I started RPing back in the late 90s, in AOL Public Chat rooms (high five to anyone that recognizes the name "RhyDin"). The feeling of those, with the multiple chat rooms each being a different realm in a vast universe, where there was no telling what you would encounter in any one place...it was an incredible feeling. They died off due to AOL being AOL, and I continued RPing with a group I met there until that came to a grinding halt as well.
Since then, I've been looking for a place that could capture that same, magical feeling. The possibility of taking any character, established or homemade, and dropping them into the infinite sandbox and watching them grow in ways you'd never expect...it's something I never thought I'd find again. It just didn't seem possible. I searched and searched through forums, and had just about resigned myself to the fact that the good old days were gone.
Then I found this place. Somehow, not only has it captured that feeling of infinite, ever growing possibilities I'd longed for but it somehow surpassed it. Let's be real, nostalgia makes everything look better, but even with my nostalgia of the old days the Omniverse STILL blows it all out of the water. Staff and members alone make this simply the best place site I've ever been a part of. The interaction, the feeling that you can really make a difference if you just work for it...it's just incredible. My only regret is that I didn't find it sooner.
I'd go on, but I came home early tonight to make sure I finish my secondary saga post, which ought to say enough in itself.
Happy Omniversary!
