My name is Ross, I'm 38 and from Ireland and I've some experience with PbP games over on RolePlay onLine and the Giant in the Playground forums (which is where I heard about here.)
I played D&D 3/3.5 back in college but I'm much more fond of 1st and 2nd edition AD&D (I have whole bookshelves full of sourcebooks I started buying long before I rolled a dice in anger and the thought of playing Al-Qadim or Arcane Age Netheril or one of the other incredibly evocative settings from this era) and 5e (I really like the feel of the game and its simplicity and it is maybe the system I have the best handle on.) I also have a soft spot for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, King Arthur Pendragon, Talislanta and the West End Games Star Wars, though my experience with some of those is more limited. I've also had a lot of fun with some the retroclones like Flying Swordsman and Mazes and Minotaurs.
I'm more of a player than someone who could really set up his own game sadly. I have briefly tried GMing but while I love the idea of it I'm not sure I quite have the attention span or patience for it.
