Hey guys, I'm new here... what's this place really about anyway?

Hi! I'm Cail and it's nice to meet you grin

When you ask what this place is about, do you mean TV Tropes in general or just these here forums? TV Tropes is the giant wiki-style literary device database that we maintain. Along the wy we all gathered on the forums and created our own little community. Yack Fest (which we're on now) is for any random chat, Troper Covens is a forum where different groups of people congregate to talk about their shared interests, Fourm Games is for, well, games. There are also On-Topic conversations, which can be about anything from politics to sports to science and are a bit more formal. You can feel free to join any thread you want! Just introduce yourself and join he conversations!

Finally. This is the third time I try to write this essay. I blame the Foundation who took away my computer and left me stuck with an old cellphone.

Hello, tropers and tropettes. I'm Emily Prism, but you can call me whatever you want, I don't mind. I'm a G.I.R.L in my second decade of life in this world. My special abilities include drawing, writing and creating anything using imagination. I'm also a nightmare fetishist, specially if it involves surreal horror and mind screw. Also I know how to make games in RPG Maker and Twine, though since I lost my computer I can't make anything.

I'm into webcomics, RP Gs (both videogames and pen & paper), ponies, old games, dreams, occultism, and currently I'm in my way to become a portuguese teacher, altough my dream is to be a chemical engineer.

This profile was written while listening Iron Maiden's album The Book of Souls. Thank you for reading it to the end. I'm open to make new friends and have fun with you all.

Good night, TV Tropes.

Good night.

Finally, my troper page is up!

Thank you very much, Bacon Zorp. I'd just like to say I caught a glimpse of your Troper page and its amazing. Making one like that is one of the reasons I made an account after two years lurking around in the shadows. I too found many of my favorite works here in TV Tropes.

But I must go before getting too off-topic here. See you around.

Finally, my troper page is up!

I mean, you don't have to. It's just an optional choice, but it helps you get introduced to the community either way.

Anyway, welcome to the club!

#22460: Mar 7th 2017 at 12:34:57 AM

Hello friends, haters, lovers, my name is C9316 or C9 for short. I am a 23 year old soldier guy originally from the great State(Commonwealth if you wanna be technical) of Virginia but currently spending a year overseas defending freedom.

My hobbies include playing videos games mainly RP Gs like Dragon Age Origins and the Mass Effect series and reading books regarding the history of different countries (The book on Russian history gave me a lot of perspective concerning recent events, loved it.)

Other than that I sometimes entertain the though of becoming a poet/writer but that's another story.

I hope we'll be able to get along. Also you're welcome for my service.

Ok guess I'll elaborate a bit.

I'm a Danish teenager and I've been a member of this site for a while. Cool place.

My favourite shows are Avatar: The Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, Angel, Buffy, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Cowboy Bebop.

My favourite movies are Laputa: Castle in the Sky, Amelie, Almanya: Willkommen in Deutschland, Star Wars 4-7, Inside Out, Cabin in the Woods, Ex Machina, Groundhog Day, Scoot Pilgrim vs. The World, Only Lovers Left Alive, The Princess Bride, Lost in Translation, The Martian, Mulan and Interstellar.

My favourite books are Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Ready Player One, Ranger's Apprentice, The Martian, Jam and A Song of Ice and Fire.

My favourite musicians are Lorde, Arctic Monkeys and Carly Rae Jepsen.

In my free time I write quite a lot. I'm working on like 5 masterpieces that will all come out soon (never). I also watch an unhealthy amount of Youtube videos.

I think that's mostly it. Glad to be here :)

Um.. hi everyone. You can call me Scarecrow and I'm 16. I'm from Massachusetts and I live on the South Shore. I plan on being a writer. I LOVE horror, especially Stephen King and the show Supernatural. I also enjoy rock music, from the classics to modern indie rockers. I've been lurking on this site for about a year and a half and I finally decided to see what else it has to offer.

Hey guys.

A friend introduced me to this site about 5 years ago and I've been lurking here ever since reading about various works and their tropes. I like cartoons, movies, anime, and video games. A few of my favorite characters include Sayaka Miki, Nick Valentine, The Iron Giant and Doctor Emmet Brown.

#22469: Mar 15th 2017 at 11:17:13 PM

Well, I suppose I better make myself known in not just the RP circles.

Greetings, my name is G2BattleConvoy. I am a self-proclaimed Ginger British Mecha Geek, and as of 2014, totally obsessed with Gundam and all other kinds of robotic machinery. Currently, I'm studying for a degree in CGMA, although I am also moonlighting on a Discord-related project.

I actually starting reading TV Tropes back in 2012-2013, so it has kinda Ruined my Life. A longtime fan of the Transformers, Star Wars and all kinds of video games.

Don't expect me to be an expert on them all, though.

I've also taken up fanfic writing as a hobby, though I have limited my projects considerably. Hopefully, I can be of some help to this maddening website.

Hello hello hello, I'm new here and I hope I don't offend anyone :-) I have interest in the great number of things, although science of the biological sort and alternate history novels are probably near the top of that list of things that interest me .

I also maintain an account on the B12 forms, and alternate history.com. Now with that said, I am off to look at the rules for this place, which probably won't be too hard, :-)

Hi guys! I've been reading TV Tropes for years, and then I got an account and started adding examples here and there, and now, finally, after years upon years, I've finally realized that this wiki has a forum.

I'm an intelligent guy, but I'm not smart, y'know?

I love introspective webcomics, high brow movies, low brow tv shows, and all books.

Lies are all I have, really. Lies, and Vaudeville.
