If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at stararmy@gmail.com or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
Welcome to the site! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. I recommend finding a plot, to start things off, and then making a character for that plot. Enjoy your time here :]
