When I first joined in 2011 It was to discuss the new chapters which at the time was Zabuza edo tensei vs Kakashi I however had been coming here since atleast Kushinas first appernce in the kurama fight. I was a member for a solid month before reading rp rules and joined. It was much more fun then discussing but I still did and still do make regular threads with theories and questions on what happened during the story and you'll find me commenting on many threads outside the rp.
Theres really no difference us RP'ers are just like you guys except we have more fun without the need to troll (though that happens too, like lord of koas taking Vexs account xd)
however if you really want to prove your favorite solos make a bio of them and make it so.
