    So, before I start this off, I have to say that my English isn't perfect as it is my 3rd language and i'm still learning so if you see bad grammar, you can point it out but don't be a grammar nazi about it ok?

    Hello there, I'm ZaniZ (don't ask me how to pronounce it, I have no idea myself.) or Raymond (don't actually use my IRL name as I find it really weird for some reason.) I currently live in Canada.

    To be honest. in real life, i'm a pretty socially awkward person, I usually have nothing good to say and just focus on the task at hand. I always had an existential crisis if I didn't have anything good to say when I was in a conversation, if there was an awkward silence after I made a joke, I'd practically piss my shit. this is because when i'm in a conversation, I always choose the best possible thing to say, and if I do think that I said something bad, I would fall into the mindset of "Fuck! that is going to fuck my relationship with (INSERT PERSON NAME) so bad!" even though it did not change the opinion of the other party whatsoever, I keep telling myself that it really doesn't matter but I've never been successful so far in stopping myself from sweating a river when I think I screwed something up. that is why I do so well in school academically but horribly socially.

    this does not mean I have no friends irl though, I still have plenty of enough people in our social circle that I wouldn't be considered a social outcast, thats why I call myself normal-ish.

    but that changes when I get on the internet. because there is much less pressure when in a conversation with someone on the internet. I have an easier and better time getting along with people. and seeing people actually get along with me instead of just looking at me like white trash really lifts my spirits.

    The reason I am here in Harpoon today is because the servers that I played daily on, (Fortress of Gamers/FoG.) is shutting down by the end of the month, and so, when I found out that most of the people I knew and friends were moving to Harpoon, I decided to come here myself. I intend to stay in FoG until the very last second but I still needed to go somewhere when the inevitable happens.

    I wanted to try to become an admin when I was in FoG, as most of my friends were admins so I didn't want to fall behind. but that plan ultimately crumbled as the servers were shutting down, so I plan to try for admin here in Harpoon instead.

    now, I don't want to look like someone who wants to become an admin just because of the power I would get or some other abusive reason. I genuinely believe that rules needed to be followed and breakers of those rules need to be punished. In FoG, there was a rule that banned spawn-camping, too many times when there wasn't an admin online and spawn-campers ran rampant, ruining the experience of whoever was on the other team. and all I could really do was just watch, I don't like that. I want to actually be able to do something instead of just sitting there and letting people break the rules.

    I'll expand on my reasons of wanting to become an admin when the time comes. This is an introduction, not an application after all.

    I just realized how long this is getting so I'm going to have to turbo speed this.

    I'm asian. I have a shit sleeping schedule. I love spicy food. I have a big brother and a little sister. I have a little rabbit named stomper (she's fucking awesome.) I love drawing but I sure as shit ain't terrific at it. I like glitch music (alan walker, TheFatRat etc etc.) I really like saying "nerd" or "twat" I just don't know why. luck is my mortal enemy and It hates me and bunnies are fucking awesome, if you have a different opinion on that one. fite meh nerd.

    I think thats it, I may have forgotten a specific and important detail and be like "FUUUUUUUUUUCKKKK!" later but I think'll be ok for now. so see you guys later.




    also don't you dare pronounce or write my username as "sans." like some OTHER VERY SPECIFIC PEOPLE. yes, you know who you are and if you dare say my name like that again, I'm going to backhand yer ass or at worse, cancel my commission. >:^(


    Twat.
