    I am new to this game and do not yet know the dirrection I will want to take. Off-the-bat, I would say that crafting will probably catch my interest the most.


    Personal characteristics (keywords about your personality):

    What do you seek in the Entropian community: Games tend to be alot more fun, and less tedious, when played with others: I would like to develop a small in-game social group with which to participate in my chosen activities.

    What kind of help are you hoping to get by joining a society: Just looking for some help starting in, and understanding the dynamics of, the game.

    How can you help to make this happen: I am a quick learner and am willing to take the lead and organise if needed. Being on planet Cyrene, I have yet to actually see another player, so applying here is probably the biggest thing I can do at this point to

    Notable skills in, or interest for...

    Right now I haven't the faintest idea of what I would like to pursue as I am not a depositor because I just started my 1st year of college and my 3rd year of High School, time is not on my side most of the time. I am hoping that I can sink more time into this while doing well in my classes late in the school year.

    Personal characteristics (keywords about your personality): I am easy to get along with and do my best to stay open minded. My true downfall is that I stay quiet a lot.

    What do you seek in the Entropian community: To make this learning process all the more fun and all the less tedious and boring by having others there to talk to. Being a loner is not fun by my personal experience.

    What kind of help are you hoping to get by joining a society: Help of any kind would be welcome to me; tips, moral support and the like.

    How can you help to make this happen: Like I said I am open to learning different techniques to various activities and I am easy to get along with. The only problem you might have with me is just my quietness but that tends to dissipate with time.

    I see there is not much reaction in this forum to the newbies applying. This is because this thread is not managed that much anymore by Dalas, however the society always has some people online, so if you apply to the soc in the society terminal, we will try to help you out as much as we can.

    Personal characteristics (keywords about your personality): I am currently working in Law Enforcement as an officer in my state and a addicted gamer. I game to release and really enjoy it. I am very laid back and coming from my real life experiences I am adaptable to many types of people. My main off-time spending is gaming with my wife and its already hard to find games we both like, and somehow we both like this game. My wife is a stay at home mom,"getting back surgery dec.10th" so she really needs to find something to keep her busy and mind off the pain. She is not as laid back but has a huge attention to detail thing thats annoying but comes in handy..haha *coughs*

    What do you seek in the Entropian community: To find our spots and join in on the fun.

    What kind of help are you hoping to get by joining a society: Advice, good advice. We both realized after hours of playing that we were getting nowhere and it wasn't that enjoyable mostly because we really don't know what to do. If we had goals and things to do other then chat, we would be peachy. We don't expect hand outs. But it would be nice to be included in a society that is active and wants to bring in new people to boost and help push them to becoming good members.

    How can you help to make this happen:I'm currently working 3 days a week and my wife is a housewife, so we have time if people are willing to spend it with us. We do really well as a team and I know we would be a good addition to any society. In other games we are in guilds and Gaming Orgs, so we are not strangers to this thing, just a stranger to the game.

    Cheers all and thank you for reading my babble! :)

    Hi there and welcome.

    To be honest the idea we had when starting this society is not really what we are doing these days. But the society itself is growing pretty well, so you are very welcome to join and learn the game. There are helpful people in the soc to tell you all about the game.

    There's a little tutorial about how to join a society: http://www.entropiaplanets.com/wiki/Joining_a_Society.
