RAF Awards 2012: Nominations Now Open!

RAF Awards nominations are now open! You can find the category list for this year here! Nominations will be open until 11:59pm EST on Thursday, December 13th. PM a staff member with your nominations!

Remember: You cannot nominate yourself. You may vote for yourself when the time comes, but please do not nominate yourself. Also, you may nominate more than one person for each category, and you may leave categories blank if you don't know who to nominate.

Let's Get The Party Started!

That's right, RAFians. If you didn't catch the Announcement already, RAFparties are back online!


If you're new to the forum, RAFparties are a great way to integrate into the community. Make some connections and keep the conversation going with insane posting sprees on all boards. There's lots to do, as always - join an RP to enjoy fast paced action, catch up on all things Animorphs or make time fly by engaging in all sorts of games in the Bored Board.


Join us on the third weekend of every month, starting from September - let the insantiy commence!

Happy Independence Day!

Or as I like to call it "American Fireworks Day" or "Day We Totally Let Those Bloody Yanks Win Because We Knew One Day Their Country Would Make Perfect Fried Chicken." :P

Seriously though hope you all have a fun day celebrating the birth of your surprisingly young country. Eat some apple pie, wave the flag, drink some booze and blow stuff up (preferably not all at the same time) or whatever it is you guys do. Happy Independence Day all!

RAF's 9th Birthday!

Tomorrow May 23, 2012 will mark RAF's 9th birthday.

In celebration, we're having a RAF Party!

Don't know what a RAF Party is? Essentially, a RAF Party is a day when we gather on the forum and the RAF Chat, post and have a little fun. RAF parties are especially fun because all posts on the forum, including the Bored Board, count toward your post count.

Things should start at 12am EST.

Thank you to all you guys for keeping RAF going for the last nine years.  Hopefully we'll be around for many years to come!

RAF Survey!

Hey guys! So, we all love RAF and want it to be the best it can be. That is why Staff has compiled a survey for you guys to fill out. RAF is awesome, and we want to continue to find ways to make it even better. More than anything, though, we want to know what works for you guys, and what you guys want to see happen around the forum.

So, without further ado: RAF Survey 2012!

The survey is anononymous. You can answer as few or as many questions as you want to, or feel able to answer. There's also a spot to add comments or suggestions after each question if would like to leave them.

Thank you guys, in advance for taking the survey, and also in general for making RAF amazing.

Thanks to yunyun for her first donation!

What's this? Another donation from one of our beloved members? Indeed, just recently one of our youngest members, yunyun, decided it was time to donate to our Animorphs forum.

As you all should know by now, donors are elevated to the highest non-staff positions on RAF. Now, yunyun is able to modify her title, she can move and lock her own posts, and has the ability to store 10x more personal messages in her inbox/outbox. Additionally, she has been awarded 20 karma points for her donation.

Thanks yunyun!

Thanks to Unknown User for his 3rd donation!

Donations keep RAF online; I can't emphasise this fact more.
Thankfully, RAFians like Unknown User and over 50 others, contribute to the RAF Fund.

Today, I am writing this post because Unknown User has, for the 3rd time, donated to our awesome Animorphs community.

Since he has previously donated, his karma will see an increase of 20 points!

Thanks again, Unknown!
