In order to breathe some life into this place I figure we can try one of the basics. Maybe a few threads will get us noticed.

I was in college for interactive multimedia development and was very into web comics as an emerging media. I had been following about 20 of them and even had my own short lived attempt at one. One day during a class I noticed one of my classmates reading Problem Sleuth. The idea of having a forum driven story was certainly interesting, and the first time I’d seen that done.

I was still checking MSPA after Problem Sleuth had ended and Homestuck pretty much blew me away at the haunting piano refrain. Being a complete sucker for soundtracks, the idea of a webcomic having one just… well I’m here now 15 years or so later. I don’t think I’m the most die hard fan but I was probably deeper into it then I am proud of.

    Alright. I was a late comer. I got into the fandom after playing undertale. Well, I’ve actually finished it two days before chapter 1 of deltarune was released, so I’ve never really been in the Undertale fandom, but went straight to Deltarune.

    Anyway, I’ve found out about Toby’s involvement in homestuck, so naturally I’ve started reading it. I can’t put my finger on, when exactly, but it took me about a year to get through it, and I’ve finished it in March 2020.

    And I’ve to say that I’ve really liked it. I regret not getting into it earlier, but it’s still remarkable how active the fandom is after all this time.

    Myself, after 3 years, I’m still somewhat active. I’ve used to post quite a lot, especially on r/althomestuck. Nowadays, not so much, but that’s mostly because I don’t have as much spare time as I’ve used to.
