These are always awkward, aren't they?; it's hard to come up with a topic title that isn't some variation of "sup I'm new"

You're a title.
(Seriously the title is always something along the lines of "hi I'm new!" and then the body of the thread is all "... Yeah.")

Silly digression aside, hi! I'm new! Well, okay, not really, this account is more than a year old. Basically I signed up thinking 'maybe one of these days I'll want to vote in one of the polls or something' and then promptly forgot that this forum was even a thing. Go me, I guess.

My motivation for actually deciding to use this account boils down to 'I am really bored and the forum I used to go to for my play-by-post needs has kind of died.' Most of the people I enjoyed playing with have moved on, and the (four or five) people who remain I don't particularly enjoy playing with. I have other ways to get my RPing fix (mostly via IRC) but sometimes IRC just doesn't do it for me the same way play-by-post does. So, while rewatching the We Love Katamari LP, I was reminded of this place and thought 'enh, why the hell not?' So here we are.

With that out of the way, on to more details about myself I guess; my interests and the like. You can prolly guess 30-40% of what I'm a fan of just by looking at my avatar and signature, though. Besides that, my interests are fairly eclectic. I like comics: I like some of The Animes, though I'm not a huge fan thereof: I like vidjagaems (well, duh, how else would I have encountered Naka in the first place if that weren't the case?) I also have the dubious combination of being an incredibly blunt person and vomiting up huge amounts of pointless words (zing).

...

wait i just zinged myself

Ah, heck, I think I'll just quit while I'm ahead. Expect me to lurk a little before actually joining any games, in order to get the lay of the land, pick up on unspoken rules/conventions and learn who the hell people are anyway. In the meantime, it's nice to meet all of you (presumably) wonderful peoples, and I hope to have a pleasant time. Or whatever.

Well, you seem alright in my book. Maybe cool, even. And something about 20%. We'll see in times to come.

Anyways, I'm Gaia, and this is... Well, you know already.

I like Homestuck myself, and I've seen the first season of FiM. Post related to either should go in their respective threads, though light referencing and crap is cool beyond...

Also, you shouldn't have to lurk for too long to see our "Hidden Rules." Someone has organized them in an easy-to-copy quote. That person is extremely disinterested. You'll see what I mean, later... Actually, that joke was a bit of a stretch...

Please enjoy your stay~

Fairly sure I've given up.
I'm just gonna state 'welcome to VE'. Indeed, after several dozen of introduction topics that all seem incredibly similar, you find them to be lacking in variety. I once stated an introductory TOPIC may've been a better idea, but the majority preferred an introduction BOARD. Oh well.

I do accidentally forgot to often welcome people because their threads are so similar. At some point, the welcomings too get predictable. First there's the 'unofficial' set of rules that gets posted, then there's the 'do you like Vocaloids' question, the mad scientist saying he wont experiment on you yet, the faux king saying you're a potential minion.. for a while, there was one who posted a 'new mask that your life-energy was bonded to' for every intro.

I myself at some point had a carbon copy post at some point, and used that to post in every topic, yet it just didn't work out.. If more than a single person joined the forum on one day, I could easily get confused with whose topic I had already posted in, and at some point just went 'never mind'.

So yeah. Ahem. Long rant, I suppose. My apologies. You'll soon come to notice the rest of the board isn't quite as dull as the introduction section is, though, so do not worry.

And well.. Welcome to VE.

Welcome to Naka's herd.

/] Brohoof.

We've got a Pony thread someplace, although it's getting dusty. I'd also like to welcome you as a potential new RPer. Kuma is the RP Mod, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask either of us. I'm one of the DMs for the Persona RP (which, sadly, has an almost full roster - you could sneak in as Devil if you wanted).

I look forward to seeing your posts~

Flutters is the best.

Follow it and you'll be fine
Welcome to the Vagrant Epochers!
Remember,
  • No double-posting - use the Posted Image button.
  • Proper punctuation and capitalization is recommended if you don't want to be yelled at.
  • Troll people at own risk; certain people can get you into a fuss.
  • Overly large signature images should be enclosed in a spoiler tag.*
  • This isn't a LP forum as Naka said before, so in case you forget just post a link to your channel on your signature and that's all we'll see of it.
  • No NSFW links or pictures on the forum. If you're the kind of person that is into that kind of thing just keep it away from the Epochers.
    If it is labeled as such, Naka allows a little NSFW links (such as Danbooru) to be posted.
  • Check if there is already a topic about something you think isn't on the forum yet, use that search hyperlink thing beside Members.
  • If you have either Steam and / or Skype, you can join our Steam group and contact either me or anyone else that's in the Skype chat to add you into it.
  • Let's not be an immature person and act like adults now.
  • You going to RP? There's a forum for that. Not on your intro topic though. It would become spam regardless. **

    Remember these and you should be fine...for now.
    Good luck out there.

    * Thanks to Kumakaori
    ** Thanks to Naku



You're good in my book :l

However, JB kinda alreadly said what I wanted to say on that regard.

Yo~ Welcome to this place we call VE.

Please do not forget to have fun, life isn't life if you're not having fun.
Oh, and please don't eat me. I'm a Vocaloid, not actual candy.

And PLEASE tell me you know what Vocaloids are.
We'll get along just fine if ya do.

That is not how you spell Rarity :I

That there is a Persona RP pleases me. I'll see ifn' I can't sneak my way into whatever spots are open (though given my ocd about these kinds of things and how long it takes me to write bios, I have a feeling said open spots will be filled by the time I'm ready). That there is a dedicated pony thread also pleases me and does not surprise me in the slightest. I expect to spend a lot of time there because I spend far more time thinking about Cartoon Horses than is probably healthy.

Lurking is common courtesy on the internet. Even if there's a handy-dandy convenient list thing, one should always observe the proverbial local customs in action. It is a good habit to have, especially when behaving like an idiot can get you banned. It's not like this is SA, where getting banned leaves you out ten bucks, but even when it's free it's still a good idea to make the best possible first impression.

I do, in fact, know what a vocaloid is! I find them vaguely uncanny valley-ish in action, but the designs are nice!
