Welcome - introduce yourself!

Welcome :)
Hi all! New guy here, forty-something IT professional from the Midwest US. Been gaming since I was in grade school, and a fan of sci-fi and fantasy for even longer than that. Long-time geek, and fan of all things rational when it comes to discussion of fandoms and identifying with reality in general. Been aware of the forum for a while, but I've been lurking, but a message to my alt account over on Reddit pushed me into signing up for an account. Looking forward to interacting with other fans like myself!
Welcome to everybody! It’s great to have you with us :)

Welcome to JoyFreak

Hello new member. It's great to have you be part of our community! JoyFreak is an independent gaming forum on the internet (with discussions about everything else as well) so wondering where to start is not uncommon! This thread is a perfect place to break the ice; we would love to know you, your interests and what brought you here. Feel free to introduce yourself or welcome others. There's no harm in jumping straight into other threads as well, but if you feel like you need more guidance, you can find a range of helpful information and resources below.

Before You Post

Many members want to look their best first; you can upload an avatar via your account details, and if you navigate to your profile page, you'll also find an option for uploading a cover picture! Having a memorable avatar and cover on the profile is a great way to stand out. For best results, cover uploads should be at least 600x1000 in size, and avatars at least 400x400.

If you want to learn about the rules and standards of our community, the General Guide is probably your best resource. We strongly recommend familiarising yourself with this document. New accounts less than 1 month old or with less than 100 posts can be subject to more strict moderation in order to keep the troublemakers off of the site.

Please note that new members who create their first post or thread will require moderation approval. This is to ensure the new member is not a troll, spammer or bot. Once the first post or thread has been approved, you should automatically start posting as normal without the need of approval.

JoyFreak is generally divided into two sections — Gaming Forum (Video Games) and General Forum (everything else). Detailed descriptions of each can be found on the desktop front page.

When first joining a thread, please make sure to search for any Threadmarks or Staff Posts above the posts.

You are encouraged to use the report system to alert moderators to something that may need their attention; the report button can be found at the bottom left of any post or message. It is the easiest and fastest way of getting to the staff team. You can report posts that break rules, or even report your own post if you need help with a change in the title of a thread or anything similar. Please do not abuse this system with rude or frivolous reports.

Please use the Report Bugs Thread in the Announcements forum for bug reports or any other technical queries.

If you are a professional with insights you think our community is interested in and you are interested in getting your identity confirmed, please check out our Verified Members program.

Individual staff may be able to answer minor questions when privately contacted. Our full Active Staff Roster is continuously maintained and updated.

Bottom Line

If you have read all of the above then you should have all the tools that you need to be a great member of our community and a welcome part of it. Whether you start in here or in a different thread, we look forward to your contributions!

Welcome to the forum Rally. I hope you have a great time here with us at JoyFreak :)
 
Hey guys!
I'm new to forum but I'm really crazy about video games. I mostly play competitive games like dota,csgo,poker etc. As well I like playing Fifa or COD. I'm so happy to be a part of your big community.
 
Yo, I'm "PaqMan" I've been playing games since I was a kid, I found this my googling "gaming forums" glad to be here.
 
I'm ShadowDurza. I like a lot of different games but my favorite would have to be free-movent 3rd person progression-based action games. 2nd would be 3D platformers, 3rd would be 3D hack-and-slash games, 4th Action RPGs, 5th would be turn-based RPGs, 6th would be 2D platformers. 7th would be 3D metroidvanias, 8th would be digital TTGs/CCGs, 9th would be 3D Sonic fan games and spiritual successors (at least until SEGA wises up and hires the team behind Sonic GT even as consultants), and 10th would be 2D Metroidvanias.

Beyond that, I like superpower-based Action, Adventure, and Battle Anime and Manga, cartoons, and music (but no specific genre or artist).

I am a huge Nintendo enthusiast even though I can't condone their business practices.

I'm really good at writing, especially script writing, and am currently working on a one-shot for a heavily Manga-inspired comic with an artist that I intend to publish in the hopes of going into a full-on serialization. On the side I'm writing for a small team of genius game developers.

As for what I want to do here, I like coming up with ideas for video games and writing basic design documents and figured this would be the best place to share them.
