Hey, I'm Tawn. I'm Canadian. I live in the boonies. I like to eat fruit. I'm bad at introductions, and tired, and most of you know me anyways. (: I use emoticons too much. I love reading introductions but hate replying because I feel cheap saying 'Hey, welcomesss!' thirty times. XD
I really really hope this forum and its website succeed. (Freehostia and Atspace, look into them. Atspace is kind of meh though.) In fact, it will succeed. It'd suck if this is just another dead Proboards forum a month from now (of which the current dead ones should be deleted honestly, instead of cluttering the internet). I'm going to try to channel my forum attention here actually, because Trueform is having some issues right now, and Werelist is huge and scary. ; D
So, let's all party it up! TGC will succeeeeed!
Were there introduction rules, I forgets... Anyway, hey.

Haha, I so know how you feel about the introductions. At TFW, I don't post introductions, because Vicious lectured me way back in the day about it being a one- or two-word post. But sometimes I don't know what to say to people, and just want to welcome them. I shouldn't get yelled at for that, right? Perhaps just for one-word posts in other focums, yes. But posts that are there just to welcome people? Anyways... I'm not happy with TFW and although there are a few nice people there, it seems like people mostly ignore what you have to say, for the most part. At least, with me, they do. And then there's the fact that the other red-tailed hawk there sort of overshadows me and makes me feel bad. She doesn't mean to... but... it's a popularity thing. I want to be my own hawk, dammit! So far, I like Werelist, and I think I'll stay here, but I want to post here, as well, and hope this forum does nicely. It's the one place I feel I'd have a little bit of a say if someone is rude or obnoxious... rather than just leaving, like I usually do. Anyways... hi. XD

Heyy. XD Haha, I so know how you feel about the introductions. At TFW, I don't post introductions, because Vicious lectured me way back in the day about it being a one- or two-word post. But sometimes I don't know what to say to people, and just want to welcome them. I shouldn't get yelled at for that, right? Perhaps just for one-word posts in other focums, yes. But posts that are there just to welcome people? Are you serious? That's ridiculous. An introduction is not discussion and tons of other people do that. O.o Gah, Trueform is just making me want to gouge out my eyes. There's on and off phases, but I feel yea with people ignoring what you say. And I think a lot of the members don't seem to take discussion seriously at all. But maybe I come off the same way, I don't know. There are definately people who keep be there though too, yup. Who's the other hawk apart from, I guess Meirya? Grrr, kick those obnoxious pricks when you see them, yes! =D

Yeah, I know... I thought it was ridiculous, too. I was like, wtf? XD Meh... whatever.
Yeah... it's like there's this whole "Oh, we don't like drama! Don't start drama!" thing going on but behind the scenes, it seems there is... drama.
Yeah, it's Meirya. I don't have anything against her - she seems all right. It's just that she seems to be very well-known and no one even seems to realize I'm alive. Maybe it's just me being a territorial hawk. XD
Haha, I'd kick them if I wouldn't get banned for it. XD
Blah... I'm tired of this ordinary black type. I want to start posting in red, my normal color. I hope no one objects to that.
It's funny, I'm just rambling on and on in your thread. That's how I normally am, where I feel comfortable. At places like TFW, though... I'm more... subdued.

Dawww, I loves rambling! We can ramble together forever and ever. As the background is white right now, I wouldn't personally mind red. =D You could just poke Dani. ^^
Mmm, about the drama, that's quite true. Behind the scenes is more true. I hate to be twofaced to anyone, but it's really not the members who make things blow things up all the time in my personal observation. I think that's probably one of the reasons I'm so frustrated with the place.
Aw well, we make this our home! -digs hole- ; D

You know what's funny? The ads at the top. I'm already affecting them. XD Because I mentioned hawks... we have... "Power Animals" and "Falcon Hoods & Hoodmaking." XD
Anyways...
Okay, red, it is.
Yeah, it seems to be some issue with some of the mods and admins there, I think.
I think I've asked you this before (and obviously forgotten), but are you therian and if so, what's your theriotype?
I'm curious about these things, and if it's here and in writing, I won't forget it anymore. XD
Mod Edit: Sorry Min! The red was destroying my eyes!

Maybe it's just me being a territorial hawk. XD And Meir is awesome, but part of her brand of awesome is a degree of extroversion that some, most of the system included, have trouble competing against. (And rarely is Shang, our biggest extrovert, allowed to cut loose and fully be himself. Usually it mortifies one or more of the rest of us.) We may very well end up being closer to you than her, after we get to know you, because of that. *g* Blah... I'm tired of this ordinary black type. I want to start posting in red, my normal color. I hope no one objects to that. Any color that shows up against the background is fine with us. -Shainin, Rhun, & Nihil (it's a party up in here!)

Colour tags are open. XD Dang, I got no sweet animal ads. Currently for me it has sparkly writing ads. :C But it's cute writing! Har, yes, staff. -pokes at them- Which, I am now, actually. I feel like a third wheel a bit though.
I don't really consider myself a therian, big ramble on why, I always change reasons cause there's lots and usually one is at the front of my mind, so we'll skip them today, but I do consider myself a bat thing. No species (there are 1000 after all, with little information on lots and lots), but not all bats. I'm thinking a sort of random mix. But when I get the motivation I'll open up all the books hiding in the basement again. Of course, it might not be 'bat', that's just the image I've put to it, and that's a pretty biased image. XD

Garnethost - Lol, yeah... I'm definitely an introvert. I can seem extroverted, as in - I can be very chatty online with people I consider friends. At home, offline, though, I'm one of the biggest introverts. It just kind of hurts because well... I'm a hawk, and we aren't that common. And it would be nice to at least be able to get the time of day from another hawk, or at least to be recognized a little. Mier's not the only hawk.
Tawn - Yeah, I figured color tags were open. I don't need falconry hoods - we have plenty at the raptor center. But we could definitely use new gloves. I have to search long and hard to find one that doesn't have a hole in one of the seams (they are not real falconry gloves) - and Sammy's big talons always find a way of poking into those seams and leaving a mark on you. XD It's not serious, but it's uncomfortable - and annoying as hell trying to find gloves with no holes. Anyways... rambling again. Yay, me.
Like you care about bird-of-prey gloves. BUY ME MORE GLOVES! XD
Oh, okay, that's all right, then. I think I missed that somehow. Bats are cool, though.

I already know you. I don't need to be nice and lay out the welcome mat. I have -minions- for that.
