I once purposely looked for Bokumono fansites and forums that I wasn’t already a part of, or weren’t totally dead. I failed. Then I found this place on accident. Not very lively here though, huh?
Anyway, I’m Robinstar, and it’s fine if you want to shorten it to Robin. You may have already seen me on Fogu, Gamefaqs, or Neoseeker, since I frequent those the most. I’ve played the majority of the Bokumono games, all Rune Factory games so far, and all but one of the River King games that were released in NA. I’ve been playing since I was pretty young. I’ve enoyed them all so far, and I love when I can still learn something new about them. I know a lot about the few games I haven’t played as well because my thirst for knowledge is unstoppable.
If you’re confused by “Bokumono”, it’s short for Bokujō Monogatari, the Japanese name for the series. It’s easier than trying to say/type, “Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons, but not the newer Natsume ‘Harvest Moon’ series.” And after reading that, you might’ve noticed I’m not a big fan of the Natsume series. I gave it a shot though. Let’s not fight about it. It’s nothing personal. We can still get along if you like something I don’t like, or the other way around.
Feel free to ask questions, introduce yourself to me, or strike up a conversation in some way. I’d like to get to know the people that are still around here. It’d give me more of a reason to stick around.

Welcome Robinstar! Butterscotch ( she is the Administrator ) and I ( Borderwolf ( the Global Moderator ) try to pop in here as see if any other members show up. But it seems only two members do that. I guess that real life has caused the other members to be too busy to come here. I would like to know how they are doing.
Now a little about me, as you most likely saw the recommended reading list. I wrote the story Promises. There is a slightly newer version of it over on fanfiction.net , as well as four other stories, which are also on this site as well as one that I feel is not good enough to edit and post over there. Why is that you ask? Because I had written it in haste for that contest we had at the time. About the 'latest' Harvest Moon game I'm playing is Harvest Moon: A New Beginning. I have not yet tried any of the Story of Seasons, so I would like some input from people who have played it. So if you do make a post about it, please post it in the right board on this site.

Hi! I'm here too. I tend to chill around this place but I'm lazy as hell about saying anything since no one seems to want to talk anymore. Real life does suck from time to time...I still play but I'm backlogged on newer HM games right now. I've got Story of Seasons and I'm going to give a go again, but otherwise I play a whole lot of Stardew Valley at this point. I've also tried Skytree Village and have kind of liked it.

Wow, two people feels like a lot after all this silence. Thank you both for responding!
I’ve been reading through Harvest Moon: General, starting from the oldest stuff. It’s been pretty entertaining. I noticed the fanfictions and made a mental note to check those out too. I think eventually I will post about the newer games.

I pop in every now and then just to see if there are any new posts. I haven't bought a new HM game in years (the last one was the original DS, and the most recent one I've played is Sunshine Islands), so I don't have much to talk about. I did just get Stardew Valley this month, though, and have been playing that quite a bit.

I also drop by every once in a while. I used to write fanfiction here, now I just post them on my website these days. I miss the old days when we used to talk about Harvest Moon everyday. I still play Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons to this day. Already finished Pioneers of Olive and One World.

Hey yo.
Used to be a member waaaaaay back in the day, like 2004 or something. Went by some variation of 'Luigicrowd' I think, but can't remember exactly so can't find it in the member list. Interesting how this place still exists, even if it essentially died quite a few years ago.
Edit: looks like it was early 2005, as I found the account.
