You might think of this place and it's people as nice, quiet, and peaceful right?
Wrong. This is Mobius we're talking about here.
The Sonic universe, home of mobians, overlanders, and of course Dr.Eggman.
But where we have a technological genius trying to take over the world, we'll have a spiny blue hero.
Of course... There is a difference between the games and our RP.
The games are nothing but high-speed action, and fun to boot, but not much on character interaction.
This roleplay focuses more on that than the games themselves.
You get to see how characters act when with family, friends, and loved ones...
But if you think that there's no action, you're SORELY mistaken.
But, in order for any roleplay to be a success, a delicate balance has to be maintained.
If we were all action, gung-ho blow stuff up, then it would get old. Fast.
However, if we did nothing but talk, then odds are, more heads would be on keyboards than hands.
So, we'll tease you with cliffhangers, taunt you with near-death experiences, and leave you wondering what will happen next.
So... Where do you fit in? Are you going to be the hero of tomorrow? Or the villain of today.
Or perhaps you're a gun for hire, the vigilante that works for the highest bidder.
Whatever the case may be... Good or Evil... Hero or Villain...
It's your life. Live it up.

The purpose of MobiusRP is slowly, but steadily evolving.
It went from a single IRC roleplay to an IRC/Forum RP, to include a small listing of Sonic RPs. And then continued on.
Currently it's becoming a PHP-based interactive IRC RP, with a lesser focus on forums.
While the goal of collecting links to Sonic RPs was a noble one, there is not enough time for the current webmaster to continue that.
As it stands now, we are progressing to a more and more PHP-enabled RP style.

MobiusRP is a Semi-Freeform roleplay that takes place in the Sonic Universe.
It was created for all of the fans Sonic series who desired a friendly place to be their characters.
The RP was originally founded by Stuntman21 AKA Kyle, back some time in November of 2002.
Krymson has always been the webmaster, and after a while, he came to be the "Leader" of the RP.
However, Krymson became inactive and both the website and RP nearly died.
After a long period of inactivity, Metal_Man88 was promoted to admin and given the keys. He quickly came to be the new leader, starting the third generation of Mobius RP.
Unfortunately, Toby never shared any code with Metal Man, and his website died with siterise.net. Metal_Man88 therefore is now the webmaster, whether or not he likes it.
We strive to maintain a friendly environment that everyone can enjoy.
We are open to all people who have an interest in joining.
We wish to provide a balanced experience for all who stay.
We hope you enjoy your stay.

The site itself was originally coded entirely in notepad.
It remained this way, up to revamp 3.
When Toby did the fourth revamp, he used Macromedia Dreamweaver.
He used Dreamweaver for this revamp, as well. (5)
He used the code and display view, a majority of the time.
For the PHP portions of the site (The important parts) he used code-only view.
It was like having a souped up version of notepad. Syntax checking was a lifesaver.
For the graphics, Toby used paint and photoshop.
Flash content was made with FlashMX 2K4. (None of it survived to the current site.)
The site was tested in Internet Explorer and Mozilla. (Latest releases) Right now it's anyone's guess how compatible the site remains, sorry. :p
Languages used in the site: HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP
And last but not least, the database we use is MySQL.
This information is from the old site. Currently, however, Metal_Man88's version of it is.. different. I, Metal_Man88, used a combination of MadEdit (think notepad with the ability to make tabs) and old code from Toby's site to make this one. The PHP is brand new and programmed entirely by me. Ironically, no more Dreamweaver or Flash is involved, the site has returned to notepad, theoretically speaking.
Due to the difficulty of picking up somebody else's version system, we're calling this version 5.2 for now until Metal_Man88 gets some new schemes to make the site look 'new'. That will probably be considered 6.0 proper. (Toby is gone, and his MR Beta has vanished as well, hence preventing the site from simply jumping to '7.0'.)

MyMobius is the centerpiece of this website.
It's comprised of:
User Authentication
Character Management (Creation/Editing/Deletion)
Factions (To organize characters into)
The live channel topic
The Emerald Radar
MyMobius is coded in PHP, using MySQL as the database for storing all the info.
MyMobius is really phpMyMobius, but just MyMobius for short.
You can register free of charge by filling out a little form.
After you're registered, you're given access to all the user-level goodies of MyMobius!
The character management system of MyMobius is where character bios are made.
You simply fill out the fields, hit submit, and voila, your bio is stored in our database.
But before you're allowed to roleplay, it must be approved by the GMs.
GMs have exclusive access to the "GM Panel". No users allowed. Duh.
From here, a GM can view your bios, and vote on what should be done with your character. They have many options, and can even have a second, third, fourth, etc. vote if they change their minds later.
No one except the webmaster has access to the Admin panel. Admins are all-powerful.
An admin can manipulate any and all user and character information.
The live channel topic is made possible by Metal_Man88 and the MyMobius system.
Metal_Man88 functions like an mIRC bot, but he's actually the admin. He coded his own functions. Crazy, eh?
The original robot, MRP_BOT, was coded by Krymson and Elyssa. Elyssa did most of the important stuff on that bot. That bot and its code, however, is long gone.
The Emerald radar is a simple means of tracking in-game items called 'Chaos Emeralds', and although it may look like nothing, the gap between when it was first promised and when it was finished was 3 years!
