Hey there. I'm Russet, and I'm new to the forum. I'm from Malaysia, and I speak English, Chinese and Malay (which sadly doesn't have a flag, apparently). I've been reading Minna's comics for several years, but have been avoiding the forum site up until now because registering to new sites is a bother sometimes, haha. But I stopped reading SSSS for a while last year, and recently I came back and caught up on all the new pages, and now I'm really into it and checking for new pages every day.  :)
I'd like to draw some fanart, but I'm terrible at digital art and my scanner is the devil himself, so. currently, can't contribute any art, sadly.

Hi, Russet.  Welcome to the Forum!  You may be our first member from Malaysia. 

I've posted a Malay flag request in the Improvements thread: https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=16.msg46604#msg46604  That'll help remind our hard-working Admin, Eich, to find and upload a Malaysian flag (to stand for the language, even though I know Malay is spoken in other countries too).

Meanwhile, sounds like you'll fit in just fine.  But if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask Eich, me, or any of the other admins or longtime members.  We do our best to make this forum a friendly and welcoming place.

Hi and welcome, Russet! I'm looking forward to when you are able to post some fanart. I take it you've seen the fanart thread?

In the meantime, here are the welcome cookies Solovei was talking about:  :)

Ooh, thanks for the cookies. :)
I'm looking forward to it too! I'll take a look at my scanner some time soon and see if I can get it sorted out. I have seen the fanart thread, yes, and there are a lot of great artists in this fandom, which is nice!

Also, thank you to Sunflower for sending in the request, the flag would definitely be a useful addition. And oh, is that so? I see a few dots in Malaysia on the SSSS fan map though, and I could always forcefully persuasively convince a few friends to check the comic out.

Welcome to the forum. Hopefully your scanner will change it's attitude sooner rather than later.

You may be our first member from Malaysia. 

Nope. Potatobunny.

Yes, hopefully it will! Maybe I could use a camera instead and just skip the entire scanning thing, but I doubt that'll be much better.
& also, wow, you guys keep pretty good track of the members here. How many users are there on this site, roughly? It's good to hear that I'm not the only Malaysian, haha.

Seven hundred and thirty one currently registered users. The number of regularly active users varies, maybe... fifty? Incidentally you are the 760th user to register. If you want the details I recommend checking out the stats section.

Hi, Russet! We have several threads for art here, both fanart and general art, and also one for self-inserts :) You can still draw even if you don't have a scanner! Many people post photos of their art, taken with a camera or a phone, without there being a problem. I'm not going to force you to share your art, but don't let your scanner hold you back ;)

Hi!
How is everybody?

I'm 22 and Danish. It seems there's a serious lack of Danish people here...

Alright, so I found aRTD via dA, back when it was only about halfway done, and I've been reading ever since. I never bothered with the comments section, or the forum though.

But! Recently I was persuaded into joining. I felt the need to wait till my exams were done first, and now that they are (as of yesterday), here I am!

A bit about me:
I'm a native Dane, I speak English (obviously), and I'm decent in French(one can always improve!).
I study Engineering in Biotechnology.
I love reading, drawing, painting, and writing, whenever I have the time, and conscience to procrastinate my homework (I'm very good at this).

I hope to get to know all of you soon!

Hello and welcome Lainer! (Are you the first Dane on the forum? You're one of them at least.)
You say you love to draw? Have you seen the fanart thread? Maybe you could stop by and join us sometime, eh? :D
Nevertheless, have some cookies and enjoy your stay!

Welcome! If I'm not mistaken you will sooner or later be granted cookies.
Never really noticed, but I guess you're right, there aren't many danes here. We have many creative forum threads here, so I hope I'll see some of your art soon! ;D

Yay! You're here :D Hello!

She is the one who got me adicted to SSSS and I decided to repay the favour with the forum.
She's a very good drawer and she's been helping me try to pronounce danish (which I am very bad at).
