I don't do well with stringing lots of words together, but I figured even if you guys don't hear from me much I should at least introduce myself.  I've been lurking around here for a few days and probably would have continued for a few more, but Aluminator has been bugging me to post, so credit/blame goes to him.  I look forward to reading more from everyone ^_^

wHELLcome, Amber!
I'm Vis... I'm Dameg, another RAFian. Come with me, please, I have something to show you. It's here, after this door *Open a heavy door* We call them the RAFprojects. *Lead Amber to a long and dark hallway, with many doors, some in the dark, some with light coming from the other side. Arrive near the first door* Here at your left...

- The Ebooks project: [Help wanted!] Animorphs (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0)), Remnants (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,157.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,157.0.html) <= finished), Everworld (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html) <= almost finished, it's our current priority, we need help to correct the volume #3 and check all the volumes to be sure there is no missing page); the Everworld/Animorphs ebooks need to be cleaned a little (mistakes, missing pages, we don't know where the chapters begin and finish, etc.) so if you wanna be a correcter... call me, I head that projects.

Facing it is...

- RAFipedia: http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/ (http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/), an encyclopedia headed up by Estelore, our star (a true star, who make light and burn in space... but she has a body to come on Earth);

Next it's...

- the Audiobooks project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0), a full-cast audio version of Animorphs who need more "actors" and voices, headed by Kit Cloudkicker (Jess), MrGuy, Morfowt, and Wildweathel;

and here...

here and facing it is...

- the Translation project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html), a recently started project/mutual support group for translations into other languages; currently only in French (Tocade, Anidragon and myself), Chinese (Morfowt), Indonesian (Nat), Swedish (Mira and Zana), and Esperanto (Wildweathel); we translate only the volumes never edited in our countries/languages, to make the ebooks;

Next door is for the special project:

- http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html): the adventures of the RAFians;

At the end it's for the little projects:

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3810.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3810.0.html);

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3911.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3911.0.html) to make the planets we hear about in Animorphs;

- the paper-RPG project: a role-playing game (on table, with paper, pen and dices...) about the World of Animorphs; I head this project, and it'll be write in French at the beginning, but we need help to find, class and write everything we know about the species, the planets, the powers we see in Animorphs, fix them, see what we keep and what we can't keep (because of the KASU, not clear, exception for the main characters/books, etc.), complete the knowledges about species/planets we know and even create new species/planets...; this project will be on my own website, so if you wanna join, ask me the link ^^;

- the RPG project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,4069.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,4069.0.html) to make a video game about Animorphs, with RPGmaker;

*Standing in front of Amber* I hope you enjoyed your visit. Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html) 'coz everybody isn't Human here. And we like to know who is what... For example, as you'll probably see, I'm a Controller. ... and if you want, you can add your age too: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,318.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,318.0.html)... and say where do you live here: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=5049.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=5049.0) so Marie can add you on the RAFworld Map!
We also opened a http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0) to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

Now I have to go, I don't invite you for the meal, sorry. *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Amber can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Have fun!
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Amber is now alone in the hallway*

Well, hey there, Amber!  I'm Horsefan1023, but you can just call me Horsefan, Horse, Horise, Horseal, Seal, Sealie, or (if you want to be like Blue) Sealie-kun.  Or Sealie-sama.  That's a more respectful title   :P

Just kidding.  We have many diverse species here on RAF, and we're all a little...odd, so, Dameg showed you the link to the "What is your species" thread.  But I'll have to confiscate and incinerate your sanity.  Protocol, you see.   :P

Once again, welcome!   :)

Katrina!!!!!!!!!! *glomp* I totally missed this last night. Now I feel bad.

Anyway; yay! You posted!

And Tara- that makes her officially another RAFian you can add to your count of how many RAFians you've met. She's my friend that was with us in Boulder.

Oh... sorry, Katrina. Should I be calling you Amber? I can do that... I think...
Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: AmberKatira on August 20, 2010, 12:06:05 PM
I'm okay with just about any version of my name, so long as I can tell you're talking about me  :P

And thanks for the welcome everyone!  Except.... *looks around the deserted hallway outside all the RAF projects* does anyone ever manage to come out of those rooms if they get tempted in?  Maybe I should wait and look for a while longer.  *Settles down in an especially dark corner and pulls out a bag of something really crunchy that echoes all the way down the hallway*

Post by: Stephquiem on August 20, 2010, 01:09:31 PM
Well, now there is a way out of the hallway, at least. *shows you into a room with doors that kind of looks like the one in Alice in Wonderland* To get out of RAF, unfortunately, usually involves excruciating pain. D: I don't suggest it at all.
Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: Horsefan1023 (Seal) on August 20, 2010, 01:10:14 PM

Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: Stephquiem on August 20, 2010, 01:11:29 PM
Yeah. That doesn't help the pain bit either! Not that we mean to. It's just... that many people in a dogpile...
Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: AmberKatira on August 20, 2010, 06:06:20 PM
I was thinking more of the individual projects as the doors, rather than the forum as a whole.  And if I am killed via dog pile, well *shrug*  at least I will feel loved as I am crushed to death  ;)
Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: Aluminator (Kit) on August 20, 2010, 09:17:47 PM
Haha. You don't need to be crushed to death to feel loved here, though, promise ;)
Title: Re: <Hello> *waves* ^_^
Post by: Dameg on August 21, 2010, 10:07:06 AM
Just to explain how is the Projects hallway:
The hallway is pretty long, with 4 branches (it forms a kind of X). One of them begins with an elevator and the one who is on the opposite finishes with a door who lead to stairs. Both of them (elevator and stairs) lead to the other boards/floors. At the end of the left branch, there are the special stairs who lead to the Yeerk Pool. I put it here 'coz it's easier for me, as I lead one of the Project and spend time in this area (this branch is the Ebooks branch). But actually, there are hidden doors who lead to the same stairs in the other floors. There are already many doors but more doors appear magically sometimes. The hallway even can change through the time, and the old members can see that it is now longer than when it first appeared. The doors themselves have various colors and forms. Some are big, some are thin...
Oh, and if you ask what is this golden door at the end of the right (and last) branch, it's a special door. It leads to Richard's office, and through it (and some more hallways and stairs) to the entrance door of RAF and the other floors.
RAF can be labyrinthic, sometimes ^^

Hi there Amber! I'm Terenia, or Teach, or T, or Jessi. Whichever you prefer. It's great to see you up and posting! Put those lurkish tendencies to the side, and don't trust the seal! She will steal any sanity that you have left. I heard that she sucks it out of your brain with a swirly straw. o.O
