I don't know exactly when it was that all of this started, but the new site for our small group was made in late May, 2013, so I was 15.
May 30, 2013 to be exact, AWA.

Though fusemon itself was made May 30, 2011.

I started out actually on a shoutbox that gave me the origin of my username about... 6 years ago, but I don't really consider that a forum for obvious reasons. The shoutbox became a really toxic environment so I kind of went dormant on the internet for a while and then eighth grade rolled around. I started hitting some really hard times so I retreated to the Internet again and joined Pokefarm. I joined the forums there and quickly learned how to short hand roleplay. That's actually where Sloane Jackson got her debut, as a Gardevoir Gijinka. Then I transferred over to Fusemon on the day it opened. I was it's second official user, and I joined the forums hoping for a community much like Pokefarm's. What I got was even better, a group of life long friends. Fusemon lasted two years before it was supposed to shut down, but then it magically got renewed. Nevertheless, our little group moved onto our own private site and we were more active there than on Fusemon for *shivers* reasons. Fusemon officially shut down on May 30, 2014. From there I didn't really branch out again until I decided to join here.
