Hi,
New here. This looks like it could be fun. Any advice on what to do, where to go?
Are there any good regions/groups worth joining? I don't really have time for roleplaying cabinet meetings but would appreciate something more than the OS.
Cheers

Greetings, Angolola!
Check out Nanakaland's stickied thread above (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=101878) for links to FAQs and other useful information about interacting and role-playing on the forums. There is a helpful section for new players here (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2317520#2317520).
Do have a look at these, but it's all only guidance! Enjoy the experience, and don't get frustrated if some of the longer-standing players refuse to interact with you from the off - we've all seen so many dumb antics from new players in the past that we're unlikely to be very responsive until we can see some examples of your role-playing. Oh, and try not to simply jump into IC (in character) threads without warning - at least ask the originator by telegram if you can join first. As for OOC (out of character) threads (like this one), jump right in - but try to have read all the thread first!
Finally, don't take it too seriously - please? And don't do anything too stupid, or we might take an interest IC!!
LOL,
WN

Good advice guys, but Angolola the best thing to do is just enjoy yourself. I'd say a bloody good region is Texas,'cause its real friendly and you don't have to be a texan! we have allsorts of aporting activities, and if you join now you can get into the Hockey league!

I'll be your arch-nemesis if you like. I'm not doing much else around here.
