Umm...Hello

Snake · Moderator

Howdy, I'm Snake. This isn't your typical forum, so to say...it's a bit strange. However, if you can get past that, it's a fun place to hang out.

Mitch · Moderator

Hello. I'm Mitch. I don't know who you're talking about, but you're welcome here nonetheless. And you picked quite the forum to join.

Aerith Gainsborough · Adoring Fan

I really appreciate the warm welcome, um.. well the guy I'm talking about is a friend of a guy I know named Richard Murphy, and this friend of Crazy Rich as we all call him is a friend of another guy who knew one of your other members, I don't really know all of Richard's friends, but he told me that his friend had a friend kind of thing. I'm kind of confused now, but hey I seem to like this site.

Would you care to tell me why you think that this forum is strange, I just looked a few threads before I joined?

By the way since the both of you are moderators, do you think that I need to shrink my signature any? I reduced it by 50% a little while ago, but if you believe that I need to I will.

Yeah, a little shrinkage might be handy...large sig pics take a while to load on 56k connections, and they're quite big for people running an 800x600 resolution.

Or, if you'd like (and if I can find the time), I can try to make a sig for you with that image. I made mine, Mitch's, Jena Runner's, and Princess Garnet's (btw Mitch, I haven't forgotten about redoing Jena's sig). If you want one made, just post in the Sig requests thread.

Oh yeah, the weird thing...well, you have to take into account that there's three moderators (Mitch, Murasume, and myself), and we're all close friends. Then Mitch knows most of the other members in real life...so you get a lot of random jokes and stuff of that nature that you wouldn't get anywhere else.

Oh, and LARGE warning to you, be careful in the mature section. I wasn't absolutely crazy about adding it, but the majority rules, right? Theres some...disturbing...stuff in there, so just watch yourself.

I appreciate that Snake, but in the mean time I'll go and shrink my sig a little, I understand what you mean about the slow connection speeds and screen res. Thanks for the input.

Just in case you don't notice my edit-

Just some simple things that are good to know.

Aerith Gainsborough · Adoring Fan

Thanks for the warning Snake, I may try to steer clear of that section, unless I see that some of the threads aren't too bad, I don't really go for strong stuff like that anyway.

Well, its good to see a site that everyone is fairly close knitt together. Most forums that I've been on in the past have people from all over, which is nice, but you only know these people from they're user name and avatar. I think that it will be nice to be around people even if it is on the internet that are all around here locally.

Well, I'm glad you guys are all friendly to new members.

It's also good to note that we're getting a whole lot of new members lately, so I'm one big step closer to realizing my dream.

In case you've forgotten what that dream is........it's to be a founder of a large online community.

Oh, and I'm assuming that since you have a FF7 name an sig, you like to play games....well, so do we. We have a Gaming section, you know. Check it out.

Aerith Gainsborough · Adoring Fan

Umm... yes actually I really enjoy video games, kind of strange huh . I mainly play Role Playing games and I tend to stick with some of the older titles because a lot of new games just don't feel the way that the classics do. As you can probably tell, my favorite game is Final Fantasy VII.

Thats no problem Mitch I really don't mind if you use Aerith or Aeris.

I've noticed that everyone hear is rather friendly, and most of you all seem to have a good sense of humor

Mitch · Moderator

Cool. Glad you think so.

Anyways, I had a question. Earlier, you said that you came from another forum. Was it on the Activeboard network like this one, by chance?

Aerith Gainsborough · Adoring Fan

Actually, I used to belong to Gamefaqs, but I didn't really get along with some of the people there very well. There were some people that were kinda rude. I don't really go for rude myself, but the only one I knew from there was Richard, but he doesn't go there anymore because he has realized that beer is good to drink for some reason.

Mitch · Moderator

Oh, that's cool. Just wondering. Yeah, a lot of forums are rude actually. That's because they're all trying to prove that they're better than each other.

Random Statement: Beer gets you drunk. I don't touch the stuff myself, but I know some people who do.

Aerith Gainsborough · Adoring Fan

I personally don't understand why they have to prove themselves.

I'm not much of a drinker either myself. Richard is a good guy, but for the last couple of years to seem him not drunk is kind of like a kodak moment.
