Title: My Introduction
Post by: Aforjp on April 17, 2024, 02:06:15 am
Hey there!



I am Aforjp, a sooort of new FH player (I began playing around August of last year). Although I missed the opportunity to play the game around the time it was still new and very popular (which seems to have been at least 10 years ago), I eventually decided to finally give it a try and begin a new journey. So far, I have felt surprised and captivated by the game's charm, by its maps, soundtrack, visuals (especially the beautiful skies and day and night cycles!), and how they must have inspired many of you and other players to create roleplays. art, videos, and other creations. Even if you could say I am "late to the party", I still am interested in hearing your experiences and stories from FH, especially those that involve those creations that I was talking about, and hey, maybe even being able to build some that I can treasure for the rest of my life!



Despite there not being that many active players (especially when compared with the numbers I've heard and seen others mentioned), I am glad and grateful towards those who I have met in game, and who have been warm and welcoming towards me! They have helped me to build a positive image of the game and the community, especially when it comes to being open towards receiving new comers like me. If this post caught your attention, and or if you ever get to see me in game, feel free to say hi to me, or even begin a conversation! I am open towards being talked to, making friendships, and hearing what others have to say!



As a last comment, I would like to say that one of my favorite (if not my most favorite) things that I enjoy doing in game is taking screenshots! Sadly, I cannot attach any screenshots through this post, due to an error occurring. Nonetheless, if anyone would like to see any of them, I am open to suggestions on alternatives for me to share them.



Anyways, thank you for reading my introduction, and see you around!

Yo, my little fella.

Hope you have a wonderful time here and enjoy your stay for as long as you decide to stick around. Uhhh, you did miss the opportunity to play the game around the time it was super duper popular. 10 years ago... that sounds frightening. I'm a fh fossil , im still here since 2012 (i think) i dont play the game but uhm, i still log on my account to check if the game's still running. Bad habits i guess.
Im glad new people join even if the server keeps on going with 8-9 ppl on. When i was playing there used to be 800+ people online. High time. I've so many memories.
Hope everyone's okay. Have fun!

Hey, thank you so much for your best wishes! That's right man, to think about how long it has been since I had that intend, how many things have happened, how many have changed...yeah. Wow, you really have been around for quite some time! I don't think that still wanting to check if the game is still around is a bad habit on its own, though to be fair I lack context in regards to your case. How many people?! Dude...those numbers are completely insane! I honestly had never imagined there could have been so many people online at the same time! Although nowadays the active player count is as low as you accurately pointed out, I believe there is still potential to have them increase a biiiiiit more, or at least I want to believe so. Once again, I lack context lol. I also really appreciate you taking your time to reach out to a new player like me, for it adds to the feeling of a warm welcoming. If you would like to share any of your memories with me, feel free to do so!

P.S.: I felt very lost at first, when I had no idea what you had to do in order to reply to someone's comment lol. I'm extremely new to this forum format, and well...you could say to forums in general as well.

That's a decent amount of years already! One cannot really think as 2018 as "not too long ago" lol.

welcome to the fh community! enjoy your time 'round here.
Thank you! I really look forward towards it! Also, I noticed that your message includes an image (probably part of what is called a "signature"), but for some reason I can't see what it is, and now I am kinda curious to know what it is lol.

Welcome to FeralHeart! As someone that's been a member of this wonderful community since 2011, I can tell you that it is a great experience. Although it is not as active as it used to be, I have found people that I would consider to be lifelong friends from this silly little game. May you find amazing friends as well!

Hey and welcome !!
It's really nice to know that even someone who's just now joining FH can still see the charm of the game & community.

The forums are a bit of a learning curve and I unfortunately stayed away from the forums for years despite being a user since 2011.
But turns out the forums are great haha, you just have to get the hang of it.

There are tutorials for pretty much everything on the forums, including coding, map making, and presets making.
Additionally, you can find BBCoding tutorials elsewhere if you google it.

I'll give you a quick tutorial on how to add images/screenshots to the forums.
You'll first want to upload the photo to an image hosting service. People have used Photobucket and Flickr in the past. But I recommend using Imgur.

Once you upload an image to Imgur, you'll want to click "Get share links"

(https://i.imgur.com/hv0wUMq.png)

Then you'll want to copy where it says "BBCode (Forums)"

(https://i.imgur.com/UtMkzGQ.png)

Then on the forums you're gonna want to paste that link into a code you'll type out. Here's what it should look like:

(https://i.imgur.com/SkpI5VM.png)


Where it says img width you can just mess around with the size, it does not have to be 650. The bigger the number, the bigger the image will appear.


I'll leave a few other links to some fun and helpful tutorials:

Hey! Thanks!
It is hard to ignore honestly, for it is fill with passion!

Whoa, yet another person who began playing such a long time ago! Yeah, this forum format is definitely not what is
common nowadays, and it can feel odd to navigate and use them. It's nice knowing that I am not really alone when
comes to me not having a master level when it comes to the forums haha.

Hey, that is actually cool! Even if I prefer a more directly guided way of learning, I feel like it's worth giving them a try,
and hey, it really sounds like there's many of them, and I'm pretty sure they are high quality! I wasn't expecting there to
be coding tutorials tbh, though I am more interested in those involving maps.
Goodness, this is the first time I hear about BBCoding ever, so I'll be sure to keep in mind that term.

Dude, the image tutorial is super useful! Kudos to you for going an extra thousand miles and providing a clear step by step
guide with images! It really shows how much effort you put into willing to help me, which I really appreciate!
I will also be sure to check out the tutorials you have linked! I will definitely be returning to this comment more than once!

Oh it will definitely help! Once again, thank you so much for taking your time to provide me with all this in info, and in a
very organized and clear way! Now I will be able to make a post featuring some of my screenshots!
