There are parks near the Freedom Courts in Galaxy City and Atlas Park. They are handy, near other players, crime free (nothing like having Hellions pop into the middle of a discussion) and cover some area, allowing for sub-groups.

Well, here I have all the time in the world. In the game, because you can't tell the difference between typeing a clever message and contemplating ones navel, I feel rushed. Here I don't have so much of a problem. For one thing, I can keep my yap shut until I have something to contribute to an ongoing conversation. In the game there are still at least two different expectations, roleplaying and everybody else. I hate the idea of walking up to someone, playing my role and being dismissed as a total dork. (It may be true, but still...) Just like real life, it is so much easier if someone else starts the conversation. My roleplayer hangout suggestion is not a coincidence.

I like the image of a group of heros hanging out on a rooftop, especially a tall one.

On the other hand that would exclude lower level heros. One possibility might be two areas, one for beginers and one for higher level heros.

Hey, I made a funny High level, low level.... nevermind.

Yeah. I am ambivalent about that. On the one hand you would like to be sure that anyone hanging out in that area is actually a roleplayer and on the other hand, you would like to attract as much new blood as possible.

My characters are listed in the White Pages thread.

You would think that a virtual environment would allow a shy person to unclench. Nope. Too much like real life (except for the funny clothes and special effects). Kinda sucks for a game where a lot of the fun is based on social interaction. Especially if you are going to be particular with whom you interact (roleplayers).

Still too soon to give up hope.

Someone once mentioned the idea of pubs or bars for roleplayers to hang out. After loitering around Freedom Plaza and the tram station, frantically clicking on heros, looking for Descriptions (a hint that the person might be a roleplayer), it occured to me that it would be nice to have an un-official spot (on all servers) for roleplayers to gather and perhaps team up or even join a group. Or is there already such a place and I missed the clue.
