Well when I lurk around forums, I notice certain people that catch my interest. For example their opinions are often opinions which I agree with, or we seem to have common interests. Then I PM them and after a few PMs back and forth we share each other's MSN addresses, and then it just goes on from there o3o

Jinchuuriki:
oooo i see. thank you Teal :) thats very helpful too! i might try that out sometime

I've been checking out the intro/bio section of the forum and looking for people to appeal to me. Usually it's something a little more than just their interests that catch my eye. Like a belief of theirs or something they've had to go through. I used to keep to myself online but have been much more adamant about making friends because I've made so many throughout the years. Lasting friends. Not just the "Cool, you're on!" Sort. But the sort that are there through the milestones of your life to see you grow. You can find some of the most amazing people online. I look at it like this. What are the odds that someone in your town is going to have loads in common with you, and is easy for you to get along with? You might find a couple. But online, you find yourself surrounded by people who have things in common with you. Here's it's fursonas and animals, on Deviantart it's well... art. Etc. And having one thing in common often means having several things in common!

I met the love of my life online. Not trying to. Not on internet dating sites or anything. I just commented on the most beautiful pencil work I'd ever seen in my life and the next thing you know, we talk constantly for ages in one form or another (writing, phone calls, webcam, video games), visit, and now I'm living with him. I constantly forget how we met until something like this is brought up. x) I think it helps to have a strong sense of who you are as a person to make friends online, because you rely solely on the things you say. I'm sure there are a lot of things that make you interesting. Maybe all you need to do is talk about them. :D

One problem I can see on these forums might be that people don't check these as often as other forums, as it seems to be something people are just using during FH's downtime. There's also not as many people on here as other places on the web, obviously, but that doesn't mean you can't make some fantastic friends. :D

I write a lot. Geeez. Hope to see you in game!
