Hello everyone,
I am donjong and am here looking to join my first ever PbP game. My first ever TTRPG was D&D 4E which my friends and I played for a short while before switching to 5E. We enjoyed that system and played it for years, finishing a couple of long campaigns and numerous short ones. But over time, I grew tired of the system and its flaws and design choices. After dabbling in various other systems, I was introduced to the old-school style of play approximately a year ago. I quickly found out that this is the playstyle (and refereeing-style!) which appeals to me the most. Nowadays I run games using the OSE system (my players have just begun exploring the halls of Stonehell).
Since I don't get enough of tabletop gaming, I've come to this place looking to get my fix. I am completely new to PbP, and am not completely sure what I am looking for (since I don't yet know much about how these games tend to look). For me, one of the best things about old-school systems is the robust 'procedures', and I'd prefer an old-school procedure-heavy game, whether it's crawling hexes or dungeons, but other than that the specific choice of system is not very important to me.
Not really sure where to look but I will explore these forums a bit and see what I can learn.
