Anytime I see an animorphs reference I am required to ask: were you a member of RAF (Richard's animorphs forum)?

I think you mean "are you still" a member of Raf?

But yeah. The poor forum is pretty much dead, but still exists. Too bad the audiobook attempts never made it there. Official ones now exist on audible, but the main series alone was 54 books and audible wants like $15 a piece. Sky high for books that were each pretty short. Who's going to pay $800 to listen to them all?

Holy shit! A RAFian in the wild! I was super active over there from like 2006-2012ish? Changed my screen name a few times, but mostly known as Broken. Any chance we knew each other?

Sorry, my man. I wasn't on there very often im afraid, so chances are slim.

Were you on reddit when KA Applegate did their AMA back in the day? That was an awesome thing to be around. Like 15 years ago, before reddit sucked.

I missed that. I was around for it, just wasn't online at the time of it. D:

I was so excited and Katherine was cool as hell. Just Google ama k.a applegate and it'll pop up so you can read it all.

Iirc she was on RAF a few times, and her husband posted occasionally as well. They were always very kind.

To this day, though, some of my best friends are people I met through that forum, including a guy I still talk to almost every day. Animorphs folk are good folk

That's awesome. Good friends are hard to come by.
