WalmartKitty Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 So, uh, hello all! I've just arrived, and I have no idea what I'm doing, I'm afraid ahah. I suppose I ought to introduce myself? Well! I amuse myself by going by the username WalmartKitty, but please feel free to call me Wally for short! I figured out about two years ago that I'm aroace, and so here we are. I found the AVEN community around that time as well, and it was a resource that helped me tremendously while trying to figure everything out. Although, as you can see, I only just now created an account. Heh, I've never had the best track record when it came to keeping up with these types of things. However, one thing that I've realized lately as I barreled through life, was that I've never been actually involved in the community. I don't know anybody else who identifies like I do, neither offline nor online. On a whim, I decided that I wanted to change that (I like to think I make my best decisions when I don't overthink it lol). So here I am. I hope that y'all don't mind my presence too much, because I'd hate for all this effort to type this to have gone to waste ;P Seriously though, I'm looking forward to hanging around and meeting all of you. So, I suppose I'll see y'all around! I'm off to get more comfortable with how the site functions! Link to post Share on other sites

Platonic Underdog Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 You're certainly not. I remember when I discovered the term ace aro and realised that it wasn't just one of my "quirks", I was just like "MY PEOPLE!" and have enjoyed learning more about it and talking to people like me 😊 Link to post Share on other sites

Lia Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hello there, and welcome to AVEN! As part of my welcome to you, I'd like to point out some important threads that might be helpful in your first few days here. The Terms of Service is here. We recommend you read it over, and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to send either myself or any other administrator or moderator (the "admod" team, as we're called) a message. Also, there's a handy forum called Site Info, which has some useful information including a thread outlining who moderates which forum. If you ever need something done in or have questions about a specific forum, please message the mod of that forum. And if you have problems with the site in general, or any single member, please message any admod. The following are also nifty links to take a look at: Welcome Lounge Mini Manual | Welcoming 101 | Quick Guide to the Forums | Asexuality FAQ's Again, welcome to AVEN and I hope your stay is everything you hoped!
