A little help please :D

So I figured, before I just jump right on in there and make a fool out of myself, I'd ask this quick question first.

Can I just jump into any thread that's out there? Do I have to make a new one, or do I have to be invited into existing ones?

I've never played on this type of game before so I'm a little unclear on the etiquette, and obviously I wouldn't like to go stepping on toes etc

Also, this PAARS thing; I understand that if you're in a thread that has PAARS written in the title, you become a carrier. But if you're in an area (EG the Castle Spa) that has a PAARS thread in it, do you become infected as well?

This might possibly be on the wrong board; please let me know if it is!

It's probably not a good idea to just jump into a random thread. There will probably be threads around where characters are just hanging out and waiting for someone to interact with; if you don't find any of those, make your own. It's usually considered rude to butt in on a deep conversation that's already going on. It's ok if the characters aren't doing anything serious, I suppose... but you'll get the hang of when it's ok to interrupt soon.

You don't have to be invited anywhere in this game, just keep your wits about you ; ).

Anyhow, welcome!

And yes, you do get infected if you go on a board which is PAARS infected. The idea is that they are closed spaces, so the disease has contaminated the entire area there.

If you want, there are two threads open for anyone to jump right in where my characters are involved right now. The other is Crystal Crown at the Wishing Well (hard to miss, as it's the only thread on the board), but the character in that thread is seeing things that aren't really there and is a bit mad, so if you're not comfortable with this form of playing yet, you might not want to jump right to her at first. The other thread is on the Blooming Blossoms, where Gibberish (mine) and Citrus (Whis's) are talking about flowers. Harmless, and you're welcome to join them with one of yours if you want.

...and welcome! I'd say you're quite in the right board.

You can always feel free to enter into anything at the Nursery, because that's what its there for. The CC Cafe is usually a good start, as it Ponyville's main board. You'll get the most replies there.
