Well, I've already been here for a little bit, but, I might as well come in and formally introduce myself.
My real name is not Mark Skarr, but more people in this world know me by that name than by my real name, so I just stick with it. I'm actually trained to respond to my real name, "Mark," "Admiral" and "Retard" but that last one is what my family calls me.
I'm a rather insane individual. The only fora I actually participate in are these and the Steve Jackson Games forums, where I'm the Forum Pervert. I was in City of Heroes in early beta (actually downloaded the entire client through 56k modem!) but I haven't been on the boards since Statesman left (suddenly, I didn't need to complain anymore), where I was known as Rachel Cross. I live with a room mate, MonkeyFist (Heartbreaker in CoH; HandofBobb to most of the rest of the universe). I still have an active CoH account, but I play only once or twice a month, and usually on Champion.
I dabble in 3d rendering and have been doing it for about ten years now. It's fun, but both time consuming and infuriating.
I enjoy Anime and have a fairly large collection, but my tastes are fairly limited: deadly serious and over-the-top funny. I don't like day-in-the-life anime or serious-but-with-a-comic-side anime. NGE, Macross Frontier, GUNDAM 00 great, Full Metal PANIC not so much. Tenchi no. Excel Saga and FLCL great. Puni Puni Poemi, Megas XLR that's my level (my very first 3d render was of an Alex Gundam with a Dodge Viper for a head). Some things buck the trend, but not much.
I'm into RPGs (predominantly GURPS and Hero), obviously, as I was brought here from the SJGames forums by robkelk. I understand what it means to wake up somewhere and not know how you got there.
I'm not much into fanfic, mostly because of some horrible experiences involving the internet, a tub of margarine, some toilet-paper tubes, an angry ferret and a deck of playing cards. That's not to say that I have anything against fanfic, just not much positive exposure to it. So, with an empty mind . . . er, maybe I should say "cleansed palette," I enter your world.
