Hello! Steve from Colorado Springs, CO here. I've been diving back into PBP gaming after a long break, and I stumbled across Unseen Servant from a post on r/pbp from some time ago. I was quite pleasantly surprised to see that there is quite a bit of "old school" activity going on here. I've been playing TTRPGs since I was first introduced to AD&D in 1981, and I've played a lot of different games since then. Some of the ones I remember fondly include Paranoia, Champions, Space Opera and James Bond 007 to name a few. Lately for me it's been mostly D&D, with a bit of Shadowrun and Traveller thrown in when I can. Recently, I've been interested in going back to basics - literally, the D&D Basic/Expert rules and a good 'ole dungeon crawl. Looks like this new fangled "Old School Essentials" thing might be a great way to rekindle the old school fires!
Cheers!
Steve
Greetings!

It's hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.
