Title: *Dances a bit*
Post by: Valeron on November 03, 2010, 10:23:50 AM
Hello people I don't know yet. My name is Valeron, but you can call me Val. I've been browsing the interwebs for some time, and I just recently came across this site. I've been a fan of the original Land Before Time for a while, ever since I saw it when I was 5.

I've been browsing this website for a bit, and I noticed that there was someone here who had THE EXACT SAME BIRTHDAY as me. And I don't mean just the same date, I mean the same EXACT day. lbt/cty_lover was the account name. I would like to meet this person.

So anyways, I'm a new guy here, and I'd like to meet you guys. Is there any place I could post piccys of me?

Hey Val! Welcome to the GoF! Call me Iris or Mumbling, whatever you prefer :)

There is a place where you can post pictures, it is in the 'Show us' section under 'After Midnight', however you will not be able to see this forum until you have 15 - 20 posts (this is for the privacy, not everyone who joins has to be able to see everyone's pictures ;))

Have fun! :wave :)

Makes sense. I mean, you wouldn't want any random person to see pics of you, now would you?

You seem like one awesome person, Iris. And I probably will have a ton of fun here. ^.=.^

Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention one thing about myself, although it is in my signature. I'm a furry, and (pardon my swearing) I'm damn proud to be one.

You'll find many people on this forum who are furries (or scalies). Is your signature your character?

Exactly. And thanks! :)

Well, my signature is a plushie of my character. My boyfriend drew it for me.

And there are a good amount of furries here? Nice!

It's an adorable character, I love the little red tie :D

Thanks, Iris. If you want, I could link a commission I got of my fursona.

Sorry I can't access it since I'm not a Fur Affinity member! It's okay though, perhaps just [ IMG] it? :)

Thanks. The artist I commissioned is damn amazing. Although she focuses on more... adult work.

Welcome with us Valeron :)
It is always a pleasure to welcome new members to our community.

Welcome to the forum Valeron!

lbt/cty_lover is one of our very active members, particularly well known for creating a lot of awesome games in the Party Room section, such as the Geography game. You might want to join some of the games or play in the role plays, if you're so inclined.

Glad to see you here! :wave

Hiya Valeron, and welcome to the GOF :wave!

My real name is Anna, and other members call me CT or by my username, so I have no preference as to which one I'm called ;).

Cool fursona, BTW.  At first I thought it was a raven, but then I noticed the bat-like wings.  What exactly is your fursona :)?

Its a dwaggy, silly. It just has a hat because I wanted my fursona to share something with my own self, and I love my fedora. So my fursona has a fedora-shaped thingy on his head. Oh yes, that hat is a permanent attachment.

Whoa! You've only been a GOF member for a day and you've already posted 27 times?! :blink: Holy buckets, you're fast! :wow

At any rate, welcome to The Gang Of Five! :D Awesome to see such an enthusiastic new member! :smile

Sad to say, a couple of months ago lbt/cty_lover announced that he was leaving the GOF, as he felt that he was no longer contributing much to the forum, and had too many other things going on in his life. However, checking his member profile shows me that he has visited the forum since then (today in fact). So here's hoping that he'll prove me wrong and start posting again. :p

Welcome to GOF Val :D

My real name is Robert, but I usually go by Rob. Feel free to refer to me that way ;)

I really like how your fursona looks. Did you draw that yourself?
Title: *Dances a bit*
Post by: Valeron on November 04, 2010, 11:12:12 AM
Nah, it was a commission. I wish I drew it.

Either way it looks really neat. I hope you enjoy your visits here :yes

:wave Hi there Valeron :wave

Welcome to the Gang of Five forum. Apologies for the belated greeting. Seems as though you've sloted in nicely already so it would be pointless for me to do my usual routine of "come on in and make yourself comfy"  :lol

Quite the artist I see! Good stuff! Another talented eye to join our ranks!  :D

Anyway, glad to have you on board with us. Enjoy your stay! ;)

The artist's name it Tojo the thief, but she doesn't really use Deviantart anymore.
