Call me Arkon.
I'm new to this forum, but definitely not new to animorphs.
I've read them at least five times, I sorta lost count...
I like to read, draw, play guitar, kick butt on video games, and listen to music.
So, once again... Hi

<Hi Arkon! Welcome to RAF! I'm the resident mixed-morph Ankylosaur/Tyrannosaur nothlit. It's a long story. Anyway, welcome, and I'm sure you'll like it here!>

hey, welcome to RAF :)

*Runs into room, runs into wall.* Wow, I can see how that belt would be useful. :welcome: Hi! I'm Mewmorpher, but everyone calls me Mew. As you may have noticed, no one eats you here. We're all very friendly. Just wait for the talking seal to come and collect your sanity. By the way, I'm not the one who usual runs into a wall, but the one who does had to check out. It's something she use to say: RAF is like Hotel California; you can check out anytime, but you can never leave. :welcome: :welcome:

Now I have to go, I don't invite you for the meal, sorry. *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Arkon can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Have fun!
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Arkon is now alone in the hallway*
-
Welcome to RAF! I'm Gaz, nice to meet you.
-
*hearts beating quickly* Ketran are clostrophobic, you know!!!
I flap my wings and hover quickly back out into the light, and the air.
Whew, I'm gonna have to get over that...
-
Welcome to, RAF! I'm Jess. We're glad to have you. :)

Suddenly, a large dark-brown bear enters the room. He looks all around, and even above, then seems to relax just a bit. He appears gentle, and is curious about the newcomer. <Hello! I am Bear. Are you new here? Let me show you around!>
<This is the 'RAF Social' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=29.0) Board. We really get to know each other here. You've already introduced yourself, and you can also have your own Member Profile (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=30.0) here, too!> The Bear lumbers back through the doorway, leading Akron into a hallway. There are many, many doors here.
<This door is the way to the 'RAF Projects' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=13.0) Board. Lots of RAFians work together on all kinds of cool stuff, like producing Animorphs audio-books (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0) and "RAF: The Animated Series" (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=3738.0)! It's a really good show....> Bear moves over to another large door.
<Here is the 'Bored Board' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=1.0). We play games and love to waste our time here! It's a lot of crazy fun. You should join us here!> Bear continues down the hall, speaking as he goes.
<These three doors are for the Animorphs Section. We discuss the books, TV show, and anything about the series in the 'Animorphs Forum' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=2.0). The 'Animorphs Role Playing' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=6.0) Board is exciting! RAF always has active RPG's, and lots of cool players. I hope you like to Role-play as much as I do....> Bear's short tail wagged. <And we have some talented writers who share their 'Animorphs Fan Fiction & Art' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0) in here. I like that room.> Across the hall, there is another set of three doors, side by side.
<That is the 'General Board' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=11.0). We can talk about anything there... the weather, funny quotes, or anything you like! We also play all kinds of non-Animorphs RPG's (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=23.0)in there, and we have way more neat stories and artwork (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=27.0) in that last door.>
<Oh yeah! And there's the 'Media Area' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=4.0), where we talk about movies, TV, the news.... And we talk about 'Other Books' (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=21.0) in that room!>
Bear sits on his haunches and looks at Akron. <It's a big place, but it's so much fun here! We're glad that you came. Tell us a few things about yourself here (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=6489.0), and what species you are here (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html).>
Bear begins to walk farther down the hallway, which opens into a thick green forest. He looks over his shoulder and says, <You'll see me around. Welcome to RAF!>
...a few seconds later, Bear sticks his head around the corner and asks, <Oh, and by the way... You didn't run into this freaky French lady did you? Whatever you do... don't go down the stairs.>
...Curse you, Dameg... :akanbe:
Howdy! I'm Bear, if you hadn't already guessed. It's always nice to see new folks around here. And I definitely agree.. outdoors is best. People who live in dark little holes can't be trusted. *coughDamegcough* Another thing you might want to know is that Dameg and I have this little competition of sorts to see who can be the first to greet the newcomers with an obnoxiously long introductory post. And... unfortunately... I lost this time. Dang it. But anyways, glad to see ya here, and hopefully I'll see you around the boards. Welcome Aboard!
-
WHAT?!!!!! WHERE DID YOU SEE I LIVE IN A DARK LITTLE HOLE, YOU... ANIMAL!!!! :mad:
...
*try to calm down*
I like the dark and small places, but that doesn't mean they're holes or that I shouldn't be trusted. I'm one ofthe kindest Yeerk ever, a good RAFian and... I don't even know why I have to justify myself!!
-
VISSER25 AND WARREN BEARCLAW!!!!! CALM DOWN!
-
I am calm...
Why are you calling me Visser 25 now?! :o I thought the social positions and ranks and species weren't important on RAF...
And that's not my fault if he... invents things about me in front of the newbies...
-
That was a full name, which is best for calming everyone down.
-
My full name would be more : my rank + my Yeerk name (and number) + my host name :P
-
Anyway...
thanks to all who welcomed me!
-
AND HERE IS THE FAMOUS TALKING SEAL! *random sparkles appear*
...sorry. ^_^; Anyways, hi! I'm Horsefan1023, but call me Horse, Horsie, or Seal. I'm bannaphone currently, but we're on a little name-change trend here. You can change your name when you reach Sr. Member status, which is...how many posts...500?
Anyway, I've gotta collect your sanity now. Forum policy. You'll loose it eventually, and it's sticky. I'll walk in it (I always do) and it'll take forever to get out of my fur. So....if you don't give it to me, I'll lock you in a pitch black room for two days and three hours, then come in and rip it out of your skull. Then leave you in the room for another hour or so! :angel:
Kidding, kidding. Anywho's, welcome to RAF! I'm sure you'll have a ton of fun here.

Kidding, kidding. Anywho's, welcome to RAF! I'm sure you'll have a ton of fun here.
*leans over and whispers* But seriously kid, hand over the sanity. The Darkness is freakin' scary.... *twitches*
WHAT?!!!!! WHERE DID YOU SEE I LIVE IN A DARK LITTLE HOLE, YOU... ANIMAL!!!! :mad:
...
Now, I just have to ask... was that supposed to be an insult? Duh! I'M A BEAR!!!!
VISSER25 AND WARREN BEARCLAW!!!!! CALM DOWN!
erm... my name is just "Bear". We don't share our full names. It scares the bajeebers out of some people. *shrugs* Go figure. [spoiler] From TVtropes (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ptitleeyyr8ln8spjv): As mentioned above, the English from the time Beowulf was written to avoid even naming the bear. In several languages (including French, English, German, Finnish and Russian), there was a taboo about even saying "bear" for fear that it would summon one. Thus, there's usually at least one euphemism that survives to this day for them to keep that from happening (in English, the most common one is "bruin", literally "brown one"). [/spoiler]

Welcome to RAF! I'm Steph. :)

I know ;)
But all the animals aren't bears, right? :P

Hi Arkon, welcome to RAF! I'm Marie, nice to meet you!
-
*Runs into room, runs into wall.*
Myth says you're allowed to run into door frames, not walls. :P
-
Really! She said I could! I was just trying it out when she wasn't able to look!
-
She said you could? Where? The look on her face today said otherwise. :P
-
Nvm
-
I actually laughed out loud at some of those posts XD
Nice to meet you all! I already like it here.
Seriously, this is the nicest forum I've ever seen ^^
-
It's the lack of sanity. After a few days, sanity starts to mildew, and gets these little tiny flies in it, and... yeah, it's gross. Which is why we don't have any here. Sanity Sanitation is our highest priority. :P
-
Okay, I know I am very, very late in introducing myself, but:
Hi! I'm Aluminator! Welcome to RAF ^_^
-
That's okay, hi Lumy :D
