I don't remember what exactly forced me into the rpg world, but when I was 11 (though I lied about my age in the app), I applied for a Harry Potter roleplay game at LiveJournal after seeing an ad. I was a horrible, horrible roleplayer then, using astericks for movements and filling journal entries with memes (and it really was a wonder how I was accepted and why I decided to try out for Rita Skeeter out of all the Harry Potter characters, hahaha. Thankfully, the mod suggested I choose another character), but the thing was, nobody else in the community did it properly either, until a few months (?) later when some new players arrived and (I could imagine they were peeved) corrected my roleplaying. I quit after a year or something (I have horrible sense of time) because I was getting nervous that someone would find out I lied about my age. And then I returned after another year, but I found that the things weren't as same as before since it was under another mod and some of the players had gone, and my character's spot had already been filled. I've always been on and off with roleplaying since then and I have seem to lost the ability to stay in a game for as long as I first have now. I keep missing it whenever I'm bored and I've tried out original roleplays, too, but I always come back to Harry Potter. I miss the old days when the books were still being written, when there were zillions and zillions of games to choose from. The fandom still has roleplays, all right, but somehow, it's not the same as before. I really miss my first game, though I don't even remember its name. I really wonder what the players are doing now, and if they're still roleplaying.
