New gamers should probably find the answers to most of their questions here - though they may receive different answers from different people. GMs interested in starting new games or needing players for games already in existence will advertise here.

HOW TO START A GAME... in a nutshell. 1) Decide on rules, world, and other private details. 2) Advertize that you are looking to start a game in the V_GAMER echomail area. This is like the town hall of VNET. 3) Post Rob Richter at 45:554/101 letting him know you want to start a game. He will be able to answer any questions you have and can add you to the list of starting games or willing game masters. 4) If you have no specific echomail area, start playing in the V_NEWGAME echo when you get your players.
