Title: Newbie :3
Post by: Synonymous on September 18, 2006, 06:26:08 PM
Hello. I'm new here. (Obviously.)

My name is Syn, and it's not a stupid "cool" way to spell sin.  :C ...It's also not my real name, but I like it so that's what I go by. I don't think I needed to explain that, but I did. Argh, I can't stop rambling...

'Kay, so basically my little story thing is that I've been reading DMFA for a while now; I'm not exactly sure when I started reading it. (Before the SAIA arc, for sure.) I occasionally visited the forum and read posts, but I never actually signed up. For some strange, unknown reason, I seem to have worked up the courage to join the "new" forum and even make a little "hi i'm new lol" post. (I'm not sure why, though, since this is a combined forum and therefore I don't know who all of the people are anymore.)

I love reading webcomics, and unless I think they're boring or stupid, I read them whenever they update. I also like reading novels, watching cartoons/anime, playing video games, and writing. I draw sometimes, but the result isn't anything spectacular, as evidenced by this (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v258/rosegirl/mydrawingcropped.png).

I probably won't post much, unless I get the urge to say something and I can't stop myself. If I post too much, people might know who I am, and then I'll flee.  :U I have commitment issues or something, I think.

So in short, I'm a procrastinating stalker that probably already knows who you are. ...Because I lurk for a long time before joining anything. It really helps, because then I know who will annoy me and who I think is cool.  :D Um... I'm going to stop typing now. This is getting kinda long.

I'd say "hi, welcome, etc" and give you your warnings, but... I can't be bothered.

Maybe tomorrow, ok? :-)

*slinks out of the closet* Synonymous, eh? Cool name. Well, if you've been lurking on the forums that long you've probably already heard what I have to say to newbies millions of times. However, since I have little better to do...
1) Be nice, or the forumites will eat you.
2) Cute rules all in the DMFA section. Don't piss off chibis.
3) Artists are in charge. Writers are also in charge. Mess with neither, or they'll probably find some suitably creative way of getting you back. See number four.
4) Don't be pretty. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
5) If you see a ferret or a fox smiling at you, any of them, for the love of (insert thing you like here) RUN THE @#$% AWAY!

By the way, the pics aren't that bad. You're most certainly off to a good start.

To everyone: Thanks for the welcomes!  :3 

To ×HaZ×MaT×: *shakes hand*

To Leafar: I actually haven't played any Castlevania games.  :< I heard they're good, though, and I might play one someday if I can stop wasting my money. I think I actually have a Castlevania song on my computer somewhere, though I'm not sure how it got there. And I'll just take your word on the bat thing.

To Boogeyman: Thanks!

Oh good, you made a second post. Have a brownie point, and enjoy the madness.

The third post is, of course, the critical one that shows if they'll ever come back, or if they've gone into hiding under their chair, mewing piteously and praying the world becomes sane again...
Title: Re: Newbie :3
Post by: Synonymous on September 18, 2006, 07:45:50 PM
To Leafar: You're from Brazil? I actually couldn't tell that English wasn't your first language.
And if I need help, I'll be sure to PM you. Thanks for the offer! I'll be sure not to attack you with questions or anything, though.

To BillBuckner: I'd feel bad if I didn't reply to the people welcoming me. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have replied. Thanks for the brownie point, though. :3

To llearch n'n'daCorna:  :)

Rawr. I'm Miaka, and you'll find out about me at some point, I suppose. I don't actually do much, but uh..... I s'pose I fall under that "Artist" label, don't I?
I used to have warnings and such, but people stole them over time... those bastards.
Oh well.

Feel free to ask me anything, just send a pm my way or something and I'll dio my best! Or, y'know, if you just wanna talk to someone about something, I'll try not to be a horrible person and listen to you.

Have an acorn of +1 Squirrel distracting.

Someone else try and describe me, I'm lazy. ><

Hey.  You stole.  My.  Signature Newbie.  Welcoming piece.  Why.  You crazy villain.  Why this.  Crazy.  World!

Do that again and I'll sing Mr. Tambourine Man at you.  I will!  Mark my words.

I'm not entirely sure what I can do now other than welcome the new person.  Perhaps I could make jokes about the upcoming apocalypse ... but that wouldn't be right.

Eyestrain? I don't have any. I can read that.

Anyway, welcome new guy. Just stay away from the Party Dino.

HI! Welcome aboard, or to the board, or whatever - you know how it goes. ;)

If you've been lurking this long, you know the deal - leave your sanity (if any) at the door, etc....

Lurking is not a bad thing in itself - I know I lurked on the old forum for some time before "taking the plunge", and I've never looked back.

Have a welcome gift. *gives the new person a souvenir coffee mug*

Enjoy the craziness your stay.
