Now that I am aware of the enforced nature of the PG-13 rating here I am having to seriously re-think my Project. These days I mostly am interested in Modern settings usually with a Science Fiction nature. New Chicago was based on a re-telling of Marvel and DC comic book history but it was still gritty. So I have to think of something new if I wish to run a Game here and stay within the Rules limitations.
I can easily think of a dozen places where New Chicago would have broken the Rules here so I am considering other possible ideas.

I have put some comments on my MW Wiki talk page. Listing some of the things I might do. Not sure how I communicate with the others working on it yet.
-
It is an impressive place. I will have to come up with something worthy of all this potential.
-
Most places have people bounce back and forth. I say hello to you on yours and you respond on mine. But I find that insanely hard to keep up with so I treat mine as my own personal Forum. I rather like that but then I have a big mouth. *grins*

Well, the Profiles as they are now is kind of a new thing. I know that I'm not really sure what to do with it all now.. especially the Visitor Messages. But, good to see you around! Maybe I'll catch you in a game.
-
Yeah but PMs are a whole different thing. I write tons of those too. These places are public. Your own personal Forum. It is such a waste of an opportunity.
-
Yeah, These visitor messages aren't used very often. Most people seem to prefer to use the PM system.

Ok I have proved I am not a Spammer so I can post links. Let me make this very, very clear. I am NOT Recruiting for New Chicago. But I am proud of it. In 4 months we have cranked out over 1,200 Game Turns. Some of them are short but many are a whole page in length. The total word count would be amazing to see.
This is a PbPC world. What that means is that threads represent physical Locations. People move about as they take action in the World. There is no limit to how many Locations might be active at any one time.
"New Chicago" My first PbPC game!
To better understand this place I would suggest reading "Life as we know it" which is available in Creative Corner here.
"Life as we know it" by Luther Stone
In case you are wondering Mr. Stone is an NPC.

Thanks for the welcome. I am getting the impression that Profiles are not used much around here. Might have to do something about that.

Posted "Life as we know it." which is the original story that started New Chicago. It is also a decient piece of FanFic if you prefer to see it that way. I rarely write FanFic but in this case it just worked so well I had to go with it.

I may start to work up my "New Chicago" Rules and setting for the Wiki here. They need a revision anyway and if nothing else getting those here would be a nice first contribution.
