Haha, I always like to reach out to people and make them feel welcome. I know what it's like being new to a certain forum and not really knowing who to talk to. Some people really mean the best, but they just don't always have much to say, and they seem kind of uninterested and bored. And I don't want to be like that, I want members to feel like they can always talk to me if they need to. I can't resist being nice to people. And you seemed like a really nice person, which you are as I have found out, and I wanted to get to know you. It's not often that I do much more than post in someone's intro topic and offer friendship than leave... Most of them don't even take me up on the offer, but that's okay, whatever floats their boat, right? And sure, sure... If I ever annoy you or something, just say so. I hate annoying others, but sometimes I do.
Actually, my goals were simple too. Just post wherever you want to. XD Lol. And this is my first actual busy Pokemon site other than Serebii. but Serebii annoyed me because they wouldn't allow regular members to use avatars yet the staff get avatars? No way, I'm not going to go to a site who could care that little about their members. I will join a forum based on how humble the staff are, actually... If they sit there and act like kings of the world, I'll leave. If they are actually intelligent and they do what they NEED to do, then I'll definitely stay and enjoy my time. But mostly I enjoy talking and answering random forum questions as I see them interesting.
Hmm, I think you're right about something... I just should not have used the word normal because there is no such thing. I was thinking more along the lines of a full family that gets along well, lol. Kid living with parents, parents being together, etc. And I have some pretty bad issues with both of my biological parents... I was raised by my mothers parents.
Mmhmm. You are totally right about that. I used to love video games for the sole purpose that they would take me away from my reality, from my problems. I have always been a very intelligent human being, but my problem is... I could never communicate with anyone at my school. I don't know why, but they couldn't understand me, and it was like I was years ahead of them. It was like they said nothing but stupid teenage crap. I don't care about little boyfriend problems, I don't care about getting drunk, high, or jumping out of an open car door at 40 mph. That's all stupidity that I do not wish to join in on. I would rather talk about important things and study and actually work for a future, and most kids my age are like, "LET'S GET MARRIED AND HAVE BABIEZ." People are so ignorant and it frustrates me beyond words. It has been basically like that ever since I was a little kid, and games have been my escape because I could do whatever I wanted, it was nice. I do have downfalls because of that though... I learned to run from my problems, did not learn how to deal with people, and eventually the obsession became so great that I couldn't even pull out of my own virtual world in school. I just kept daydreaming uncontrollably. I am trying to break that spell now for college.
Okay, haha, I guess then we'll get to know each other very well, which is really awesome. It's been a while since I've really gotten to talk to someone who loves to talk as much as you do. I love it! And you know what, that could be absolutely right. ;)
