Greetings folks.
I'm an experienced gamer (both on and offline) and I found this site through Steve Jackson Games Forums. I was wondering how to get involved both playing and running games here. If things go well I'll be inviting my buddies to start swinging through here as well, so think of me as an advance scout. Okay?
How does one get started here?

Welcome Gozer!
Wayloss is right one of the best ways to join a game is to check out the forums and then send a Private Message to the GM or post on the OOC section for that game. I know off hand that Tet'Nak is looking for a few players to liven up both a Star War Alternate Universe GURPs game, and also a Orginal Fantasy world of his in GURPS (Called Crossroads of Fantasy).
You can generally find someone in the chat section as well to talk about the games. Questions concering starting a new game should be directed to the site Admins, either Brennor or Myself.
Welcome aboard, and look forward to playing with you.

Hey!
Welcome aboard, Gozer!
Glad to hear our name is getting around. I had no idea we'd made it to SJGames forums. Sweet!
For playing in games, the best way is to ask the GM of the game. They are listed right below the description of the game on the main forum listing.
In order to run a game here, all you have to do is ask. We are pretty freeform right now. V is right -- either him or I can set you up (Now I've gotta make an announcement about that, V! )
The best way to learn about this place is to ask here on the forums. Things are quite a bit different here than in standard tabletop gaming, though you've said that you are familiar with online gaming, so you are probably already familiar with that.

Re: How does one get started here?
Well, it seems as if you've figured it out pretty well, Gozer, and are jumping in headfirst. 3 games. Very nice.
Welcome aboard (as before). Glad to have another player here.

I ended up moving this topic from the RPG forum, because it doesn't really belong there. No big deal though.
So, is Gozer something from Ghostbusters? The name seems to ring a bell.

topic split
Sorry about the move of your topic, Gozer.
I've now split it, so that the relevant parts are back in the General RPG Forum, where they belong. I didn't realize that it was going to turn that way.
This topic might end up moving again, when I create the Introductions forum. I dunno yet though. If it does move, well, this is your fair warning. And, if it doesn't move, I don't know what I was talking about.
