Hello!
« on: May 11, 2011, 02:59:21 PM »
Hello everyone,
I'm a new member of this forum. Please forgive me for my English but I'm Italian and I can't speak it very well
I'm very happy to have discovered this forum, because in Italy I don't know a single reader of Animorphs books! In our county the series had a very little success and some books have never been published (Megamorphs, Chronicles and also the last two books of normal series!).
I hope I can discuss of this wonderful books with you and maybe even improve my English

Hey there! I'm Ash, welcome to the forum :) I'd go on, but I expect you'll be visited by quite a few 'introducers' and get all the information you need soon enough.

Enjoy your stay :)

<Don't worry, your English is better than most native English speakers that reside within the internets.  :)  Anyway, I'm DinosaurNothlit, RAF's resident Tyrannosaur/Ankylosaur mixed-morph nothlit.  Long story there.  Most people call me Dino or DN, although a few have recently started calling me Tobey.  I haven't the faintest idea why.>

Welcome from one newbie to anther! Yes, seal ( or one of her siblings, but most likely her) will come. Then either bear or damg will be here to show you around ( they have a race to see who can post a really long post first on new member threads). Anyway, welcome! :logo:  :controller: :

*runs into room and barely avoids running into a wall* Well hey-lo, Alan! Nice to meet you. I'm Mythgirl, RAF's resident sugar-happy dryad, but you can call me Myth. Please deposit any sugar and/or shiny objects you have in this bin here. *points to bin*

Well, as you may have noticed, RAF is a very welcoming place (and even more insane!). I hope you like it here, because once you come here, you can never leave.

It's been nice to meet you. I hope to see you around the forum some time!

*trips into wall while standing completely still* Okay, seriously?!

Um...okay...*straps on belt* Let's test it! *runs at nearest wall**stick appears**still manages to run into wall* Sorry, Rukh. It would work, but my mad skills are confusing it. I can type my name with my elbows, stab myself in the foot with bobby pins, and run into walls while wearing equipment to keep me from running into walls...mad skills, am I right?

Aw, it's okay. It's just that my super-klutzy skills allowed me to run into a wall when nobody else could. Your invention would work on anybody else, I'm sure.

wHELLcome, Alan!
I'm Vis... I'm Dameg, another RAFian. And as you can see, I'm French. 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 Alan 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...

- 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);

Next it's...

- the Audiobooks project: The Animorphs Audiobook Project, a full-cast audio version of Animorphs who need more "actors" and voices, headed by Kit Cloudkicker (Jess), MrGuy, Morfowt, and Wildweathel;

Facing it...

- the Graphic Novel project: Animorphs:The Graphic Novel, a Webcomic headed by Gafrash.

You also have...

- the Smiley project: smiley suggestions/projects, we make Animated gifs, smileys about Animorphs (Andalites, Hork-Bajirs...);

here and facing it is...

- the Translation project: Translations of Applegate's books, 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:

- RAF The Animated Series: RAF: The Animated Series: the adventures of the RAFians;

At the end it's for the little projects:

- the RAFparody Animation Project: RAFparody Animation Project;

- the Project Planet: Project Planet 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: Animorphs: the RPG to make a video game about Animorphs, with RPGmaker;

- the Command-line game project: Animorphs Command-line game for another kind of video game about Animorphs;

- the Animorph's Body Count: The Animorph's Body Count where we count all the people killed by the Animorphs;

- the RAFkaraoke: Animorphs the Musical (RAFkaraoke) and RAFize Songs, where we make songs (and sing them?)...

- the One RAFian On Volume project: One RAFian, one volume of Animorphs 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: List of RAFprojects

*Standing in front of Alan* I hope you enjoyed your visit. Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: What is your species? '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: Age... and say where do you live here:    
RAF World Map so Marie can add you on the RAFworld Map!
We also opened a RAF school to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

I made a thread for the RAFians who aren't English-speakers: Animorphs (+Everworld+Remnants) in the other countries/languages

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

Thank you for welcome, and a special thank to Dameg for the explanations. Wow, there are a lot of interesting project....the body count! I tried to do something similar years ago but then I gave up.

And the translation project is a very god idea....I need a transalation of books 53 and 54 never published in Italy....maybe I could make a contribution to translate this books in Italian? Well, I'm not very good at expressing myself in English, but I easily understand a written text.
Are the eBooks of #53 The Answer and #54 The Beginning available somewhere? Just to read them?

Well, we used to have the audio books On-site, but thanks to scholastic  *grumbles about greedy book publishers* we had to take them down.

Hey, Alan ^_^ Welcome to RAF. Firstly: Animorphs is amazing, and I look forward to discussing it with you. Secondly, your English is actually pretty excellent (a lot better than my Italian, I'll tell you that :P), and RAF has a lot of really good English speakers (compared to most of the interwebs), so it's a great place to make any improvements to your English that you think you need :)

Wow. That was rambly. Anyway, welcome to RAF ^_^ Spend some time hanging out and exploring the boards. There are a lot of amazing people here, and a lot of great discussions to join. You'll love it, I know it.
