Am I The Only One?

[Deleted member 26105]

Ok, I have been a member since April 22 of 2012......I have 42 active posts.....And I am very familiar with forums...But my problem is that this site is so big, and the community is so vast, it's hard to find out what section(s) my thoughts and such belong. It's not like there is a thing on forums that you answer a few questions, and then sections could be suggested to you. Am I the only one who feels lost on this site?

One of the nice things is that AS is large enough to help meet the interests of a large and diverse worldwide membership.

One thing you could do is pick the forums that best express your interests. If you're interested in anime and manga, for example, you could concentrate on the appropriate forums.

Also, there are general forums, like Announcements, Site Support, and General Discussions, that may have topics of interest to you.

If you want to download, there are forums for the various genres. If you speak Japanese, there's a forum for that. If you like forum games, or just general spamming, that's available, too.

There are many, various opportunities to find neat and interesting things on AS. I would suggest exploring AS, and get into what interests you. Have fun with it! :)

Nothing explored, nothing gained. That's how things are in life and also online. Personally I wouldn't worry about finding your place, since you can always find something interesting at least in this forum every so often. You will find one in good time if you look hard enough.

And what do you want from this site?
Talking about something? Then you should got to appropriate section
You want something to download or share to community? Then you should do the same

In communication & discussion sections have not so many users, they are much more around downloading area

Never feel lost... Already know what section I'm interested at.... Most are interested at the Download Section.....

 

[HatoriTakaya]

Well most people are... until they want to find something more than simply downloading from this place.

It took a while before I could kind of know how everything went on in this site. Basically I just looked at the threads in the latest posts feed, and eventually started to figure out how people did things on this site. :P

It happens. To be honest, i only check a small number of threads. I review the downloads, then wander around the spam threads for a while.

How do you mean?

How do you mean?

I used the recent posts so that it would be relevant/in real-time.

I looked for: What kind of things are okay/not okay. How people talk and what kind of people visit. Popular topics and so forth. Also moderator/admin involvement.

Basically everything is really relaxed, people are silly, and the mods seem cool, so you don't need to worry much. Just post away and get to know some of us.
For myself I also discovered that there is a fair amount of ESL people here, so I would have to be careful with some of my wordings to avoid misunderstandings with my sense of humour. :)

Alright, knowing this, it might be a little easier for me. Thank you for your insight Pyre :)

I think I just never explored that much, and then forgot about certain other parts of the forum. But its hard to keep track of what or who post what or where sometimes. i.e I can miss stuff and not realize it even exists unless someone is kind enough to summon me perhaps.
