Like the title says, I'm Sly and I am very pleased to be able to find a community that loves animals as much as I do. I'm hoping to make many friends here. While I figure out this site and how it's run, thought I'd introduce myself and start with the socializing. :3
So, how is everyone tonight?
-
Everyone is silent, sadly ):
Welcome to the forums! Are you new to the furry fandom as well?
I hope you like it here

Mew, hello. I'm Raven the cat. Nice to meet you, I'm fairly new here myself and this place is wonderful, everyone is very friendly. I am having a spazzytastic time.
-
Yeah, I figured it was silent because of the time and it being in the middle of the week. School and work and all that jazz. Didn't expect a lot or responses tonight so the two that I see now are a pleasant surprise. (Two since I clicked the reply button anyway. :P )
As to your question Snow Kitties, yes and no. No in that I pretty much knew a very long time that I was a furry. Yes in that this is the first time I've actually been semi-open about it.
EDIT: And nice to meet you too, Raven. I'm glad to hear that this site has been so kind to you.

Ah. I didn't know about the furry fandom until a year ago, but I ha e always been one now that I look back. Like, always. Since I was a child.
-
When I was a kid I used to always pretend to be a fox. :3 I don't know, maybe it was the bushy tail? So I didn't choose fox lightly and due to popularity. I chose it because of history. Like you, I think I was a furry long before I even knew there was a classification for it.

Hi Sly, welcome to the forums ^^
I'm a fox myself. that's out of therianness.
I hope you enjoy your stay.
Have fun and feel free to PM me if you ever want to talk :3

Thank you, Kozy.
I've looked around quite a bit but there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity here. Is it just my timing?
Other than this one, I have been reluctant to create a thread too. I know you shouldn't make one if one already exists and I'm still just navigating this place. But it's a little awkward. I'm not quite sure how to join in anywhere. ^^;;
-
Just your timing, I think? It's only a little bit slower than the bigger forums I've used except at times.
I know how to join in places I just don't want to affect some places with my somewhat aloof presence so I tend to stick to Fun RP and Random. To be honest, I only use TFF when half busy using my iPod (Tapatalk). I think forums are an acquired taste but before you know it, you're hooked.
-
Most people spend their times in the role plays or the forum games. That's the thing I noticed about this forum right away. Unlike other forums it seems to be lacking in useful and informative jnfortmation. - it's there, but there isn't bushels of it. Instead it's actually a community for meeting people and hanging out.
-
I used to do forums all the time. I found out about furries and roleplaying on Gaiaonline. I guess I'm still more used to the pace of that site. But I can see both of your points. I tend to be more aloof myself. Also really socially awkward. :P
But I like nice conversations too. Not just RP and games. But I don't seem to be able to find any of that here. What forum category should I look into for that?
-
Sometimes conversations start up In the repetitive counting games. Otherwise search your topic and if you don't see it, make a new thread.
-
welcome sly hope you enjoy it here

Hey, welcome to the forums! ^_^
As for how quiet it is... yeah, the forum used to have more people active (back in the day, man I sound so old saying that X3 ) depends when you're on and what you're interested in I guess.
I mostly keep to the RP section these days and drop by when I have some spare time, so I know how you feel with not knowing how to best join in with what's going on... Hopefully you'll find a good time here though, there's always some good people around. Feel free to message me if you want some conversation, I can always find time to chat :)
