Title: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Jadedkoi on March 30, 2009, 09:53:51 AM
Hey people, what' up? I go by either Jade (for jadedkoi, my writing-and-fandom username) or ammi (for ammisan, my main internet username).

I just figured since I started posting a bit that I should probably make one of these things.

Right now I'm looking for muses to help me get the kinks worked out of an epic-scale fanfiction I have the skeletal idea and plot for.  Also I'll just goof off around here and waste time when I should be working because there is nothing better than getting paid to browse the internets.


Feel free to add me.

Pleasure to meet you Jade!

I sincerely hope that you have an absolutely fantastic time on this forum.  We generally have an epically high tolerance for...well...everyt hing.

[spoiler]Except cannibalism.  But that's a conversation for various different threads![/spoiler]

[spoiler]Oh, and sanity.  That's not allowed either.[/spoiler]

<Hello!> says a dinosaur.  <I'm DinosaurNothlit, but you can call me Dino, Nothlit, or DN.  Enjoy your stay.>

The dinosaur pauses for a second, then her eyes widen and she asks, < . . . Wait, wait, paid to browse the internets?  How did you get that job, and how can I get in on it?!>

Haha, I work at a downtown hospital in Vegas. I'm in digital exams and patient records- which is a glorified way of saying I sit in front of a bunch of computer consoles and input patient exam data and check films/exams for errors before the doctors look at them. It can get very busy and it's a lot of responsibility (I've got all kinds of fun HIPAA rules like the fact that I can be fired by allowing a non-hospital employee into the records room, even if it's just a friend of mine whose father is a doctor here who is swinging by to pick me up) I wouldn't give it up for anything, though. Not having to deal with the general public is just such a huge plus.

But anyway, yeah. On slow days I end up spending like half or more of my 12-hour shift just screwing around online and wasting time. Nothin' else to do, you know?

HELLo Jade!! I'm a bit late... no, I'm really late! I was in vacations, you know, visiting other places, no stress, no invasion, no stupid Taxxons around me... well... I usually present the different projects we have on RAF. Of course, I won't ask you to help, it's just a... visit... now you just gonna visit the projects room of RAF's building:

- The Ebooks project: 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) and Everworld (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html)); we just miss Everworld #10 now, but the other ebooks need to be cleaned a little (mistakes, we don't know where the chapters begin and finish, etc.) so if you wanna be a beta-reader/correcter...

- RAFipedia: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0 (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0), 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);

- 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 MrGuy, Morfowt and Wildweathel;

- 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;

- the Graphic Novel project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html) and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html), a Webcomic headed by Gafrash.

- the 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 Smiley project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html), we make Animated gifs, smileys about Animorphs (Andalites, Hork-Bajirs...).

Of course you can participate if you want, or just take a look ^^

Many RAFians aren't Humans... The majority isn't Human. You can add your species here: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html) if you want.
And thanks for the phone number... We'll find your address easily, like that... If you see some Hork-Bajirs at your door soon, please don't worry and just follow them, they're friends of us... and soon friends of you ^^

Faerie, what's the problem with cannibalism? How can you say it's bad if you didn't even try yet!? A... guy I know... his name's Sstsscriesss, told me it's quite good and... So I don't understand: why cannibalism and only that!!?

Hello Jade!

Dameg,
remember Visser 3's bro was a cannibal, are you saying you're okay with Yeerks eating other Yeerks? Being one yourself, I'd think you'd be against it.

But i digress, Is it cool for a noob to welcome a noob? Well too bad 'cause I'm not a noob anymore! Muahahaha!


ha.

It's true about the sanity thing idn't it? (oh yeah, that was no typo, I said, "idn't") :headbang:

Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Dameg on April 06, 2009, 02:15:55 AM
I ask help for every projects, not only mines... And projects always need help ^^

And about cannibalism for Yeerks, of course I'm against that!! It's totally different!! We aren't... eatable!! And... hey!! don't say to the newbies I'm... what I am!! They could come by themselves... you know... we like the volun... when people come to us... for friendship and... that kind of stuff...

Post by: Darth Revan on April 06, 2009, 03:17:13 AM
Hey, if exposure prevents one more innocent, I'll do what i can. Muahahaha!

You too are Eatable, remember Esplin 9466? Hmm? A man by the name Joe Bob Fenestre? He cannibalized your kind to absorb the Kandrona in their systems!
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Dameg on April 06, 2009, 03:27:51 AM
It isn't funny  :cry: Maybe we lost a... friend because of Parker! I don't even know who told him!! And Jade will run away or at least won't go to the Sharing, now, even if it's a very good place!
Oops! I think I made a mistake again... I said something I shouldn't... but what?! Arg! It's always like that after vacations, I'm lost and do mistakes! Hopefully, Visser Three like me, so I suppose I won't have any problem...
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Darth Revan on April 06, 2009, 03:44:35 AM
I don't reveal my sources  :-X

Let's just say I've been in contact with a "friendly" Yeerk starting with the 13th letter of our alphabet.

"The Sharing" huh? Our next target. >:D
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Dameg on April 06, 2009, 05:01:37 AM
What??!!! Target?!! For what?! Hey!! Don't do anything against my friends!!!

Don't worry, it'll be quick and painless, you won't even notice it's been eliminated... 'til it's too late!

Our precision military tactics are no match for your defenses! Our lightning reflexes will make your Dracon beams seem like a water gun stream!

:edit:

Well, I guess i could adopt a "Live and let live" attitude here seeing as you are part of this forum.

Truce?

Post by: Dameg on April 07, 2009, 12:00:47 AM
May you tell us when and where you'll attack? My guys are already preparing themselves. You won't win so easily, dear!
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Darth Revan on April 07, 2009, 02:36:34 AM
Here i offer amnisty and a cease-fire, and you put your troops on high alert? *scoff* We SPARTANs are honorable warriors, and do not take well to threats and insulting, blasphemous, slander stating that we are otherwise.

I preposed a truce. Do we have an accord?
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: estrid on April 07, 2009, 03:04:04 AM
nah, personally id rather see a fight. raf is up for some good rafbattles right about now ;D

Post by: Darth Revan on April 07, 2009, 03:16:52 AM
Hey Missy kitty,

this is a negotiation between me and the Yeerk there.

I will not have a universal incident because of an interloper.
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Dameg on April 07, 2009, 03:42:18 AM
If you accept to not attack any Yeerk nor any Sharing member... I suppose we can make a truce. But my guys will always be ready, in the case your friends and you attack them. We also want peace... sometimes...

Post by: Jadedkoi on April 07, 2009, 09:57:36 AM
*snicker* wow, off-topic by the second page. I think I'll fit in here just fine.

The ebooks sound awesome, Dameg. Betaing them for typos is something I'd do easily seeing as they're all sitting in a folder on my harddrive (and on my ipod too - apps rock so much)

I have no voiceacting experience but getting in on the audiobook would be cool too.

I love how many side projects the forum has. good stuff.
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Darth Revan on April 07, 2009, 01:31:44 PM
I do apologize that this welcoming format became a hostile environment.

Dameg, I swear, that no Yeerk will be harmed by my SPARTANs, unless proper provocation of course. Just be sure your trigger finger stays still as well.
Title: Re: Hey look, it's an "I'm new!" thread.
Post by: Dameg on April 08, 2009, 02:01:48 AM
Don't worry, we have no use of your... bodies. If your robots stay far, we'll do the same. And maybe we'll think about a pact and be on the same side, later. But of course, for that, it isn't my choice... my rant isn't enough high.

Jade, sorry. And if you wanna help with the editing, I'd be glad to accept you in the team ^^ There are still many Animorphs ebooks who need a strong editing!
About the audiobooks, ask to Morfowt.

Robots?!? we are not robots, we are genetically and medically enhanced humans! There are no metallic upgrades to our skeletal, or any internal structure. We are completely organic. The only mechanical bit about us is our Mjolnir Mark VII armor and our AI implants.

For one who wants peace, you sure keep a sharp tongue.

 :( ok ok, no robots... You're (quite) Humans. This discussion give me a headache :facepalm: , let's make a truce and keep the weapons in our pockets. Is it ok with you?
