Howdy, ya'll! -- Before you ask/assume, I will go ahead and say that I am not from Texas. I'm from Tennessee!

So, I am Chrissaysay, but you may shorten my name however you see fit when you talk to/of me ^^ My real name is Chrissie. If you call me by that, please try to spell it right. I know a 'y' ending is more common but :P

I have been looking for a forum like this for awhile. I've been active in nerd/gamig/anime subforums on other sites, but I really wanted to join a forum wholly dedicated to nerd culture. This place seems just right for me.

More about me...Uhh. For one, I'm not good at introductions ^^;

I'm 20 years old. I grew up playing Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow and watching the anime. Pokemon TCG, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball Z were also the shit back then. When I was young, like elementary school especially, I didn't really fit in with the rest of the kids. The girls thought I was weird and a tomboy, and boys thought I had cooties :P

As for the present, I am a full-time college student (though summer break just started for me o/). In my free time, I enjoy playing games, listening to music, and sleeping. I don't leave the house much due to lack of friends and funding. I want a job so bad T_T

My favorite game at the moment is Transformice (check out mah avatar). I'm very addicted to it. Look it up if you're curious, but beware of the consequences! I'm also playing Pokemon White right now :) I just finished watching Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood via Netflix. Not sure what I want to watch next in the anime department.

I'm a very sarcastic person and it shows in my "jokes". I also love puns/wordplay and long, extended metaphors. A lot people don't understand my humor and find it dry/crude/awk. I get a lot chirping crickets :\ But...Just don't take me to seriously ;)

That's it for my introduction. Hope it wasn't too awful. I tried to make it thorough, but that might have just made it long, boring, and undesirable to read XP See you guys around the forum! I think I'll enjoy my time here ^_^

Hello Chrissie and welcome to Nerd Forum! :)

It sounds like you'll fit in here just fine.

Also, I was unaware FMA was on netflix, I'll be checking into that. >.>

Oh I should do that too, but I'm more of a lurker in other forums and such. But I'll see what I can do~

Woah! This forum is young then :o Haa, I guess that explains why I didn't find it sooner. Glad I did though.

Thank for the welcomes, guys :)

Are you the sole creator and administrator? And do we have mods or anything?

Yep. Made it overnight on a whim actually, because there wasn't a good option for a similar forum. And currently it's just me running it, until we have enough members to need mods.

Are there any official rules? Cause usually there's a topic for the rules that everyone's supposed to read "or else"...sign in blood, you know :P

Sounds like a good set to me :)

What exactly constitutes bad language though? Sorry if that seems like it should need no explanation, but everyone has dfferent opinions on the matter. Is "shit" okay? I've already used that several times ^^; I assume F-bombs and racists slurs are a no-no :P
