Long Time Lurker, First Time Poster

[bluehat]

Hello fellow Carbons! My name is Camille and I happen to be one of those sorts who has poked around online for a good while without ever interacting with the Legends community--a very difficult task considering the sheer volume of the fanbase.

Painful 'jokes' aside, I've been a legends devotee since I found Legends 2 in a bargain bin back in 2001. I remember religiously poking around the Legends Station back in the fifth grade during every recess hour but I never engaged in the forums back then because strangers are spooky as a kid, y'know? The passage of a decade or two makes the prospect of talking to adults online much less scary, so now that I'm poking around this site again, I thought I'd poke around the forums too. Nice to meet yall!

I can't say I'm much of a writer, though considering I grew up reading the fanfiction around here, It would be funny to try my hand at it. More than likely you'll catch me posting legends related sketches or doodles from time to time. The aesthetics of Legends' setting is beautiful and it's always nice to expand on good narrative settings with illustrations, hopefully I'll get some time to do a few down the line!

It's a little funny stepping out of a self-imposed isolation regarding this community. I was obsessed with Legends as a child and while I gradually calmed down I never grew out of the love I have for it; so it's going to be fun to see what I've missed from this series or the interpretations other people have!

Well, I've wrote enough for an intro, I hope I have time to stick around for a while, otherwise this would be rather silly!

Welcome to MMLS! I look forward to seeing your sketches; new art is always appreciated. Most of the MMLS user activity has moved to its Discord server, so if you want to interact with the people you lurked with before, I recommend heading over there. Once again, welcome!

Woah! I didn't even think about you old fogies having a discord server! Talk about modernizing!
Teasing of course, thank you for letting me know. I'll go ahead and pop by.

Welcome to MMLS! Our activity is largely contingent upon what Capcom has to offer us, but just like your love for this series kept on going, ours did as well. It's one of those timeless classics that not only held up, but wound up vindicated by history. The longer time marches on, the more of us seem to pop out of the woodwork, you know?

Honestly, this place probably peaked around 2006 or 2007 the first time, and 2010 for obvious reasons. If they did make a Legends 3, then I'd imagine we'd get a third wave even though most of the fanbase was between 6 and 12 when they found the series. I'm not sure exactly when you lurked, but if you were old enough to hunt through a bargain bin in 2001 then you probably weren't that much younger than most of us. I think the average birth year for an MMLSer is 1992, but it's been a while since I checked. The minimum age Proboards allows is 13, so for a while, this place was full of hyperactive teenagers forming a milita for fun. Now it's full of adults looking back at it and cringing hard. Yay!
