Hey all. If I had known that there was a forum for an informative, solid site like this with like-minded persons, I would have checked in sooner.
My name is Daniel (I go by Dan) and it's nice to be here. Since we all enjoy the gaming world (I'm a particular fan of action games and turn-based rpgs, but I can enjoy most of anything - boss fights are my favorite aspect of games so I apologize for all of the shilling I do for that content should I go about it), it wouldn't be much of a surprise to mention that, so some information about myself:
-I'm a former English Language Arts teacher and I currently work several jobs, usually as a freelance editor/writer or tutor for whomever finds usage. In other words, I'm a typewriting chimpanzee and it's my curse.
-I'm a big combat sports fan even if it's a different sort of niche. But, I'm also a little different with my fandom as I also write articles that break down techniques and skills of fighters/fights. I will also usually link fights on my twitter and offer some textual commentary on some events (usually UFC). I do have some unpaid professional published work on MMA fighters and their skillsets on my blog. My goal is to eventually get paid for it as a passion hobby. Most of my peers/friends on social media are also professional analysts, but have started up their own site that covers a wide array of content. If you ever want to know more about certain face-punching things or just want fighter/fight recommendations, feel free to ask.
-I can be a little authentic and blunt and tend to wear my heart on my sleeve a lot. Fortunately, I think I'm good at avoiding issues with it.
-Feel free to mock me to your heart's content. I honestly appreciate it when people give me a hard time. I tend to enjoy hyperbolic, absurdist humor with a tint of dryness to it.
If you bothered reading all of the drab features of my said person, all I can say is that I'm sorry, but I appreciate it and look forward to talking with you. I'd just have rather make a post like this before I randomly jump into a random thread, Would have seemed a tad bit rude.
Cheers all.
