Some basics? Well firstly this as you know is the Welcome Lounge, where new members take a stand and introduce themselves. Feel free to hang around here to welcome in future new members!
Areas I recommend: Hacks Studio, Fanfiction, Role Playing
Hacks Studio is our most famous and pretty much our biggest section. This is where famous rom hacks can be found, and also the little projects. Final Versions, Betas, patches, you name it. Feel like playing them? Download and patch, it's that simple! Feel free to browse there and see what hacks you like.
Fanfiction is where writers publish their stories/poem. There are pokemon stories to non fictional stories. There are lots of good stories there so read them!
Role Playing section is where we gather around to participate in our own writing video game world with typing! There are little Role Plays open for sign ups, but visit the Role Playing Lounge. Just click Role Playing and the click the sub forum. You can only post in the main thread if you're in a role play, so sign up in the role play lounge!
I think that's enough from me. I've talked too much. Anyway, welcome to PC and may life treat you well! Enjoy your stay! If you're bored, don't hesitate to VM/PM!
