Paroli nur unu lingvon estas uzi nur unu koloron de farbo. La lingvo de amikeco ne estas vortoj, sed signifoj.
A single Leaf,
Hanging to a Branch;
The Wind blew it around,
This way, nay that way,
Until one day,
The Leaf decided to fall off.The falling Leaf,
Dancing in the Wind;
It traversed the countryside,
This way, nay that way,
Until it reached a River,
And landed in it.The floating Leaf,
Sailing in the River;
It meandered through the valley,
This way, nay that way,
Until it reached a calm stretch,
And washed ashore.Two botanists,
Finding this Leaf;
They were arguing its origins,
“This way!” “Nay, that way!”
Until they reached the decision,
It came from upstream.This pressed Leaf,
Being auctioned off;
The highest bid was swaying around,
This way, nay that way,
Until one Man won,
For not a small sum.That same Man,
Accidentally dropping his Leaf;
The fragments scattered in the Wind,
This way, nay that way,
Until they reached the forest,
That they came from.

Greetings, visitor! My name is Chicago Ted, a typical user on Fimfiction. I have a passion for foreign/non-English languages, video games, and, naturally, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

[Français] Qui suis-je ?
Bonjour, visiteur ! Je suis Chicago Ted, un utilisateur de FimFiction parmi d'autres. Je suis intéressé par les langues étrangères, les jeux vidéo, et, bien sûr, par My Little Pony : Les amies, c'est magique ! Je parle espéranto, albanais, et kélen, et, si vous le souhaitez, je peux traduire des textes depuis ou vers ces langues. J'espère que nous pourrons devenir de bons amis. Bonne continuation !
Sincèrement,

Until 22 November 1907, the Albanian language was written in a wide variety of alphabets. There was a Greek version, a Cyrillic version, an Arabic version, a few varying Latin versions-- and the several home-grown scripts that never saw widespread use.

You forgot to delete the accusative -n from "vortojn" and "signifojn"; the verb "esti" doesn't have accusative.

Gah. Right, I ought to correct my Esperanto. (Coming from an American English background, case declension still seems to be a foreign concept to me!)
The Chinese one isn't mine, it's BlackDenimCap's. Talk to him about it.
Thanks for dropping by, fellow language fan!
Hi! I'm a big fan of languages, especially constructed ones, and I see that you have a passion for languages too!
I noticed something in your Bio, though:
Shouldn't that be:
Also, the Chinese "Who Am I" is a bit weird in some places.

Hey, thanks for the favorite on Project R.U.M.P. I would make a pun here, but I think I've made enough in that story, doncha think?
Thank you for leaving a comment and adding your favorite list!
It's great to meet someone with a crazy but creative mind such as yourself
. Anyways, it's a pleasure to meet you! 
Any chance you're a writer? (Yes, IK you have one story in your prof, but sometimes ppl only write when they want) If yes, I can offer you or you can offer me a hoof in writing. 
It's also another way to know ppl better. That is, by sharing each others ideas 
Also, love your memes! If you have a blog, I would gladly follow it!
You're sense of humor is just the kind of humor I'm looking for in ppl 
Yours truly,
MysticCptTidalStirling29 ;P (<-- Just so you know, that face right there is actually my signature on quotes or whatever such as this)
Solid L4D reference there.
¡Salutojn!
¿Kiel vi fartas?
Nice to meet you. I must admit, I don't have an interest in language, but I do find linguists fascinating.
Damn where were you when I was killing all those zombies.
Thank you for adding M.A. Larson Pisses off Colgate to your favorites.
I just remembered what your name comes from.
