Getting Started with Role Play
Get Active
Make sure you are active and attentive on Discord and our Role Play group in world. You want to know when businesses are opening, when people are throwing events or gathering and attend them! This is not a city where you can just stand around and hope someone talks to you. While it can happen, do your best to support openings to meet people and also reward role players who are putting in effort to generate role play.
Join a Committee
Every role play sector in Bayside is organized by sub committees. These are people who are dedicated to seeing this type of role play succeed. Go to the “Join a Committee” channel on Discord to select any committees you’d like to join and jump right in. Introduce yourselves and get started with rp planning. This is a great way to meet people with similar interests, plan to meet up in the city and engaged in role play!
Get A Job
Career RP is a HUGE part of life in Bayside. There are various role play and Linden earning jobs around Bayside. When you are working you’ll want to announce your shift in Discord or the Role Play group (ideally both) to encourage people to stop by. This is a great way to pull people out and build connections. And as we mentioned in the first tip, when you see people announcing an opening or event, try your best to show up!
