HELLO WORLD ~ my name... doesn't matter. nope. i go by eevee on sites like this, although if you're clever enough, you'd know who i was in an instant. no joke. anyway, i play sasuke, but you probably already knew that. don't count on me creating a second character, though, i have my own site to run, which takes up all of my extra time. i like to think of myself as a graphic designer - no, i'm not out of college or anything - actually, i'm not even in college yet - but i'm quite fantastic at photoshop and other graphics programs as well as html and coding… or so i've been told. other than that, i'm your average teenage girl - yes, i'm a girl. somehow, people always seem to get the gender of my character and my own gender confused (it never helps that my name is quite boy-ish).
to be perfectly honest, the whole 'naruto high school' plot is totally overused, yet somehow, it's always totally fun and super cool to role play... though very unoriginal. not to say this site isn't totally awesome, it's merely a common plot-line... though i haven't seen a good naruto highs school role play for quite some time - it brings me back to the golden days of 'the original konoha high school' a site i was quite active on back in 2007/8... god i miss those days... i'm very eager to re-live them... if only a little. the naruto high school setting is one of my favorite role play genres.
what else... ? though i do play sasuke fairly regularly, naruto is my passion. i've played him more times than i can count on one (or both) hand... and now that i think about it, i don't think i've played any other naruto character... wow! um... anyway, i'm a senior in high school, but my wild crazy passion is playing pokemon games... if anyone else does, we should totally exchange friends codes <33 (i have heart gold - i had platinum, but there's a mouse that lives in my couch and walls that stole it, no lie)

Well, to quote TVTropes, 'Tropes are not good; tropes are not bad'. It may be an overused plotline, but it's what you do with it that matters, yeah? You can make something great out of a simple, common theme as long as you put creativity into the characters and details.
The summer of 2007 is when I got into the Highschool AU idea as well, with Elena and Sherrie, actually. I wouldn't be surprised if a whole series of sites with this theme sprang up right about then, coinciding with the introduction of the 2nd Shippuden closing... Our site was called simply 'School Days', though we went through several incarnations of the idea after that. Good times. It's cool to see some other people that have been in on it as long as we have.
Do you draw your own graphics/art as well? I remember looking at the most recent incarnation of your Konoha High School site and being impressed by the overall layout (I recognized your email address).
Not gonna lie, I have both Platinum and SoulSilver, but I'm a lazy ass and I haven't finished either one. I'll trade friend codes with you, though, once I figure out where they are (I'm a noob like that).

Oh hai~ You seem like a good Sasuke RP-er, so we should try and organise something. I play Gaara :'D
The summer of 2007 *becomes misty-eyed*, those were the days... I'm a bit of a Pokemon fail, oh well--I watched the anime when I was a youngin. THAT COUNTS.
Well, in any case, welcome!

the naruto high school theme has been copied many times - the times i'm most aware of where the times when people copied my complete plot and started their own site with the idea... (it happened quite a few times)
and, yeah, i am a rather good artist (and this is where the modesty slips away - that's right, i'm freaking amazing at drawing), but the most recent skin from khs is not my own work - except the coloring and the putting together. the artist is emi (10-rankai), she's freaking amazing ♥ but that skin was made nearly a year ago, my sites these days are much more impressive (: i must admit though, i've been dying to re-open it (my most memorable rp experiences have come from khs), so... we should totally be sister-sites or whatever the fukk they're callled XD that is... if it ever happens o.o i'm unreliable like that
as for friends codes you go down to the bottom floor of the pokemon center and talk to the first lady. then you just go to your pal pad (key items pocket) and bam - friends code ~ at least, that's how it works in heart gold/soul silver... it took me a while to figure that out, too XD but, um... yeah, we could trade pokemanzz... i've got a bunch of random little guyzz if you want any (including some cute little gibles and riolus). I never really watched the anime, though... it didn't amount to the epicness that was seto kaiba from yu-gi-oh (ah, yes, my childhood crush).
anyway, yeah! we definitely should organize something ~ gaara and sasuke would prolly make some okay friends, right?

Heeeeey, don't be mean to our site D':
KIDS IN HIGH SCHOOL isn't the most complicated of plots, but it's unfortunate that other people have stolen your idea. It's inevitable that people will take other people's ideas, or even think of the same thing as someone else, but I suppose it only matters what you do with it, XD. I mean, in science, people improve on other people's concepts all the time, right? Plagiarism is unfortunately prevalent, though.
Gaara has a plotting thread here SO LET'S PLAN ~~

Hallo there Eevee! :] My name is Elle and I play Sakura [we must thread sometime, yes?].
Anyways, you're a senior in high school? -Highfives you- Me too. xD And Pokemon is awesome. Sadly, I don't have a DS, so I can't play Heart Gold or Soul Silver. It depresses me, but you know. xD

Hey Eevee! <3 My favorite pokemon, by the way (or at least one of my favorites) ANYWAY, I am Juicy, I play Kiba and Kisame, though I think Kiba will have a brooding hatred of Sasuke because he is smarter than Kiba, yes? xD If you're up for it, I'd say they'd annoy the shit outa eachother. Or not even phase Sasuke. <3 I used to play Sasuke a lot, and I'm really happy you applied, because the others that have... they weren't really the prime cut of the meat.
AND SO, I think you're awesome. Yeah. Just sayin'. <3

ZOMG! You guys are so awesome ~ Despite the fact that Ssauke is severely socially challenged, I wanna plot with all of you <33 And Eevee is a sexy pokemanzz.
Sakura still has a thing for Sasuke, right?
Sasuke + Kiba = amazing relationship... friend/hate-type of relationship with mostly hate? Sasuke'll have to call him Doggy-Boy or Dog-Breath once in a while, though... because I find that a hilarious thing ~

I won't lie, I do love Eevee, but Vaporeon is my all time favorite. xD

I have an espeon, a flareon, an umbreon, and a plethora of eevee on my heart gold game ~
And who is Sakura without her crush on Sasuke? She's totally odd especially recently in the manga. We definitely need to rp together, mmhmm...

Ehem, JOLTEON AND FLAREON. I could never decide to be quite honest <--- old school pokemon player. Yeah, oh yeah. Be prepared for Sasuke to have random smart-ass comments heading his way in the halls/classrooms xD Yeah, Mostly hate/could be friendship xD Jus' don't piss him off (unless you want to, then, hell, go for it ) <3<3<3

Vaporeon All the way, man.
Though Jolteon is a good second.
They need to have enough friendship points so Kiba and Naruto can hoodwink Sasuke into driving them him around.
and so they can sing Kesha in the car while he drives

XD So many people have played Sasuke before around here. I haven't (although I have written him for fanfiction and whatnot), but I have to say, I love your application~ It is luff.
I'm Nitro, call me Nitro, and I play Ryou, the mouse-ish freshman. I'm an avid fanfiction writer and I do have to say that Sasuke is one of the more...interesting challenges to write. Here's hoping you do him justice. ;)
I have to agree, Naruto is my passion in fanfiction, but I've never attempted to write a highschool AU fanfic, so I wouldn't be playing him here even if he had been available. XD I doubt I'd have the confidence to play him. He's not a difficult character per se, but it's been challenging for me to write him in the past because I tend to be polite and well-mannered (more than a lot of teenagers nowadays), and Naruto...is not...
I have a love of photomanipulation, although I kind of suck at it most days unless I'm very inspired. I'm decent at basic HTML (although I never use it nowadays, so I'm pretty rusty) and was learning Ruby for a while, though I never got far past the basics. My dad's a computer programmer, though, and wants me to learn it, so I'll probably take it back up eventually.
I'm not a Pokemon fan :P I much prefer Digimon. *shot*
I kind of wanna see your art now. :) It sounds like you're good at it. Maybe I could get you to draw Ryou sometime? XD
The theme of highschool AU may be done a lot, but who is there matters a lot, because the characters depend on the people, and the plot generally depends on the characters (if it's a free-RP). It's the same with light/neutral/dark wolf RPs, one of my personal favorites (it was the first or second RP type I knew, so that's partly a matter of sentiment). Those are kind of dying out now, but when I first started RPing, they were really popular, especially for amateurs. All the plots varied because all the people varied. Even if the basis of the plots were similar, they usually took different directions because the RPers varied.
So anyway... Hope to see you around, Eevee!
