Hi there

[quoting_mungo]

I'm not good with introductions and am doing my best not to just panic and close the forum tab altogether out of anxiety, but here goes...

My name is Alex, online probably more well known as quoting_mungo, and I'm a nearly 30 year old girl (to be a "woman" or a "lady" you need to grow up, first, and I'm not sure I'm ready to do that ) from Sweden. I've adored wyrms pretty much since I first saw them, but I've never managed to be quick enough to snag one during any of the online sales and unfortunately overseas cons aren't really something I can do these days.

I'm pretty timid, and don't like approaching people, but watching HopefulMonster and Sciggles posting new wyrms from the last breeding season and such on Tumblr has kind of... tempted me out of hiding a little bit, at least. I honestly don't know how active I'll manage to be here, but I figured I'd at least try registering, and maybe that'll be what it takes for me to get lucky and get a wyrmy baby of my own.

My house is otherwise ruled by two cats: a ragdoll girl and a huge red brat of a mutt boy affectionately known as "the tiger". I'm just their humble human servant, as every cat owner should be.

Hello there :3

Be sure to lurk the forums! Everyone is very friendly. Pretty frequently, people post "new handler" sales when trying to sell their squirm. This typically allows newer members to expand their squirm

As GT mentioned, everyone is really friendly. If you're interested in setting up a breeding for the Summer Breeding season, just ask if someone would be willing to let you use their wyrms I have quite a few and I'm more than happy to share if people ask politely.

You can also try the Pick-Up thread in the Trading Forum. Some handlers offer to pick-up wyrms for people who can't attend cons for various reasons

[quoting_mungo]

Yes, Scigs, you're a terrible influence and you should feel bad! ;D

Thank you very much for the nice welcomes! I'm still having "OMG NEW PLACE I'M GOING TO DO SOMETHING WRONG" jitters turning my stomach into a squirm of worry-worms, but that'll pass with time. Just par for the course with my dumb social anxiety.

I'm headed out today to see if I can find one of those pretty glassed-in decorative lanterns that might be suitable to make a wyrmy home in, to protect my new little buddy to-come from my larger furry buddies, who like to steal anything small enough to move around. I'm so stupidly excited to have him!

Welcome, and 'gratz on your first wyrm! ^^

[ShadraAvro]

Welcome to the game <3 we're lad to have you. I hope you have lots of fun and as for the social anxiety, I promise all of us are really friendly. Our handlers know a lot of stuff too so if you're ever confused, drop by the chat.

Hello how are u

[quoting_mungo]

I just wanted to say thanks to the rest of you who stopped by to tell me welcome. I know I've not been super talkative here, but from what I've seen of everyone you're all a bunch of lovely supportive people and it's great to see a community so capable of being excited for each other.

Thanks for being awesome, guys!
