o1. Basic Joining Instructions
Joining Daloom is easy. Locate the 'register' button and register. From there, you should get a conformation email, and immediately you'll be ready to get in on the fun!
By clicking on 'Profile' on top, you can navigate to the 'Edit Profile' button and change things - your display image, your icon, your signature, your pronouns... don't worry if there's still things you can't fill out. You don't need to have everything filled out - you just joined, after all!
o2. Links to Look At
Truthfully, anything in the rules & guides section is useful. Here you can see site history, our currency system guide, forum rules... anything you need can be found here. If there's something we're missing, contact a staff member with your suggestion or post in the suggestions board.
And, of course, should you get lost along the way or if you're not certain about a specific rule- or even help with coding tables, or editing graphics - you can ask for help in the section labelled help.
One more important place to look is the announcements board, where staff members will specify when things have changed.
o3. Creating A Character
This one's a fun one, but can be the hardest step when you've just joined.
First, you'll want to head over to the character admissions board, which has the character application you'll be needing.
Once you're done editing, save your changes and mention an admin in a new post in the same thread - aspen, who currently is accepts character applications, so just do an @ and their username (or for Aspen, you do @ admin) and they'll check it when they have time. Characters are usually accepted within a few hours at the max.
Not sure where to start with a character, but really ready to jump into roleplay? There's an adoptions board for character wanted ads posted by members. You might want to take one of these if you're feeling uninspired or want to have connections established in-roleplay already!
o4. Getting Into the Community
We have a shoutbox on the side, but not everyone uses it. It's highly suggested that you join the discord - Discord is a messaging app, mostly centered around gamers (but obviously suited for other things, such as roleplay discussion). It's free and doesn't contain any malware!
You may also want to post a thread in the introductions board so you can get to know some of the familiar faces of Daloom.
We also have a chit chat forum for general topics, whether it's writing, art, or anything else that might not fit under either category!
From there, you should be ready to enter the world of Daloom. Thanks for reading!
