I need to change my avatar. I've had this one for well over two months.

I'm gonna shoot myself if I see any more Homestuck stuff on this forum.

(by the time you read this, I've probably shot myself about two thousand times)

Hint: Disable signatures and avatars. Unless you already have, then disregard this post.

I've been considering changing my theme for a while, but then it takes effort. That and I have to think about what stuff can go into the signature and make sure the avatar fits. I could go back to the old tankian avi/sig just for the lulz /splitting hairs

I've been meaning to complete the Tailgate theme, but it's Boob Week, and I don't want to back out.

Avatars are difficult.

@fabfab; did you just now change your avatar again? you could have a different Pokemon sprite each day till you reach the last Pokemon :p

Yes, way, way too often :p I'll probably go back to Kyle Hyde if I can't find anything xD

I feel hurt. ;u; C'mon DJ, you gotta love Homestuck~

I change my theme all the time. As soon as I watch, read, play, or even see something I'll usually change my theme to it. I'll probably change my theme when I can change my username next.

In case you guys didn't know, I just got back from London. Wow. I envy anyone who lives there, really.

I dunno if I'll ever theme a Homestuck character or anything. Im pretty attached to Pokemon themes and am not really that into Homestuck, I have to read more of it as Im not very far in.

Welcome back, Moll :)
Thanks, it's good to be back! x3 How has everyone been?

I envy your resistance to the infection. I hardly ever theme Pokemon, actually. Usually it's an anime or game. ^^;; And oh, I see.

I read like the first couple frames of Homestuck, then I went and played Minecraft instead.

Im on Act 2, I probably havent gotten to the good part yet,Im slow at reading it.
I was slow at first too. I gave up on it for awhile, then went back to it and became obsessed. ^^;;

Well, guess it isn't for everyone! ^^

I refuse to read Homestuck. There are far too many characters.
It seems that way but it hasn't hard to remember everyone.

Meh, I don't get this. The way you're wording it implies that you're annoyed by the size of the Homestuck fanbase itself, while not taking into account who the fanbase consists of or the quality of Homestuck.

If a fanbase isn't largely comprised of annoying brats, and if the thing they're a fan of isn't crappy, I don't see a reason to hate on the fanbase or the thing they like. I hate Call of Duty because it has a largely annoying fanbase and I find Call of Duty to be a pretty shitty game. Another example are, um, "The Hardcore Oldschool Pokemon fans", specifically the group who hate all new Pokemon solely due to nostalgia. I have a reason to be annoyed with that group, though I don't hate oldschool Pokemon.

Granted I don't know much about the quality of the Homestuck fanbase, but it feels like a lot of people just hate it because it's really popular.

I'm not a fan of homestuck (that's not saying I hate it or anything), but it's just irritating seeing it everywhere on the forum. I don't hate it because it's popular, it just gets on my nerves that you can't seem to post anywhere without seeing people theming it or something. I had the same issue with MLP for much of last year on another forum, it was everywhere and it sort of aggravated me, even though I had no opinion of the series either way.

The Homestuck fan base on here isn't over bearing but I just don't care for it either way.

That's just kinda what happens when something is popular, it happened with My Little Pony, Legend of Korra, etc.

That's exactly right. There's a bad side of every fandom, Homestuck just has a rather /large/ bad part of the fanbase. Just because Homestuck is popular doesn't mean it's bad, right? *applauds*

I can't stand MLP, there's something very wrong with grown adults watching a children's show and obsessing over it to the extant that some bronies do.
