Hello! I'm Angder, I still consider myself fairly new, having only been here a month.

Welcome to the furry forums

I cant speak for anyone else here, but I am doing fine, though I am a little tired, a lot has happened these last few days.

Care to tell us anything about yourself?

Well I've been in an out of the Fantom for Years. I'm extremely socially awkward and a lot of people don't want that around. So I kind of ghosts in and out. Now and then but I've been aware of the Fantom sense the late ninety's I am in my thirties so.. A lot of my knowledge of it was before I was an adult and having very strict religious parents made it hard to express myself but I'm sure others have experience something similar as that.
There is a point where I was kind of part of the star trek community because I enjoyed that community and still do. But that was somewhat more "normal" to my parents. Because I had told them about wanting to be part of the furry fandom and they were not happy about it and when I told him that I wanted to sense of community of course their sense of community would be churchy stuff which I didn't want to have anything to do with that and they made me do that stuff for a little while but they realize that I was miserable doing that so they allowed me to be part of the Star Trek community for a while but then pull the rug out underneath me because something stupid happened that it's pointless to go into detail about.... So I just kind of was miserable for a couple years till I turned 18. I want to a couple conventions and they were not what I expected they were not like big ones they were kind off small and unofficial in kind of shady and kind off put a bad taste in my mouth. So I didn't go to anything for no few years. So I kinda stuck to the online community's like furcadia. But really there's more people were just playing the game just to play the game and they were really part of the fandom... So it was kind of a wash and I've met up with other furrys casually and never really works out..

Good to meet you Husky. I'm fairly new to the forums myself but I have been a furry for a little while now.

I also grew up in a religious home and they have not been accepting of my sexuality or interests and most recently my lack of religion.
