Welcome to PXR! :D I'm so sorry you have to deal with people and their stupid politics and narrow minds. x__x I'm a bit ignorant so I'm not really aware of the two 'sides' but as long as you're a nice person, I don't care where you're from, what you look like, or any other detail that shouldn't affect ANYONE'S opinion! Like Neo said, this is a very friendly community and we've got people from all corners of the world on here. :]

I am into a bit of metal, but more the symphonic metal side (Epica is my favourite, and I enjoy Delain and used to listen to Within Temptation and Nightwish but have sort of out-listened to them XD). I need to find more bands! I'm a bit behind with my band searching. xDD

Anyway, good to have you here and I hope you find PXR to be a great place. :D We have a team based event starting in July called Pokemon Crossfire if you're interested; you participate in different things like drawing or writing and you work together with your team to earn points and come out on top! >:3 The sub-forum is at the very top of the whole forum if you are interested in having a look. :D
