Evening there, Wessex. Thought I'd introduce myself and give a short background on myself, considering my application on registration to join this Guild, Clan, Group, Kinship, so on. It looks fantastic, the ideas, the levels of dedication and thoroughness and detail that I have seen in even the handful of pages of information I've gleamed over - it's one of those clans that gets you excited for no reason other than the clan itself and the implications and potential within the clan to grow, expand and ultimately provide a lasting experience that can fill my desire/urge to roleplay.
So, as for me, my normal Alias, is Panzin. I have been roleplaying on the internet since I was a young lad, roleplaying starwars on a chatroom. After the years I played on that, any game I touched was something I converted into a personal roleplay - singleplayers, multiplayers, MMO's - the lot. Singleplayers are fun to roleplay in, until you reach the breaking point where the immersion simmers and fails if only for the game mechanics or lack of peers. So are multiplayer games, but finding true, developed roleplaying experiences within them are few and far-between, although I have found one. As for MMO's - roleplay is nearly impossible with the mechanics, lack-of-choice and overall attitude/maturity of the community at large.
I am a Basic Administrator on the foremost roleplaying community on Garrys Mod, and a Commander/Divisional Leader of a sub-group within the HL2 section of roleplay within the community, of the Combine. If you're familiar with Half-Life 2 at all, it's basically us taking it and twisting the canon to immense levels where there is comparitive realism, and maximum fun. So, being in charge of 20 or so people, and indirectly in command of 150+ people within one, single, group of the roleplay community is a sign as to the actual numbers we have. That being said, sometimes there is a time when you need another hobby, and route of roleplay. Roleplaying as a Combine for 6 months does get stale, and so does the responsibility that needs attending - and something that this community and game could, potentially, offer is a relaxing outlet where I can fight, lead, relax and craft, roleplay feverishly or merely chat to others - which needless to say, would be most desireable.
However, I'm under no illusions that my expectations will be met or these things will happen. Things do go wrong, the game bonks out, or the clan moves away from it to another game. But, I'll give it a try - and that is really all you can ever do.
