Just arrived on the site and searching for a play-by-post campaign, but can't seem to make sense of the codes and tags etc...
So, most of the threads are marked "private", and it seems the ones marked "recruiting", well... aren't exactly recruiting, most are filled with character applications or simply closed.
Anyone can help a newby to the site here please ?
Thanks

Any post that still has the recruiting tag is definitely looking for players. Though, sometimes you'll find some abandoned posts that are still labeled recruiting. There are usually 3-4 new games posted a week, so if you hang around, you can definitely find one. The Tomb of Horrors PbP you posted in is recruiting, as I am in it and we are waiting for a couple more people. Shaz requested that if interested to PM him instead you posted telling him if he was interested in letting you join to PM you.
Shaz is a pretty nice guy, and good DM, but he probably won't go out of his way to get you in the game!
Per PbP Rules, you are suppose to PM the DM when interested in joining a game, not post in their thread, though lots of DMs will specifically create recruitment threads where they ask you to post your character concept.
A Private tag means they are privately playing. A Public tag means you are welcome to post (though, a lot of DMs will put public on accident and may not want you posting if not selected). A Recruiting tag means they are recruiting, of course. A Closed tag means they are done playing in that thread (though again, a lot of DMs will put closed tags instead of private tags).

Hi to one and all,
