While the profile states that I joined this site in the year of 2007, I came here back in... 2002, perhaps?
I remember finding this place through Direct Connect and the related hubs. I started out with the nick of "Eliason" but eventually changed into this instead. I was so teased. I never should've gotten this nick ;) Anyway, after some years of constant occupation in the APN chats, I got into scanlation and suddenly became busy. I've always been a stalker around the chats, however, and can be seen in the dark corners, lurking about.
I started watching anime at a LAN because some people forced me to watch Love Hina after I stated that anime was just a bunch of squeeky Chinese people, and everything was pokemon crap. While they still are squeeky, they made me interested in animation and the language. So right now I mostly dedicate my life to this crap, translating, editing and talking about it (mostly manga these days, however).
Those days on the LAN, I watched a marathon of probably five longer series, filled my harddrives, and watched even more as soon as I got home. That I have seen a lot since then, too, is probably noticeable by my "watch-o-meter"
I'm a "nice guy" (with random foulness), interested in computer programming, designing and everything web.

Ooi! Your avatar is so kawaii! I enjoyed reading your profile too, but it may almost be trumped by the avatar :p I am also impressed with how little anime you have dropped. I haven't really "dropped" a single series, and where it has laid the path to me watching a couple crap series that is okay with me. I just find that many good anime don't pick up in the beginning and you have to give them time. If I had dropped too many series within the first several episodes I would have missed out on a whole score of divine titles.
Yo!
Random user tales me to the mot unexpected people ;)
Consider yourself befriended, we longtime hubbers and swedes need to stick together.
Hahaha I'm glad your friends set you straight and put you on the path to otaku! ^_^ (refering to your comment: "I stated that anime was just a bunch of squeeky Chinese people, and everything was pokemon crap")
