I am new to the "Shadowrun Online" thing and was happy to see a site as open as this one. I used to play 2nd edition and have a ton of books from when Fasa (I think) was printing them. As you may have guessed that's about 6-8 years ago, can't remember how long its been. I ran the shadows for a few years but it became increasingly difficult to keep a group together. I did a little GMing and had a few characters - it was a blast. I went off to college, had few kids - girl~2 & boy<1 and here I am. I'm 24 and am looking for another hobby, figured why not check the web... I look forward to doing a little running with 4th edition rules, though I'm not as familiar as I was and as best I can tell character creation has totally changed.. I'm sure there is plenty to catch up on. I am working on getting the 4th edition rule book. I hope you guys don't mind too many annoying questions!
Later Chummers.

plenty of stuff to nibble away at I used to play SR2 had to ebay SR3 to catch up - theres a lot similar, some areas smoothed out , adjusted , but in essence the same genre.
Take lots of pics of them -they grow up fast!

Welcome to the Boards. 4th Ed Character Creation is quite different than 3rd. I recall making my first character and thinking that 3rd was bad enough!
However, in some ways it's a touch easier. Points rather than priorities. On the other hand, the points system tends to discourage Meta Human races as you'd have to spend at least 25 points of your 200 starting.
Then again, I played White Wolf's system for years, which has a "Build Point" aspect of Character Creation.
So, welcome aboard, enjoy your stay.

Welcome Back to the Shadows Chummer. Like you I used to play back in the day during the 2nd edition until I found this site back in Dec. I ended up going with the 3rd edit to work my way back into SR and have throughly enjoyed every moment of it. As for the little ones, Wolflet is right, take plenty of pictures. I still can't believe my son will be turning 2 in July. It seems like yesterday we were bringing him home. Oh and I just noticed you are in my old stomping grounds, Tallahassee. Just heard a few weeks back Mike's Beer Barn closed down.
