Hey! I'm new here.
« on: November 26, 2018, 12:51:20 AM »
I'm uhh... well to be honest, I  don't really feel quite comfortable giving out my name right now.
Cold water, and all that - if that makes sense -  >.>

I'm just exploring to be quite honest, and I want to see if this is a place that I would enjoy being in.

As eager as I am to be welcomed into this community, I'd really rather keep the amount of personal information at a minimum (for now)
So, you can just call me by my username 'Korfrato' (Heart-brother in Esperanto ^_^), or Atlas, since that's a nickname I get a lot. (Unless that causes confusion with other users, of course.)
I'm eighteen years old and identify as male, and that's about as much as I feel comfortable with right now. If you want to know more, you know where to find me; strike up a conversation. I never say no to the opportunity to meet more people.

I hope to hear from you all soon.
-A friend
Hoot hoot.

Hello Korfranto, welcome to the forums! I'll have trouble memorizing that name I think.
Feel free to explore the place! If you need anything make sure to ask.
See you around!
Everyone seems to have it, so here's mine

Before anything, thank you for the warm welcome. It is greatly appreciated.
Regarding this:
I'll have trouble memorizing that name I think.
Etymology always seems to assist when I need to remember words, so here goes:

"Korfrato" can be split into two words:
Koro and Frato
Koro means heart. (Much like the word 'Core' in English)
Frato means brother and shares an etymological background with the English "brother" too! It comes from the Latin 'Frater'.

Oh no, I'm explaining linguistics to strangers again, aren't I?
I hate it when that happens.

Anyway, thanks again for welcoming me ^_^
Hoot hoot.
