I find the url of the site in a Italian Onepiece's forum
How'd you find Arlong Park?
-
-
I found the link in K-F forums, just randomly browsing topics.
-
I found it when I was looking for a episode list for one piece so that I wouldnt have to watch meaningless fillers.. And then tada..

But the fillers are short and semi-entertaining… except for the rainbow mist one... oh and the seahorse that steals your memories... those sucked...

Well thing is I got into the Apis arch and like after 5 episodes I just got tired of it, so I had to look into it lol..

But the apis arc is what, 5 episodes long or something… in fact, the fillers in One Piece are never longer than 10 episodes... the G-8 Steel Fortress arc is really good... quite possibly the best filler I've ever seen in an animu...
-
I did watch the G8 just because its was the first time I saw ace and of course had to watch it becasue he was in it lol..
-
As a side note, I haven't been to every One Piece forum, but I find that this place as the largest number of intelligent discussions compared to other places I've been.
Looking for other forums when I found this thread, and this post. Wow how things must've changed…
Probably when i first got into one piece, looked it up and ended up in the general one piece section. it was when somebody forgot who made up a one piece im funny joke thread with chuck norris references, which ironically led me to my knowledge of chuck norris.
It took me a week to realize there where other places other than the general one piece section and went to the one piece manga section during franky vs fukurou, where i found out that there is the actual arlong park site. -
I found out about this forum through a friend(who isn't very smart)because he was bragging about how he started posting on here like a noob….
Since I like forums because I like meeting new people, I figured hey, why not join this one too and talk to people who enjoy One Piece.
-
Over a year ago, a friend of mine linked me and here I am.
-
kalei linked me to a retarded thread that was located here, and well, time makes fools of us all
-
(i hope this hasn't been made yet. if it has feel free to delete/lock.)
okay! so the title is self-explanatory. talk about how you found out about these forums, what made you join, etc. hopefully we'll find some interesting stories!
i found out about this place when OneManga closed down its manga-reader. Out of boredom, and hoping to find manga links, i started exploring its forums. someone posted an amazing picture (can't remember which) from one of the AP tournament's opening posts, and mentioned the tournament and how awesome it always is (i'm quoting). out of curiosity i googled this site and started looking through the 09 tournament posts. before i knew it i'd made an account and so here i am
for better or for worse. -
Was searching for information in Google
Found the main site.
Figured out it had forums.
Registered. -
When Vegapunk started to die in late 08 I made the move.
-
Ended up at this site by mistake from looking for Antarctic Press's forums during my super nerdy comic phase. Coincidentally found out Robby is on this forum as well.
-
I was active on german OP boards and lurked here from time to time by the end of 2005.
Then one german forum shut down and the other one..had problems:ninja:
So i thought why not registering here and some members to that time seemed to be rly worth discussing OP even when my english never was good. -
I found this by notice of the OP wikia and decided to check it out.
When i arived here i saw that the people arent all a bunch of idiots who love a good discussion without completely trolling everything and saw some things that really made me laugh. -
Round about 05ish I got linked here from the KF forums.
I'd already read the viz released volumes & seen the anime. I liked the people here(a lot of whom sadly no longer post), so I stayed.
-
I just needed a One Piece forum to go to so this one came up first when I googled One Piece forums
-
I had been lurking around for a year at that point, although I don't remember how I first ended up here at all….
I decided that I wanted to join in on the fun and because there weren't as much idiots here as there were elsewhere and so I joined right after graduating from high school.
I had way too much time on my hands back then... -
I found this place through a wiki link, and lurked for a few months (story-wise this was around the time the fights on Thriller Bark began), I eventually caught up with the anime and started reading the manga at the chapter where Oars was defeated, and joined not long afterward.
-
Someone over at VP linked me to the OOC thread. I just had the register. xD
As for the old thread: http://apforums.net/showthread.php?t=1636&highlight=join+arlong+park
I belive there's more. Because I think I've posted in one before and this thread died before I joined. -
I found this place through a link on a Finnish internet community where I discussed the latest OP chapters. It led me to the spoiler area and even though I didn't register right away, eventually I ventured into other parts of the forum and wanted to take part in different discussions.
The first and foremost reason back then was getting to read spoilers, though.
-
Searching for the lastest chapters and spoilers. I don't remember how i ended up here. I can only remember that i used to read the chapters scanlated by null.
I remember waiting for spoilers on eastblue.net a french community where they often credited BF for the spoilers. That was the trigger… i think. -
started getting into one piece around the time cp9 fights were ending and was googling "one piece" since it had become my new obsession. Found apforums and began lurking a little bit. The speed of new information as well as active participation and lively discussion encouraged me to stay and now I visit WAY more times a day than I probably should. The site has also done horrible horrible things to my bank account thanks to the collectibles thread

same here, i love how there's always an active conversation going on somewhere.

Spoiler and character tournament
-
Was on another forum that Cosmic Debris was on. She always talked about AP, and I got banned on the other forum, and decided to make the move here. I think it was around the time Enies Lobby was wrapping up in the manga.
-
I was searching for a One Piece forum that didn't suck as much as some of the ones I was previously on.
-
I joined AP because I was looking for a forum that had intelligent participants. I use to roll with mangafox but with the exception of a few participants and threads, the forum was a total waste. I heard Arlong Park was a place for serious discussions with informed individuals.
Looks like it's true.
I haven't had ample time to spend on this site but I have seen enough to know that it's a much better fit for me than MF's tactless, and tasteless day-to-day whatnot. The forums here are small yes, but there seems to be a greater array of topics that appeal to me personally.
-
I joined back in 2006 but my account wasn't activated until 2007 when I asked a mod or admin to activate it because I really wanted to post. I found the site while searching on Yahoo and I joined because I was becoming a One Piece fan.
-
came from MH due to spoilers. lurked for over 1 year but for some reason first account was never activated. Trony prompted me to make a new one. But what actually made stay was a help that i got in help section.
-
Arlong Park was the place where I found the link to download my first scanlated chapter. That was back in 2006.
After that I kept lurking the forums until summer of 2009 when I suddenly got a whim to register. Nothing more to it.
-
I joined Arlong Park forums because it's a One Piece fansite, and because there's a lot of cool members here too.
-
It was an accident. I thought it was facebook
-
the tournament looked so cool to me i joined, else i would not have joined thanks to my crappy english
-
I heard of this forum as the best OP forum before I actually got into the series, so went I caught up this was the first place I checked out. It had some awesome posters, great discussions, hilarious topics and an easy way to find scans and subs, so I stayed.
-
Because it's the best One Piece Forum out there. I had hoped it'd be a little more civil, but anyway for a loooong time I lurked, because at that time I wasn't really into posting on forums. But I liked to keep up with One Piece news and the reaction to them.
-
I don't remember. How did I end up here? Why did I join? I remember I joined bleachforums before here… and then I started reading OP, I think I was getting the latest chapters from a french site, searched for places to get it sooner and I don't know how, ended up here.
-
Back in 2007, I was searching for something-One-Piece-related-but-cannot-remember on Google and "Arlong Park Forums" came up as a search result. I had the urge to immediately click on the link, maybe because it had the words "Arlong Park" in it. So I browsed the site, thought it looked cool for an OP fansite, went to the forums and seemingly found the discussions interesting. I lurked for two years, and officially joined in mid-2009 because I've grown to love the place.
-
I used to go to the main site before it was redesigned quite a bit and decided one day to sign up. This was after the main site was redesigned however.
-
ONE PIECE SICKNESS!!
-
I was signing up for some high school exams and got distracted.
-
I just needed a One Piece forum to go to so this one came up first when I googled One Piece forums
Same here. That's probably how most people found and joined AP.
-
I think I was part of another One Piece forums, and I noticed this one. It was far more populated.
That's about it.
-
I was searching for spoilers at the time (it was in Thriller Bark), lurked until around chapter 500 and decided to finally join.
I remember before that I read some of the then-latest chapters on Youtube.
-
I think that I just wanted a one piece forum and found this one.
-
I was originally looking up discussions that revolved around why the One Piece Viz volumes were being released so slow. This was shortly after I bought Volume 16, which was the latest one out. I read through about 150 pages of discussions during the releases. Oddly enough there were alot of more sane posts during those times, with several complaints about the script being bad(Terek).
I joined around my birthday later the following year and made my first topic in the General Manga discussion… or I think it was. I dunno. I forgot about the topic and didn't return until a month later. That was when I realized I could get spoilers here. From there I posted and somehow managed to fit in. e1n was here too. He talked about this alot on DA.
I use to rip on complainers at first. I mean, complaints about certian things were fair but most of things were just outright complaining for the sake of complaining. Then I realized this was Arlong Park. A crazy forum with crazy people I somehow grew fond of. There's still annoying posters that complain for the sake of complaining, but I'm a bit less baited into getting mad these days.
-
i was looking for a one piece forum, being a member of yerf at the time and being in that mindset where forums were still fun and i was actually excited about what my avy and sig looked like
i joined animesuki and kaizoku-fansubs before joining here, and i didn't intend to stay, i just joined to post a post in the 4kids thread
LOOK AT ME NOW
-
I dunno, lol.
