The introductory phrase should treat the fanfom as either a conspiracy or a secretive order. :3

Seriously now... ya'll want to label yourselves for this new fandom?  ... I suppose it won't get derided as something negative like some others...

I believe the tumblr folk call themselves "fallers" (according to tvtropes anyway), so that's the closest thing to an official fandom name that I know of.

Is a name really neccessary?

It's rather annoying that everything you do these days needs a name that can easily file you into one of the countless groups. That's just silly, calling yourself something just because you watch a cartoon.

Some people like fandom names since they can wear it around as a badge of pride. I don't have a problem with that, myself.

Necessary? No. But they can be fun depending on who you ask.

Personally, I prefer to not refer myself by fandom names...  its more fun being subtle and having someone else recognize it.  +1 whether they are a fan themselves or not, as long as they recognize it for what it is.

Though... it can be used for a vehicle of trolling lately...

Pretty much, it's completely unneccessary to have one, as they are usually either used as derrogatory terms or used as snobby 'I'm better than you' thing, which is why I'm somewhat adverse to using them and wearing them myself (that and a few things from the past cocerning groups of people and their music tastes).

But wearing small hints like that is quite fine, heck I do it myself and it's great fun having conversations about it.

I was mainly looking for a welcome to the fandom phrase, not a group name. Sort of like how the MLP:FIM fandom has the "Welcome to the Herd" phrase.

Every dwarf, every dwarven man, women, and child, that comes to our forts will die there; it's truly sad when you think about it. And we ask our selves, why? Why do we push forward, knowing this fate, that we are destined for failure? Because, this game grasps the concept of mortality. Some games you can never lose, but we all stop eventually, causing a 'death' to those game's 'worlds'. Dwarf Fortress gives us a definite end, knowing that we will leave that world eventually, and move on to more.

Most fandoms don't have a series of special catch phrases.
