New Members: Introductions

Hello! My name is MathCat, although I am also known as Grassy_Aggron on another forum (I saw there was a username by Aggron, and decided it would be best to avoid confusion). As my username suggests, I enjoy math - specifically algebra - and I own five cats. Yes, I am a crazy cat lady, although I've started at a pretty young age!

My favorite Pokemon are Aggron, Volcarona, and Pyroar, with the legendaries Articuno and Rayquaza also high on the list. I have a lot of experience writing and role playing, and I hope to test myself here. I will admit, however, that I do tend to lose motivation in spurts. I am hoping to get over this with some forced participation. I always tend to do better with a deadline!

That being said, I must warn you that my current laptop of five years is failing (and if I miss an "f" in a word, forgive me, as the key works half of the time). I'm hoping to get a new one this week, so while I will be creating a character, I will be leaving her in the WIP section until I'm sure my new computer is working correctly. There's no point in getting put into a RP only for my laptop to die on me, and my smartphone is... Well, let's just say auto correct likes to make others laugh at my expense.

I look forward to fighting with and against all of your characters! Special thanks to the owner of Plague - had I not discovered him on DeviantArt and looked into such a wonderful character, I would not have found Epidemic Johto.

Edit: Never mind about the time zone question. Uxie sniped me on that. Thank you!

Welcome to EJ, Mathcat!
I'm happy you found us. ^^
I hope you like it here, and I can't wait to see you up and at it in one of our teams! All of those are great pokemon, and would do great in any of our teams if you were to make them.
And thanks for the shoutout to Plague, lol. I'm always ecstatic to find others who like the broody little grump. XD
You're always welcome to follow his shenanigans with the others on the Ecruteak team.

I do extend that suggestion to checking out all our teams, as everyone here are all very talented/creative minded, and I suspect you'll fit right in. If you have any questions, feel free to message- I'm always happy to lend an ear.~

Hello there! The name's Sam and I just joined.  I would like to learn what to do next and how everything works around here. I'm so glad that I stumbled across this amazing place and I look forward to participating in anyway I can.

I'm a Freelance artist who likes to write in my spare time. I was hesitant about joining EJ to start with because I haven't had much experience in RP. But after browsing this place a bit I finally got up enough courage to join, although i'm probably gonna need some help settling in and stuff haha!

Hello and welcome to the forum!
It seems that you've found the rules thread, where the majority of what you'll need to know can be found. Feel free to take a look at the existing roleplays to get a feel for how our format looks and what to expect content-wise.

And no worries- we welcome anyone interested in roleplaying, regardless of experience. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to message our friendly staff!

Hello hello, and welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay here. c:

I see you have already accepted the The Rules, but giving that a good read through should give you a general idea of how everything works. If not, looking at examples from others could help, like the RP post format, and profile approval.
Most of our threads have their own explanations in their first post too, such as the Mart and safe house, but it never hurts to ask if you are still confused!

As for what to do next, I'd say head over to the Profile Computer and start fleshing out a character! There are profile templates to use and plenty of other profiles to look at to get a feel for what they want. Just remember to watch the warnings and safe house threads once you are in the RP to keep on top of your team.

Again, welcome! Feel free to toss me a PM for anything, or any of the staff. <:

Thank you. All of you are so sweet and welcoming. I already feel at home haha!

Hello, i am new here, and i want to know, where do I begin? is there any tutorial or history i need to read? thanks for the help

Hello! The first place you ought to look is the rules thread here.

Greetings. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Zenzel though you may call me Zen. I am a seventeen-year-old male from England. Currently, I am studying for my qualifications I shall use to apply for University and I work part-time in a Pharmacy. I have prior experiences of role playing as a pokemon elsewhere which I hope will aid me here. I look forward to weaving macabre tales with you all.

Greetings Zenzel. I see you have already agreed to our Rules and ToS therefore I have approved your starting rank. Make sure to read over our Hatchery rules in our Profile Computer prior to submitting a character since they are more detailed. We look forward to what you will create. Happy surviving!

Hey there. I have just joined but am having issues putting in an avatar. I am on a mobile device and i cannot copy the image from photobucket, it keeps giving me an ad instead. Is there a way someone could help me get the link for the regular Persian avatar? I would appreciate it, thanks!

Our apologies. Photobucket recently changed their policies involving image sharing, and we're still in the middle of moving the images to a different site. I'm not sure if we have moved the avatars yet, unfortunately, but I'll see what I can find out.

Please delete my account. I won't be coming back.

Hello! I’m boo!sugar and I’m a 23 year old artist. I enjoy horror, Nintendo games, drawing, and writing (whenever I have the energy to do it.) I found this site while looking for an art reference on Google, and stumbling down the rabbit hole led me here! It’s like a dream come true. I’ve been aching for a forum RP experience like I used to do back in the day.

My first Pokémon game was Gold, and I’ve been playing (almost religiously) since. My favorite Pokémon is Greedent! The fat squirrel makes me extremely happy.

I’d also like to note here that I am disabled, I have a TBI and a non-epileptic seizure disorder. Sometimes I may forget things, say things that don’t make sense, or repeatedly ask questions. I sometimes have difficulty understanding things. Also, I have seizures 3-4 times a week, and sometimes beforehand, I’ll attempt to do normal tasks while my brain is “shutting down.” I’ve been on websites before where I’ll post random gibberish before I have a seizure. It’s hard to explain, but if I post something where it doesn’t belong, that’s why!

Anyways, I hope to have a great time here and I can’t wait to RP with all of you!

Hello! I'm glad you found your way here, and I hope you enjoy your time.
