"A FANLISTING?"
What's a fanlisting? Well, the word is quite literal in its meaning: a fanlisting is, haha, a listing of fans! Basically, big-time nerds (like me) use our awesome web designing skills (unlike me) to create simple, but thoughtful sites dedicated to the things we're major fans of (in this case, the Xenomorph), as well as allowing other people to apply and be publically listed so that the rest of the vast world wide web can see that they're also a fan!
"SO WHAT'S A XENOMORPH?"
Well, if you're asking me
that, then you're probably not a fan, huh?
"WHY THE XENOMORPH? THEY'RE SO EVIL!"
They're not evil! They're just hostile organisms trying to survive in hostile environments. They're like ants and bees - they're protective of their queen, they bring in food for the hive, and they attack when theres a. I am
totally on the side with Ash when he says that it's a perfect organism, and I admire it as well. Everything about it is awesome! It's lifecycle, the acidic blood, the exoskeleton, the inner jaw - everything! Personally, I don't believe anyone has yet to develop a creature that tops this one. And if you haven't seen any of the four movies (or the two AVPs), then you have not lived! Even if you don't like gory movies, you can still watch the first AVP because it's only rated PG-13 and the only blood you see is alien blood.
"WHY THE NAME 'HOSTILITY'?"
If there is one thing that will smack you in the face immediately after watching the Xenomorphs in action, it's how extremely hostile and aggressive they are toward any threats (i.e. most humans, Yutja, etc.). I don't say "enemies" because I don't believe they consider humans "enemies"; they consider them 'threats' to theirs and their queen's survival. I don't say "anything and everything" either because they usually leave small animals alone and will use small children and some adults as hosts for more Xenomorphs. They're more intelligent than some give them credit for.
"SWEET! I WANNA JOIN! IS IT FREE?"
Absolutely! As free as the site that's hosting this listing. Only thing that's required is your first name (or realistic nickname) and your country, but to make sure you know everything before joining, I recommend that you
read the rules first!
"HEY! MY COUNTRY ISN'T LISTED IN THE DROPBOX!"
Because I don't know jack-squat about scripting and while I was given a code for the form, the dropbox listing was done manually. IF your country is not listed, don't freak out! Just pick a country (to satisfy the form's requirement), but MAKE SURE to put the name of your real country in the Comment Box (or simply e-mail it to me). On the next update, your country will be added to the form as well as you listed in the Fans section.
"HEY, I HAVE FANART/FANFICTION ABOUT THE XENOMORPH! CAN YOU LIST IT IN THE 'EXTRAS' SECTION?"
Heck yeah I will!
