, a D&D web series with some pretty good rp.

As for the last part yeh, it is pretty good fun. Try find some friends that play RPG's, try get some into it or just jump into it online/in a flgs.

Where would I go about finding some of these pen and paper games? Are they like online or do I need to buy actual board games? Is pen and paper all I need to play them? Sorry for the interrogation but I am pretty new to this stuff hehe.

If you're going to try and get into an online roleplaying COMMUNITY, I'd recommend against it.

Spoony was completely correct when he said that those are pretty much run by an inner circle of friends, and if you're not in that inner-circle, you'll get fucked over hard.

Years ago, I had a similar experience where some fuck head kicked me out of a Star Wars RP community on steam because I called one of his friends an idiot after a huge, annoying, argument where we introduced our faction and this kid didn't like it even though we were approved by the head admin of the community, so he talked behind our backs and used his stupid little "rp character" to permanently disable our faction. So, I did the reasonable thing (seeing as the idiot over-looked the fact that I was an admin on around 4 of the Star Wars RP groups) and posted the argument chat-log as an announcement in all the groups I was admin of, called out the head admin for abusing and exploiting his position to make his friend feel better, and generally tore down the community as a whole.

It died about a month later.

My tip to you, use the game-finder threads on /tg/ so you don't have to go through the hassle of being pigeon-holed because a bunch of egotistical losers don't like their power fantasies being interrupted.

Since you seem to be asking "How do I get into roleplaying games," I will answer that question.

In short, find a community of people who are interested in having you play with them. People often advertise games you can join online on roll20, mythweaver, or here on /tg/. Depending on where you live, your friendly local game store (FLGS) may have a decently popular p&p scene that you get into.

In order to play, you'll have to be willing to familiarize yourself with the game system the gamemaster is using for his game, socialize with people who will likely be total strangers, and get over the initial awkwardness that is playing pretend with some impromptu acting in the name of answering what you'd do in response to hypothetical situations, which is all roleplaying games really are.

Loudly voice your opinions on topics you have scarce knowledge about. Recommend GURPS to everyone regardless of the kind of campaign they run. Also cry magical realm at any RPG plot concept you don't like.
