@RyanNulph: You've already taken a huge step to meeting people at Fanime by joining the forums. Cuz it seems like the convention lasts all year long in these parts.

hes right ya kno?
uve taken a huge step and already created friendships even before meeting ppl
thats the key especially if ur new :)
sometimes all it takes is for ppl to kno that u have similar interests and boom! friendships!
keep it up!
hopefully those of us in this forum could all meet up at events or something :D
Yeap! I absolutely agree! I joined the forums about a month before Fanime and it hasn't even been a year yet and I'm already over 3000 posts! I actually did appear at the forums gathering but only very briefly. I've met a few people here in real life. AuroraDreamer, Maki, Somebody, and Jerry; well, I think everyone here that attended 2010 has met Jerry. I can't imagine anyone missing his bright yellow shirt, the balloons, and a huge backpack.

In my left brain, there's nothing right & in my right brain, there's nothing left.

Last year was my first year, and I staffed as a Rover. I got to see a lot of things and I got yanked out of my comfort zone and met some really cool people and then I got worked into the ground. heheh. It was really fun and people are as crazy as they sound (a handful are crazier), but yeah. You should check out what you can as an attendee. There's so much going on it's easy to miss something good. like the autograph session for FLOW.  Take your time to talk to people, mingle a little bit and if they interest you make plans to see them later. Oh, yeah. There will be plenty of time to mingle with others in the registration or pre-registration lines. XD
I hope to see you out there, Ryan!

Thank you very much!, And it sounds like fun after a few times of going to Volunteer and help them out & ugh i love flow <3 I hope to see you as well!

It's hard for me to make friends by just going to a convention, so I staff. (:< If you don't want to staff, you can also volunteer if you find yourself roaming around doing nothing with no one. >.>;
(I made friends with some awesome volunteers and now they're on staff. 8DDD YAAAYYY MEEEE )
That way, I'll see the same people for a weekend, and whether they like me or not, they have to interact with me. (:<<<<

Jaykay. Nah, they usually love me, and because of the proximity thing, it's easy to make friends. :D

What you can also do is join someone's room that you don't know and hope that you guys get along. That works too.

Wishing y'all the best. :D

^^ It helps if you are, ya know, kinda cute ;)


Join Rovers, you will get assimilated and you will be put to work. But you will come out of it with like a hundred new friends. No joke haha

Nub here What are rovers :)

They kinda look like this:



They go around taking soil samples from attendees and radio back results to the Fanime HQ.

Lol. Rovers are the guys make sure the con is going well for attendees. They can be spotted with their radios and bright fluorescent yellow armbands.

In my left brain, there's nothing right & in my right brain, there's nothing left.

This will also be my first time at fanime and I have only been to sac anime twice.  At the most recent sac anime you might have saw me.  I was dressed as Luffy.  Im going to fanime alone too so it will be nice to make some new friends.  my facebook is www.facebook.com/soulxhawk if anyone wants to add me.
