I'm a new member, but here it goes. I'm not technology savvy though.
This is when I went to camp earlier this month. I'm the one in the braids.

gryphon: of COURSE i'm trying to unsurp your throne! what else can i do when i'm not battling off holy pheonix's (not on this site) attempt to unsurp mine! and when you yourself have to be pushed to rp, (unsuccessfully usually) i'd say you'd been unsurped. :P Now i'm off to post more.

It really is interesting to see who your talking to. But I was just wondering if there are any more African Americans on this site. I'm not trying to be racists, all my closes friends are Asian, Hispanic, and White. I was just curious.

Not racist at all. I happen to be Bangali--that's near India, so I look Indian. We also have Asians, Caucasians, and probably a lot of other races I'm not covering right now. :P Yes, we do have black people on this site; I don't think I'm at the liberty to say who, but try our chatroom and ask for some photos. Don't worry, I don't think anyone would be weirded out that you might ask that--it's a pretty common request. And look at this topic carefully, too; it had a lot of surprises for me, and it's pretty enlightening. Hope that helped, and welcome to the site, Shanae.

Thanxs for the welcome peri.
I'm glad i don't seem racist.It is just that it is looked down upon in the African American race to read. I was hoping to meet a few token blacks. But, like i said all my closets friends are of other races.

Just for the record, wen, I never thought you were a girl. And that is an awesome picture. Cool backround, and the look on your face is killer, as is the cut. XD I love it.

I love it too wen. Nice picture.

Lilith thanks for replying to the topics I started.

[Lilith]

don't mention it spyells! you start interesting topics

no one can complain about gender confusion until someone mistakes you for the other gender to your face.... happened to me twice... both time, the person was a teacher.... first time it was open house and i went ot go meet my teachers and this one teacher saw my dad first because he was infront of me, and he's like "Hi, I'm Punkti's Dad." and my teacher replied, "It's a pleasure to meet you. Where is he?" i stepped up and replied, "She is right here." i never saw a pale caucasian female turn that shade of red, not even sunburned... she was redder than a tomato... the second time it was a substitute, so i let it slide....

no racistness at all...i'm not that certain myself, cause i never really think about it...Even when i'm writing, all the characters are white, simply cause i never thought to put in an african american one. *shrugs* i suppose i'll put in something about how when the spell to find the protecters were put in, there were no african american's in the island, so the componants necesary to find them are missing or...*gets lost in writing land and comes out long enough to hit post now*

[spyells]

Lilith that is hilarious. I never really have problems with gender confusion, but my mom looks really young so people think that we're sisters. I just love seeing the shocked look on my teachers and friends faces when they realize that they are talking to my mom and not my sister.

Young reader thanks for considering adding an African American to your story. African Americans are viewed in society as a bad race. On the news all they show are us stealing, hurting, and killing one another. And, if an African American is a reader such as myself, sometimes it is looked upon as a negative with certain members of my race.
