Hello Codyssweet.

I'm Otebon Albrecht and I'd like to welcome you to the Forum! As for where to get started, my advice is to sample a little bit of everything. If you wish to tell a story, find an RP that catches your interest or read up in the Literature section. There's plenty of art to view and games to play here. If it strikes your fancy, submit your own work!


Welcome!

Welcome. There isn't much to the fandom, just have fun, be yourself, etc. Have any questions, just ask on one of the boards on the forum.

Hello and welcome to the forum. I am Puncia and glad to be of any service. I hope you enjoy your stay.

If you need any help with your fursona, please consider the Advice: Creating a Fursona thread, as it has advice on the subject AND personal statements and stories from other members of the forum, giving you a detailed picture of the concept and ideas behind it.

The fandom is a very diverse and broad place, if you like art, draw or simply view other people's art! Like stories? RP is the way to go, Like technology? Go to the tech forum and post there! Want some advice on anything? Rants and Advice has you covered! Want to spout nonsense? The Random Thread is always there! XD

Looks like Anoni has the set up well in hand...


He's right though. Don't be afraid to just go exploring the forum and add your two cents where you feel it's appropriate!
