I don't think I looked very long. The situation intrigued me. Of course, that was back when it was Pern Shadows. I don't think I lurked more than a day if at all before I submitted a character. I was kicked out, then joined again later...probably about two years later. I think I stayed a couple of years, but then I started having children AND I was in school. The combination didn't leave me time so I left. I left sometime in 2006, after my son was born and was gone approximately a year and a half. I came back in February of 2008, so I've been back for about a year and a half.
Longest at one club? Six and a half years until the club officially closed due to the leadership losing interest. That was in Spring of 2006, while I was pregnant with Matthew. I joined one month after the club opened, October of 1999.
I looked at Triad for about a week. I lurked for about three months before actually submitting a persona (though I lurked under a different member name since I wasn't sure if I wanted to join or not). I have never been away and I have never been any other club. I have been an active member here since December 2004. :thumbright:
What name did you go under, Eimi? I was around during that time, I'm pretty sure. Did we just never copost together?

Months. I was looking at every full post Pern club out there and I joined most of them to lurk, too.
QuoteHow long did you lurk before submitting a character?
I think I would have submitted a sheet when I joined.
QuoteHow long were you away if you've been here more than once?
Just been here the once.
QuoteHow long is the longest you've been at one (Pern) club?
Five years and ten months at my previous club.
QuoteHow long have you been here (this time)?
Since October 2006 so nearly three years now.

I was under a different name when I was a lurker. I can't remember what it was now. I joined as Eimi though. And you were under a different name at the time. I think we MIGHT have done a group post together, but I know I remember seeing you post with other people. You had a ranker or two at the time I think. I remember especially a weyrlingmaster assistant that you wrote. But you were pregnant around that time, and your time was very limited as I remember.
Pregnant and taking classes. That's why I left and gave my characters to people or retired them. :}
Actually U'kaiah was my second persona, so he would have appeared before you left the club. He may have even started his flirting with Jaela around that time...
How long did you look at Triad before joining?
About 30 minutes ^^ I wanted to join a Pern RPG that had a canon as close to AM's as possible (no women brownriders/blueriders, brownrider weyrleaders, silver dragons, etc) and it was love at first sight :love5:
How long did you lurk before submitting a character?
I submitted one the following day. Shayla. She was a sweet little Candidate who eventually Impressed a green.
How long have you been here (this time)?
I've been here since November 2004....so it'll be 5 years in a couple months. That's longest I've been involved in any RPG :love5:
