I just thought it'd be nice to keep track of who's managed to find this place. Or I guess if you've never been to the MSPA Forums but wanted to join anyway that's cool too??
Anyway I'm Sporkaganza. My avatar on the forums is a picture of Asuka in a box. Very important. Here it's not because I've had it for like 2 years or something anyway and should probably change it soon.

I am Cookie Fonster.
I'm a dude who has no social life and thus does weird bullshit with my time like crazy big pointless projects.
I also like Homestuck, surprisingly enough.

Years in the present, an EMINENT JESTER has finally caught up with Homestuck and is looking for THEORIES, FAN WORKS, and GENERAL CAMARADERIE with which to spite the NEFARIOUS AUTHOR OF HOMESTUCK, who is rumored to have several VILE TRICKS up his sleeves in store for the next TEN DAYS. Having once LIVEBLOGGED Homestuck up to the start of Act 6, Evil Jazz has now moved on to enjoying things such as GRATUITOUS CHARACTER SUFFERING, and even DEATH; writing NEEDLESSLY COMPLICATED SPECULATIVE FANFICTION involving new titles and roles and character arcs for most, if not all, of the characters; and REWATCHING THE INTERMISSION over and over again to get his DAILY DOSE of the MIDNIGHT CREW, with which he is DANGEROUSLY OBSESSED. He was not, in fact, a member of the old forums, by virtue of NOT BEING CAUGHT UP until just a bit before APRIL FIRST. As such, he is VORACIOUSLY CONSUMING CONTEMPORARY THEORIES so as not to be FRUSTRATINGLY DUMB when stuff starts rolling. He likes to play the PIANO in his spare time, which is actually a KEYBOARD, having several DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS installed. He enjoys playing DISSENSION with the SOPRANO SAXOPHONE and thinking about Jade possibly STRIFING WITH JAKE to his remix. But that would NEVER happen. No more than VRISKASTUCK, where EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE is, in fact, VRISKA SERKET.
Except in my DREAMS.

I am Loading. I'm actually away on vacation so I won't have MUCH time to spend here, but I can probably find a few minutes here and there to check up on things (and of course several hours to watch EOA6 at least 413 times). Anyway, wasn't sure where the best place was for me to explain my temporary and discontinuous week-long hiatus from this really neat community, but here seemed like a good place to do so.
EDIT: Unfortunately/Fortunately I can't change my icon pic on my mobile. So when my icon "stops loading" (or starts "loading", either is accurate), you'll know I'm back. I trust all of you to spend every moment weeping at Homestuck ending in my absence until then.

Decided to bite the bullet and make an account just to chat with familiar faces. Incase you don't remember me because I lost my avatar (which was actually HOSTED on the now flaming forums), maybe my signature can stir some memories?

Hello everyone! You can call me Cap. I've actually been lurking around the Homestuck chat spaces (forums, Reddit, chat rooms) since I started reading back in 2010. I have a small forum account with only a couple posts on the MSPAforums but was saddened to see them down! Anyway, I guess it's time for me here at the end of days to say hello to the people I've been watching and reading for years. That wasn't creepy right?

I made posts on a forum that is now dying. COINCIDENCE?

Hi! I'm Jordan, or DJay, or what-have-you. I've been reading Homestuck since 2012, and while originally I hated it and was only reading it because people insisted I did, I grew to consider it literally a masterpiece without flaw, symbolic and dense in many of the same ways as Joyce's later books. I also have a mental list of parallels between Homestuck and Finnegans Wake, but nobody wants to hear about that.
I was not a part of the actual MSPA Forum, though I've been lurking on it for a while now. I consider a lot of you guys to be very cool and out of my league as a conversationalist.

Hey everybody! I'm memento vivere (it means "remember to live") aka MV, memviv, mem, or Tripp if you're so inclined. I've been reading Homestuck since 2011 or so. I'm a mod on the MSPA Forums (no, we don't really know what's going on with them) and have otherwise been around various Homestuck chatrooms and whatnot. My tumblr is here, and I also have a webcomic called True Colors! Nice to see/meet/re-meet you all  |

I'm Blaperile, or Blap if you prefer that, AKA the guy who decided to create these forums.  I've been a serial reader of MSPA since just before Jade was about to fight the Uranium Imp. A little while later I joined the MSPA Forums and I've always been around since (username = Blaperile). Some time after that I also started a Tumblr which I regularly use. Other than that I've got a Pesterchum account but I haven't used it in years. I'm also occasionally present in 3 Homestuck Skype groups. |

I went with "researcherWisemon" here 'cause that was what I had on the MSPA forums (Also my Skype/Pesterchum tag if anyone wants that sort of thing), but I usually go by Calum Traveler these days. (And FYI, I've gone by "Cal" sine 2007, well before Homestuck was even a thing.  ) I've been reading Homestuck since around the start of Act 5 Act 2, and first discovered it by way of people having pictures from those recent Upd8s in their signatures on another forum. I had no clue what I was getting into when I googled those infamous words "MSPaint Adventures" but I haven't regretted it one bit since. Honestly, I'm just glad to have a forum to read through during these final days. ^u^ |

I have just delurked a few minutes ago. You may want to call me Ruben. A big hello to all! I started with MSPA during the Gigapause, the result of following a TVTropes link. I have read Homestuck a few times. I also follow a few of the comics on MSPFAnventures. I had been reading the forums on and off for quite a while, often looking for insights about the Potato. Otherwise, not much Homestuck fandom activity until now: just recommending it to friends (with little success, as expected), buying some merchandise, and playing Undertale. I like the username Headwind that I have just created: the name and the avatar are of course a reference to the Mindblown ship. Jets and winds flowing in space are also related to my job. I have a Facebook account, convenient for messaging. English is not my native language, and that surely will show: feel free to help if you wish, I do not mind. It is however the language that I use the most, with Spanish, Fortran, and C++ in distant second places. |

Hey everyone! The name's TheRationalDove (though most referr to me as Dove or TRD, whichever works for you.) I have been reading Homestuck since the Summer Pause of 2012 (after Caliborn: Enter) Openbound was the first update I ever experienced first-han and what a treat that was. I only joined the forums recently (Summer 2015, so not even a year ago), when I realized very few people on Tumblr were really talking about HS anymore, hence my venture to the forums. I use this username for pretty much anything, so if you see "TheRationalDove" on any site, it is most likely me. (I guess it could techinically be an imposter, but most likely not.) I also run some fan adventures on the old MSPA forums: ZemdeiaQuest is the one I have the most readership for.) Very upset I can't continue to update those.

In case you would like for me to set up a Forum Adventures board on these forums so that you could continue your adventure, just give me call! I'd gladly set it up in case anyone would like it. |

That would actually be pretty great. But, I would need to reproduce the whole story and I don't have any archives to reintroduce for that. Kinda upsetting to think about now....Like, all of the pictures are on my computer. The text, however, is not.

Shadow of the Lotus. Also often called Lotus. Used to be very, very active until I stopped posting. I... used to be known for making cross-stitches and doing insane detailed-oriented tasks? Whether it was organizing a directory of all homestuck fanfictions, analyzing the word count of pester conversations acts 1 - 4, or my shipping essay?

One only discovers the importance of backups upon losing data. It's a natural law.
(But, really... never trust something that is online now to be online forever. If you care even slightly about something you wrote on a website, keep a copy of it. One day even mspaintadventures.com will disappear, and Homestuck will be no more, unless someone grabbed a copy of it.)

Hello. Longtime forum lurker, longtime reader, current as of 6/4/11. I didn't plan on ever making an account, but I find I can't let the end of Homestuck come and go without having been a part of it. I'm pleased to be here with you all.

At least Andrew's planning on creating an offline version of Homestuck and delivering it with Hiveswap. |

Well okay, technically he doesn't say "offline version" but he does say "digital copy" and I think it would be kind of silly if it isn't offline. It was the $2,500,000 goal of the Kickstarter, which it reached thanks to PayPal. |
