The "Hello, I'm new"-thread

Post by GySgt. Hartman »

Hello, I'm new. (could have guessed that, right?)
I opened this thread so that all the "welcomes", "fuck offs" and "we don't cares" wouldn't disrupt the operation of my fanfic thread.
I am a Star Wars fan (and a master of the obvious), although not a rabid one. I played and liked (and still like) the RPG (and parentheses), but I also know what's canon and whats not.
If you want to know more, PM me, ask here or wait what time will bring.

Interesting....I saw you when you were brand new, hadn't posted. wondered if you would show up keeping your name as it is.

*Takes aim with M-14*
*bang*
THERE'S your verilonitis shot.

Welcome to hell. Pervert everything you know. Or Think you know. Forget social norms. Let your sickness hang out. We're all sick. If you try to hide it you will be chastized, ostrasized and other -cized's. lose yourself in the insanity, enjoy your trip through the alterverse. if you don't understand something, Don't ask. All will be made clear in time. Avoid The BS swamps, many are the souls lost in those sewers never to be seen again. The RayCav wastes are to be avoided at all costs. If you must venture forth, seek ye the keeper of archives (The search button) The RayCav wastes are a land of pure Evil. For at once you may be walking through a peaceful, calm meadow and the next step leads to the swamp of no Hope, (Complete with the G'Mork). And lastly, Beware the monkeys.

Few simple rules that will liven your stay.

1. Don't feed the trolls...that's all they want.

2. Read the Annoucements...this will avoid many hardships brought to you from Mods, Supermods, and most importantly Admins.

3. Enjoy your stay...we are relaxed bunch.

Pretty daring with the name, I'd be dissapointed if you don't live up to it . :wink:

If you're new, read the announcements, lurk, and then just start posting.

These "Hi I'm a n00b" threads only result in a lot of spam.

Greasy, salty spam.

I read, I lurked, and I started posting. I just didn't want all the spam that invariably comes up when someone realizes that I am new, and feels the need to tell me that, to end up in my important thread.

I don't intend to fuck any admins, I've got a girlfriend, thank you.

Apone wasn't a MSgt, was he? And there's only spammination when someone ANNOUNCES they're new, jump right in, and no one's the wiser. Then just ease on into the main flow of things. Helps to avoid hullaballoo.

OTOH,
"That's 'cause droids don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they aren't fed. Wookiees are known to do that. "
Yes, I know this was a misquote. Bite me.

Welcome, GySgt Hartman, to the sd.net BBS. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. You must be cautious.

OH, and while it means I invested a fat load of money in a now completely useless poke-a-rang, my esteemed co-flamewarriors are right-just dive right in, and most of the spam (like this post) will never happen in the first place.

'Tactically we have multiple objectives. So we need to split into teams.'-'Dibs on the Amazon!'
'Hey, we both have a Martian's phone number on our speed dial. I think I deserve the benefit of the doubt.'

I can of course not speak for the rest of the board but I will NEVER eat Troll again.
