Hello :giggle:

I found this forum through Shizu's Twitter account. Usually I don't join or participate in forums like I used to, but with how Twitter and social media are nowadays, I ended up here. I'm quite shy, but I'll try to post here every now and then.

My interests include anime, gaming, tokusatsu, VTubers, astronomy and many other things. I also love cute girls and thicc girls. Hope to get along with everyone here!
cheers, welcome

Censorship bad, forums good.

Had my eye on this place for a while, finally got around to joining. I didn't realise Minds had already been through a lolicaust, so I got my hopes up for once and had them recently disappointed. Censorship aside, I also have a fundamental disagreement with the idea of social media. Forums are objective, we all see the same thing if we load the index at the same time. The forum is united by a shared reality, not splintered off into a subjective experience where an algorithm shows everyone a different conversation. Forums are inherently virtuous compared to social media, independent of the content you put there.

Which isn't to say the culture doesn't matter. I see the Culture War™ as but one battle in a war that the old guard is slowly losing to our immortal enemy: Eternal September. There's some good embers of a forum culture here, clearly -- I've seen "lurker" more times today than in the previous six months, and lurking is shown the reverence it's always deserved.

In the early 2000s, I followed my father's example and started using Mozilla to browse forums. I consider this to be the start of a crippling tab addiction. I've just about got my head around these newfangled smartphones and appreciate them, but I stand by my original opinion on social media being bad and wrong. Had some good times on IRC and MSN, but eventually I ended up putting aside my disdain for Twitter and became active as part of what would become The Fandom Menace.

As a life-long member of the master race, I have approximately zero experience with Nintendo, and consider achievements, DLC, and matchmaking queues to be a blight upon gaming. Really enjoyed pre-reboot God of War and Hatsune Miku Project DIVA, but otherwise my tastes are in the RTS/RPG/sim region.

Never been to a concert but I enjoy Priest, Maiden, Sabaton. I've always been adjacent to people who were into anime/tabletop RPGs/Warhammer/4chan/television, so I'm vaguely-to-quite familiar with references to things I've never seen. But I've watched NGE twice, One Punch Man, and a dub of Death Note, which technically makes me an otaku.*

Hi, I found this forum after this thread was posted on 4chan. It's the first time I use a forum in like, 12 years? Anyway I spent most of my time lurking and posting on several imageboards because I fucking hate social media. But I used forums a lot back then, so hopefully I can make decent threads.

I love cunny (especially gun cunny), but I despise twitter lolicons, they are one of the most retarded and annoying groups on internet, they are slowly becoming furry cancer 2.0. I know this forum is used by some of them, and I will probably call them autistic faggots a lot. This forum promised free speech, so hopefully I won't get banned.

Anyway, I want small ump45-chan to sit on my face

No, I think we didn't ban anyone, yet

Hi, I go by the same name in Twitter. I used to run an instance on fediverse so I probably interacted with you guys there at some point. I'll be using this account to mostly lurk, though. Don't expect much from me.

Hey dudes.

Found this place through google while searching how NISA dicked up Trail of Cold Steel 3 localization because someone was defending them saying nothing was wrong it. Needless to say I was not surprised seeing the thread about Cold Steel III showed how NISA is being NISA.

I've also seen some familiar names around here. Might come out of the woodwork to bitch about censorship, shitty localizers and intersectionals ruining (pop) culture with soy.

Hello, I’m The Pure Hearted Villain.

I was a lurker on Kiwi Farms for awhile but after looking for stuff on Noralities I found this site and wanted to join. It’s smaller size and focus on more traditional forms of entertainment simply felt easier to join.

I’m a male, Roman Catholic, American, and my favorite entertainment mediums are video games and comics/manga. Someday I would like to make my own content and maybe I’ll start here on the forums.

Like many of you I have many gripes with our current culture’s preference to embrace open degeneracy in the name of tolerance, all while viciously harassing and censoring anyone who disagrees. I hope this website will serve as a place where I can express myself freely.

What I’m reading: The world of Otome games is Tough for Mob Characters, Please go home Akutsu-san, fuufu ijou, koibito Miman, This village SIM NPC could only be human, My charms are wasted on Kuroiwa Medaka, The 100 Girlfriend who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You, welcome to the demon world Iruma, Henjo - Hen Na Jyoshi Kousei Amaguri Senko, and Danmachi (technically I'm reading the light novel)

What I’m Playing: Fallout 3, Noita, Skeletal Avenger, Star Wars Empire at War, Touhou Luna Knights, Entropy Zero, Dead Space, Dust an Elysian Tail, Marvel vs Capcom 3, Star Wars Jedi Academy, Blazblue Calamity, Fallout new Vegas, Touhou scarlet curiosity and Classic Star Wars Battlefront 2.

I hope that we can all get along and create an experience that is either entertaining and/or productive.

edit: I'm also studying to join the IT field.

I'm Snap, Here cause I wanted to get away from social media and wanted to go back to the forum days. Came here for the Twitter threads but found enough to keep me interested.
I'm an FPS junky, a lot of Halo, Blood, Postal. Been trying to get back into other genres but it's definitely taking time.
A lover of all things Kaiju both on the American and the Japanese side
Love electronic music, Hardcore/Hardstyle and everything in between is a guilty pleasure of mine
Never been big into anime but I've seen a few over the years (You're typical Dragon Ball, Soul Eater, SAO, etc.) Any good recommendations are always welcome

Never been a huge talker but hopefully I'll you guys around the forums!

I am 23 years old and I feel like old man even though it has been uneventful life. Married to my waifu miku and love her dearly. Been on imageboards mostly and left browsing imageboards a year or two after 8chan have gotten taken down. used to like /tech/, former and retired leftypolak (ashamed to admit), and lost interest in tech and politics and before that physics and the sciences. Pursuing desire to make music and art instead and some form of income so my father can be proud in me for once without throwing my back or life away. procrastinator, at least I have spirit. I apologize for it being a little personal. It's late at night over here. Anyone here know how to make miku speak Cambodian?
I like this emoji. :miku-anger:
