Oh hi, I'm Leviathan Mist, and I'm here because I like anime music, and J-Pop in general. I don't like to disclose personal information, but I can share some of my interests.

I love to play video games, especially RPGs. My favorite RPG series are the Namco Tales, Dynasty Warriors, Disgaea, and old-school Final Fantasy series (before 7). I'm also a huge fan of video game music, and some of my favorite VGM composers are Nobuo Uematsu, Yoko Shimomura, Yasunori Mitsuda, and Kenji Ito. My favorite J-Pop artists are Minori Chihara, Elisa, Yui Horie, and Suara.

Will I blend in and become a regular here? It'll take some work, there are very few forums I can say I visit regularly, even after trying to join many. Perhaps I need some motivation. ;)

Thanks for joining and hope you stick around~ I'm sure you'll fit in, our community is rather wacky, but that makes it fun. Make sure to read the rules and enjoy!

Well yeah, a good, friendly community is always a plus, but that alone isn't enough to keep my attention for long periods (months+). I usually end up practically abandoning every community I join, and rarely even reach 100 posts anywhere. I think the key reason is that most boards like these are specialized to one area, for example, this one is mainly focused on anime-radio, which may expand to topics such as anime or japanese music. However, as a human, I have many interests, and just one interest usually won't keep my attention forever... my other interests are better suited for discussion at communities which specialize in those, because I'll have a greater audience there. Even if this forum has sub-forums for those interests, it would be irrational to, say, expect the people browsing the video games subforum to have the same detailed discussions as people at GameFAQs or other specialized gaming forums.

Anyway, I kind of went off on a tangent there, but thanks for the response!

#hand Hi, my name is Kibs, and I will probably be banning you later. You see, I don't like people who insult my community by implying it's too narrowly focused to keep the attention of someone who most likely has ADD, and abandons communities based soley on the fact that they're all not all inclusive, and fail to realize that no one community is going to serve every community need they have.

Enjoy your stay. While you can #naked

Welcome welcome! Don't worry about Kibbles over there. He doesn't bite... most of the time.
If there ever was a forum to frequent it would be this one because you just never know what kind of hilarity could ensue at any given moment. On that note, I'm sure you'll fit right in!
Enjoy

Well at least you're honest about your feelings. :P

Eh, in all honesty, I meant no offense to this community, and I wasn't even referring to this board, I was referring to a hypothetical situation which tends to apply to any new board I join. This is the first time I've said anything about my tendency to leave communities on any board though, so maybe you guys can assist me, or something. :P

I must say, I never expected such a turnout in a simple introduction thread. That's a good sign right there, it means you guys are active, which is rarely the case anywhere else. On that note, I figure it may have been a mistake to say anything about it, when it's really my problem to begin with. I look forward to future shenanigans with you guys. :P

Welcome! I'm Chris.

Hope you enjoy your stay at 91.8!

Although if we were a hotel, we'd be the kind you see in a horror movie where you try to check out, but then all of a sudden the clerk turns out to be a brain sucking monster therefore she cannot check you out and then you yourself become a brain eating monster and make the hotel your home forever.

Hi guys, thanks for all the responses! I must admit, I never expected so many responses to a simple introduction topic. That's not a bad thing though. An active community draws more members. :D
