Hello?

Posts : 4

Uh, Hi? My name is Sleeping Imagination, or you can call me Sleeping. I won't give my age for the moment, but this is my first experience with RP's. I think I understand the basic concept. Anyway, I hope to become, friends, with you guys/girls. I may need some help with learning the way to do things but hopefully some very kind people will be willing, hopefully. Anyway, I have a character I made for mostly fanfiction but he should work. Can someone please tell me the ranking systems and such, thank you. I also saw a, Kage, post on someone's 'hello' post. Can someone tell me what it takes to become Kage? Is he a really long term awesome player or did he just make a strong character, want to be a Kage and got the position. If so, man that's so dumb. $At Wits\' End$ I hope this website, isn't like, abandoned or something, that would be sooo awkward. XD

Hello! Everything you need to know is in Rules and Guidelines Here (Clicky Me!). Also there is no Kage spots open but I do believe that you have to be asked to be the Kage or something like that...I'm not too sure aha.

And Welcome!

You were the Kage I saw, that's pretty cool. Don't know if this is illegal or not, replying to my own hello message I mean, but would you mind answering a question? How long did it take you to become a Kage and how do spots for Kage's become open. Death or other things? Sorry if this is illegal on the rules, I have read them but there's just so many $At Wits\' End$ I try and remember them the best I can, and will read them over again if needed.

The method of becoming a Kage has varied overtime, but mainly it's given to staff members whose activity and skill are undoubtedly reliable, and so it's not really something you can "earn" through a particular strategy. While I believe there have been instances in the past where a Kage has been appointed by a nomination/vote process amongst the entire site, this occurs very rarely. The best advice I can give you is just to do the best you can to impress everyone with your commitment and talent at writing.

Oh, and welcome to US new blood. Wink

Thanks. I guess I'm just a bit nervous, this being my first time trying one of these sites. I see that all the people who have replied are really kind, that is kind of reassuring. Anyway, thank all of you for the warm welcome and I wish you all luck in doing whatever you're doing. Smile

These. I think John's answered your question, but as Alex said, we don't bite. Not all of us, anyway.

Hm I'm studying Psychology next year, so was wondering, what's the background behind the name? Anything special? Or do you just like sleep and imagination? xD

Hi btw. I will probably be one of the people who will be looking at your Character Application ^^

Sleeping is basically a different person, made up of my depression, problems and fear. The sadness, constant fear of being watched/hunted. Along with the fear of my families problems, my sister likes to 'Have a boxing match' with herself. If you know what I mean. Along with my mom wanting to die and my dad having Parkinson's. Anyway, it's basically the person I become when I'm alone. As of now, I'm alone, so I am far more serious, sad, scared, etc. I feel I should give you a truthful answer, if I'm going to be friends with people here. Don't read the problems if you don't want too. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

ADD, ADHD, Depression, Paranoia, almost suicidal mother, cutting sister, depressed sister, high ego brother, 19 year old sister who drinks, has 'fun' on the living room couch and has a boyfriend who's in jail. A mean dad who makes fun of me, my sister, and yells. Along with Parkinsons disease, a possibility of a heart attack, and depression. I also have spazzy sleep walking sessions. Hitting my dad/mom, running around the house. Running to walls is another, bullied at school. Teachers hate me, for no reason, I'm a decent student. I have maybe 2 friends, who I'm pretty sure only want to be friends with me because it makes them popular. I used to do things I regret, 'smoking' is one. And a bad, bad, bad, bad, case of guilt. Everything that happens, be it a family who dies, a crippled man/woman/child. I cry when I see these things, and usually blame myself. I have a bad case of never finishing anything important, no matter how hard I try. Bad case of anger and snappy comments.

Well, that should be everything. And if you want to know my age, just PM me and ask. I'll tell you there, thank you for reading, and if not, you can start again here.

So to answer the question, the name comes from me realizing, years ago, that I have a hard time being happy and probably never will be. There's your answer, I'll see you guys later, I'll be here, waiting for a reply. Smile

Good luck doing whatever you're doing, be it writing or feeding your family.
