If you've been to Model Minority, you know who I am. I have no idea why I didn't sign onto this board sooner, but here I am, and it's always good to check out other quality Asian American movement sites.

A little background info on me: I'm 21 and a senior in college in Texas. I'm Chinese, and I got interested in the dynamics of Asian American issues three years ago when I stumbled upon Asianguy.com and lurked the forums there. I was intrigued by all the intelligent discussion and novel-length posts that decried interracial dating and racism, the majority of it led by seoulbrotherno1. Eventually Asianguy became a ghost town, sadly, and I usually spent my time on idiotic selloutish sites like bjunkyard.com where I got into huge fights with the sellouts there. Eventually about a year ago I headed to Model Minority and it's been my home site ever since.

I expect no less from this site. I already see Dac, ThreeKingdoms, and Ric on here, and also seoulbrotherno1 (I'm guessing you didn't find MM to your liking?) and BetheReds from Yellowworld, all of which make up the most intelligent and articulate Asian men that I've ever known.

So there you have it. I'm looking forward to the discussions and debates. Carry on!

Whassup Abct, welcome to the 44s, glad you're aboard.

Thanks for sharing a bit of your lfie with us; we look forward to what you have to contribute!

If you haven't already, please check out our Declarations of Intent (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=1) to learn about our vision and stance (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?t=536). Little Red Book (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=29)offers guidance for the type of posting we want to see here, and Integral Slanted (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=39) discusses the more complex aspects of Integral Theory and Practice, the principles of which we use to develop this site, and on which I conduct my life.

Finally, you now have access to Sleeper Cells (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=14), NC-17 (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=9), and Fight Club (http://www.thefighting44s.com/discussion/viewforum.php?f=28). The first lets you know if any 44s are getting together in your area; the latter two forums contain the most controversial and least reasonable discussions, so read them for fun but don't take them too seriously or think that they represent The Fighting 44s in any way, other than we like to kick up shit.

Thanks for joining, and have some fun!

Wow thanks!

There's more of us from YW here actually, but some of us are using different aliases.

The sig is from a rapper called "Copywrite," off of a CD called Loose Ends. I too thought it was brilliant when I first heard it.

Thanks again everyone. I was pleasantly surprised to see people were still welcoming me even though it's been more than a week since I registered. :)
