Just out of curiosity, now that we have our Facebook fan page up, to see where people come from. ^^ Even if you joined five years ago, feel free to answer!

Hey, I remember this poll! There was one just like it a long time ago. Lets see... First off, some time in February, 2007 I did a google search for role playing sites. But instead of finding this site, I found a list of top 50 proboards sites. There were a few sites that looked interesting, but what really caught my eye was this site... in the number one spot! So I don't know if this counts as Google or Other. Either way, that list is long gone now, but I'm still thankful for it bringing me here.

Wolfgoddess told me about this site, back when she was still going to my school...not a school on the other side of the country *sobs*
Anyway, I think it's ironic that she showed me the site, and I have eight times as many posts as her now...

Lilypup told me about this site back in June. Came in here, and started weakly, as many of you remember... (Looks at Rup and Kit and Hiroku)
And that was almost a year ago now. Fun times, fun times... remember Dreads and They're Taking Over.

^^ These are fun to read. Yeah, there was a poll like this a long time ago. I could've added the Top 50 RP Forums as an option... I don't know why I didn't. xD I wonder how dangerous it would be to advertise a forum on Neo toda. They seem to have gotten ten times stricter on enforcing their rules.

-hides from Brenda-
I found this magical site in a bar. Yes, a bar. I was glancing over at some (super hot) chick's laptop, and she was on this site. Being a huge (but closet) rping geek, I scribbled the name on my arm, and checked it out the next day.
Dunno how on earth I was functioning enough to write though... let alone see the bloody screen.
<3 I'm thankful I was though, I can't imagine life without TRPS... (actually yes I can. It'd be supermega boring, like it was before I came... XD)

Found it through Neo I think. It was a long time ago and my memory ages faster than I do, least I think it does, on purpose, just to spite me.
And Brenda... TNT have gotten very strict with off site advertising but I don't see what they're problem is when they're more than happy to let ads on there showing what can be explicit content or content a parent shouldn't want to see anyways. XD. I get noticed anytime I try and post a 1x1 ad... it's uncanny.

Wow Beebster (I love making nicknames) That is epic. Finding it at a bar...
Sorry, that was niether Lily or I. Lily and I are too young to go to a bar and niether of us have green hair.

...Beebster. Sounds too much like Beiber. -shudders- Bars rule though. I do most of my work while in bars...
Oh well x3 -sigh- I'm totally gonna stalk that bar next time I go to Cali, just in case she goes back (rare chance, lol).

I wish I had green hair. By far the most awesome how-I-found-TRPS story ever, though. And Morg, that's unfortunate. :\ What inappropriate ads do they display...? I know I was disappointed when they first started sponsoring Nickelodeon and stuff. :\ They have become so commercialized... it really is a pity.

They went through a lingerie phase at one point... any other things :/ Not something a teeny minor should set eyes on since its all very lacy or not very much to it... if you catch the drift. TNT just talk chaff nowadays, contradictory plums. Neopets was awesome for it's family feel and it's lost its character what with this sponsorship. It like football and such... screw the customers, it's about the profits.

I goggled "Role Play Sites", saw this was number one and bypassed it to join the number two site. But then I read some of the posts and decided against it thus not joining anything. A few weeks (maybe a month) later I goggled it again and searched all over the place, eventually giving up and clicking on The Role Play Site. I read all the posts in Animal Project 997 and decided wow this looks awesome. Then joined. :-)
One of my best decisions ever.

Some random person told me via Neopets. Never found out who they were after joining on here.

I'm sure that wasn't me Akira. This is still my first and only role play site after almost a year now. (June 3 and I've been on here exactly a year)

I was googling rp sites and this popped up. Cant remember first rp, I do know it was Lily though. Lol that was my rp buddy for a while. Joined June 6th of last year, and love it here!

@kid: I think it was Double Day Halloween. That role play was fun... I miss my character on that rp...
And I just realized that Lord Ba'al is Morg. I had been wondering who that was for a month now...
And on June 3, I will be here for a year, on June 6 Lily will (Finally) turn 15, on July 18 band camp starts back, and today my mom and dad have been married for 16 years.
I love summer.
I'm also interested who joined via facebook, via DA, or via Myspace. Has anyone done so?

Ha. I don't remember much about when I joined. All I know is that when I introduced myself, Brenda responded, and she had an avatar with a pair of flip flops on it. XD Random memory much? But I cannot for the life of me recall my first roleplay... :/ All I know is that I sucked majorly when I first joined. XD
