Hi, I'm Arikyrenne!
For all of those who wish to "eat" me, I ask that you kindly reconsider, as I am already being eaten by a monster known as "homework." And I don't think "homework"'s master, "school," will be very happy if he finds out that someone is missing from the student body!
And for all of those who wish to "welcome" me, I hope that I'm not that bad that you would want to get rid of me with some dirty (or even non-dirty) trick!

Anyway...

I'm female (if you didn't guess by my user name), and am currently attending college. I'm a pretty big Sonic fan, especially since I rediscovered the games back in Freshman year of high school (I somehow completely forgot all about Sonic and co. for a few years...I think during the Pokemon craze! Then I opened a magazine, and saw an advertisement for SA2, and thought, "I know one of those hedgehogs!" ...Maybe that's why Shadow (with all of his forgetfulness) is one of my favorite characters (along with Sonic, Knuckles, Blaze, Tikal...)). In fact, I discovered SonicHQ a couple years ago when I was completing a fifty-page Sonic fanfic!

I am also a fan of dragons and other mystical creatures (if they are good), and like (among many other animals) kittens and tigers and wolves (oh my!). I enjoy playing video games (mainly Sonic related or DDR nowadays), reading (fantasy mostly), drawing, zip-lining (though it's been many years since I last did that *sniff*))...and the list goes on.
I am typically quite patient, and I do my best to persevere whenever anything tries to bog me down!

I am very glad to finally join the MoFo as a member, after all those months of reading posts and wanting to reply, only to find out that I couldn't! (It took me so long to sign up due to my family's concerns about internet safety.) (Also, it always seems like there are no Sonic fans wherever I am (internet excluded), so I am very happy that I am now able to talk Sonic again!) I hope I shall make posts that are as interesting and/or funny as the ones I have read, and...well...I guess my sig says the rest!

(Edit: Just added and corrected some stuff.)

I know I've posted before on South Island, but, apparently, I never really introduced myself. So that's what I am doing now (as was ...recommended by certain members)!^^

Hi:wave , Ari(your first official unofficial nickname from me:] ), welcome to the MoFo. We hope you enjoy your stay here, which hopefully will be quite awhile, but please be aware that this board will soon be moved(around Valentine's Day to be precise) here, and we hope that you will join us when we move.:]

Nonesense, we have all kinds here, and the only way you could be bad enough to be driven away is if you repeatedly disobey the rules and I know you won't do that.;)

BTW, you said you like dragons; have you watched "The American Dragon: Jake Long" cartoon on Disney Channel? Finally, yes, it is great to be surrounded by fellow Sonic fans ain't it?

Sadly, I have only seen part of one episode of that series. (I don't watch TV much now that I'm in college (plus I don't get that channel), and, when I'm at home, my parents usually watch what they want to watch (typically not cartoons).) However, I have read the first two Dragonlord books (The Last Dragonlord and Dragon and Phoenix), which have to do with people being able to turn into dragons.

Hello!

If you're a dragon fan, have you seen the old Rankin-Bass cartoon, The Flight of Dragons? I think it was the movie that single-handedly hooked me on the whole fantasy genre.

Rats!^^
...or, if I wanted to be more dramatic, I could say something along the lines of: NOOOOOOOO!!!! (think RotS)
Yep, that's right! I'm also a Star Wars fan, although my view of Darth Vader has been somewhat corrupted by something my dad said:
(I'll put it in spoilers in case you don't want to risk losing whatever view of him you currently have!)
Spoilers (Select To Read): My dad made a comment about the way Darth Vader reminded him of one of those pull-string toys, where you pull the string, and the toy says some preset phrase. (i.e. Darth Vader: *OBI WAN HAS TAUGHT YOU WELL*) Add on to that the fact that Darth Vader's suit has a CONTROL PANEL on the front of it, and he fits that description perfectly (instead of pull the string, it's push the button on the panel)! Ever since my dad said that, I can't watch the fight scenes (or even think about them, for that matter) in the origianl episodes without struggling to hold in my laughter!

Thanks for so many welcome messages!^^

Welcome to the forums.

I was at first surprised you knew about the "newbie eating" welcome but when I read your mention of you looking around for a while before posting (even though it was because you couldn't) it made more sense to me.

Similar thing with the subjectline, when I read "the infamous" I thought it was someone who had read a lot of "I'm new" threads and was commenting on them, as opposed to someone who was introducing themself. Well, since you read posts before posting, I guess a little bit of both would happen to be true, huh? By the way, speaking of patience, I sent this post with missing fields twice and had to start this post over each time.

Nah, don't listen to SX. I don't do the whole marry anything that could be in any way construed as female thing any more. It just wasn't working out, y'know?

'Sides, I think stairmaster's kinda taken over that racket now, though perhaps not as successfully, even if he doesn't restrict himself to just females. Talk to him if you're still interested in marrying somebody you scarcely even know over the internet.

Off topicness first, because I'm like that:

Ja. That show, I love the world and the concepts, but....well, the scrip-dizzle sends it all to the hizzle, fo shizzle.

Anywhom, welcome to the Mofo, a place were your destiny shall truely be born, for here is the land where mortal man, woman, in truth, any mortal being, and attain true godhood! For here, is the land where truely, dreams are made.

Or something, I dunno, merging the tourist board with the guild of con-artists seemed like a good idea at the time...

*Politely declines weaponry* I don't use...

*Get's weaponry shoved in her face*

Great...Now what do I do? Guess I have no choice but to add them to my inventory. But just because I'm a Shadow fan doesn't mean I would resort to using those items! ;-P

*gives you five free bombchus*

Whoops! Sorry about forgetting about that!

My updated inventory:
1 table lamp
1 box of poptarts
1 plastic sword
5 bombchus
1 AK-47
1 RPG-7 rocket launcher
x rockets
x amo clips
1 hug^^
and still -1 set of shoelaces (I'd better go get another set!)

(I think that covers everything...I'll double check later.)

Wow! And I thought the items in an inventory only got 'upgraded' towards the end of everything! (at least in most of the games I've played)

Oh yeah...And I thought that Burger King guy couldn't get any creepier...I WAS WRONG! ><

Man, now I feel rude for not giving the newbie a gift. You can have, er, some trapkits. I think I gots an Average Fire Trap Kit and possibly a couple Acid Splash Trap Kits. I dunno. Bastard shopkeepers won't buy 'em, though (think they're stolen - dunno where they got that idea), so you can have 'em.

Oh and SX, do not fear Crimson and his omnipotent Boxers of Love. Give into him, you know you want to. ;D Submit to his every whim and will!

1 plastic sword
5 bombchus
1 AK-47
1 RPG-7 rocket launcher
x rockets
x amo clips
1 hug^^
x trapkits (hopes they aren't really stolen)
and, finally, 1 set of new shoelaces!

*Sees ChibiBecca eying the shoelaces*

...Though how come I get the feeling that those new shoelaces aren't going to be around for too long?^^

When you click on whatever the "Add Reply" says, there should be a box that says "Use Emoticons" next to it. Make sure you click the little circle that says "Show" and you should have a variety of smilies to choose from.

If your post format is in HTML, just click on the emoticon you want to use.

(I hope this helps!)

*is surprised that she's not burnt to a crisp from the high flame...(the lack of air in the concrete must have put it out)*

*realizes that lack of air = no oxygen...* MUST GET OUT!!!

*struggles to stay calm...what to do, what to do!*

Duh! That's what my inventory is for!

*uses acid from acid splash trap kit to burn way through pan and concrete*
*manages to get out of shark* (maybe shark doesn't like concrete and metal and burnt eggs...or was it me?)
**shark attacks**
*defends herself with plastic sword, throws box of poptarts to shark in order to distract it (told you I was saving them for an emergency!), then knocks it silly with table lamp*
*realizes that she's now stuck in the middle of an ocean*
*takes opportunity to use new shoelaces to lasso shark before shark fully recovers from lamp-whacking* (sorry, ChibiBecca!)
*managaes to somehow ride shark back to shore*

*pant* *pant*

...I'm back!!!!

*gets another box of poptarts* (those things are useful!)
*gets another set of new shoelaces* (useful, too!)

And my inventory is back to where it was, minus one acid splash trap kit! (not bad, eh?)

(Edit: added emoticons!)

That's some good inventory usage right there. I could learn something from you. I mean, I always have goodness knows what in my pack and yet whenever I come up against something I just hit with my sword. To be fair, you can solve like nine problems out of ten by hitting it with swords, but there's always that one time where hitting it with swords just won't cut it, y'know? I should try seeing what crap I've accumulated more often; never know what I might find.

Anyway, yeah. If those trapkits are stolen from anywhere, it woulda been from a dungeon or something, and those are totally meant to be looted so 's all good. I think there might be a sonic trapkit in there somewhere too, btw.
