Introduction!
« on: November 26, 2010, 07:21:52 AM »
New member, introducing myself, yada yada, pretty standard fan-forum fare. Five fathoms... something, thy father... lies? Whatever. Alliteration fun while it lasted.

I am, quite evidently Allie DeLarge. You can call me Allie, Alexa, Alexi, Alicia, DeLarge, DeLampshade, Albus Dumbledore, ANYTHING, but please, PLEASE not 'Al'. THAT is an old man's name, and I have sworn a blood oath to never be an old man.

Of course, my name is Alex. And, in appropriate fashion, that's all I'm gonna say about that.

IN CONCLUSION:

Hello, all.

Welcome, Alex! I hope you have fun here. However, this does belong in the RAF social thread. I guess it'll be moved.
Ask away if you need help, there's always someone to help you. :D

Hey Alex! Welcome to RAF.

Nice to meet ya, I'm Ryan, donut, couchtater, or hey you.  Head over to the social board.  There's a place for introductions and you can post up your own personal thread there.  I got the feeling this is going to be moved over there pretty soon anyway.

Hi Allie! Don't worry, the name "Al" is already taken by our resident old guy, Scott.

I'm Terenia, the one who oh-so-cruelly relocated your thread. Welcome to the social board!

I hope you enjoy RAF! Let me know if you need anything!

Hello Alexander, and Welcome to RAF! The normal thing for one of us to do is to ramble on the loss of Sanity that you will soon experience and all that; I would do it but I'm not one for cliches. RAF is awesome in every way imaginable and you will leave here, if you ever do, with your sanity quite intact.

Suddenly, a large dark-brown bear enters the room. 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' Board. We really get to know each other here. You've already introduced yourself, and you can also have your own Member Profile here, too!> The Bear lumbers back through the doorway, leading RedHunter into a hallway. There are many, many doors here.

<This door is the way to the 'RAF Projects' Board. Lots of RAFians work together on all kinds of cool stuff, like producing Animorphs audio-books and  "RAF: The Animated Series"! It's a really good show....> Bear moves over to another large door.

<Here is the 'Bored Board'. 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'. The 'Animorphs Role Playing' 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' in here. I like that room.> Across the hall, there is another set of three doors, side by side.

<That is the 'General Board'. We can talk about anything there... the weather, funny quotes, or anything you like! We also play all kinds of non-Animorphs RPG's in there, and we have way more neat stories and artwork in that last door.>

<Oh yeah! And there's the 'Media Area', where we talk about movies, TV, the news.... And we talk about 'Other Books' in that room!>

Bear sits on his haunches and looks at RedHunter. <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, and what species you are here.>

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!>

No, no, I was just about to thank whoever moved this to the appropriate setting!
Soo... thanks! Haha.

And, of course, thank you all for the welcome.
Always nice to get a positive reception as a forum newcomer, rather than the exclusionary elitism of far too many established communities.

*Running into the room* wHELLcome, Allie! *Take Allie by the arm and continue to run* I'm Vis... I'm Dameg, another RAFian. Come with me, please, I have something to show you and I don't have so much time. *Run into a hallway* It's here, after this door *Open a heavy door* We call them the RAFprojects. *Lead quickly Allie to the long and dark corridor, with many doors, some in the dark, some with light coming from the other side. Arrive near the first door* Here at your left...

- RAFipedia: 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);

Hurry please! - Next it's...

- the Audiobooks project: 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;

*Still running with Allie* Facing it...

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

You also have...

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

here and - no, you're not tired yet! - facing it is...

- the Translation project: 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;

No time to take your breath, follow! - Next door is for the special project:

- 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;

- the 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 to make a video game about Animorphs, with RPGmaker;

- the Command-line game project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3787.0.html for another kind of video game about Animorphs;

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3773.0.html where we count all the people killed by the Animorphs;

- the RAFkaraoke: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3150.0.html and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3635.msg245735.html#msg245735, where we make songs (and sing them?)...

- the One RAFian On Volume project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=5317.0 where everybody take a picture of him/herself with a volume of Animorphs... <= We need a lot of RAFians to participate! You only need a volume of Animorphs (rented if you don't have any) & a camera/webcam

and some other projects who come and go. Please check the list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/board,13.0.html

*Standing in front of Allie* I hope you enjoyed your visit. *Looking at her watch* Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: 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... and say where do you live here: 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 to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

*Beginning to run again* Now I have to go, I'm sorry to be so much in a hurry, but I'm really busy with the invasion my job this week and.... *Beginning to run down dark stairs. Allie can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Well... Have fun!
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Allie is now alone in the hallway*
