I'd just suggest you read the rules and then you should be able to make it out alive 

Hopefully

We won't flame you for stupidity... outside of The Villa. To tell the truth, we tend to be rather polite about stupidity, especially when you're up front about it. We'll... just... say... everything... slower... for... you.

Meanwhile, enjoy yourself, read the rules, be friendly to the mods, don't piss off the mods, beware the Boxy one and those who would give you advice and seem friendly (for they are of Evil, and not to be trusted).

Oh, and "welcome to the mansion!"

It has been mentioned, but it bears repeating, read the rules. Beware the mod, the insane, and the Box. How did you come here, by the way?

Welcome to the Mansion.

I wouldn't go with insane.  Let's work on being around a bit longer before we work on scaring the newer newbies, 'kay?

Actually my comment about my sanity has nothing to do with how long I've been on this site.

Brunhidden: Couldn't I just mind-crush him?
Jairus: You can't fix all your problems by mind-crushing people!
Brunhidden: Oh, come on! Just one little mind-crush, it'll barely hurt him.
Jairus: No! Bad Brun! No mind-crush!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

My mug at this point is a grinfactor (http://www.grinfactor.com) one. It says: "Please Do Not Be Intimidated By My Superior Intellect - I. Will. Speak. Very. Slowly." (http://www.grinfactor.com/OCUImages/Pic31.jpg)

This is strangely applicable, no? ;-]

Edit:
Looking for that image, I found this one (http://www.grinfactor.com/OCUImages/Pic15.jpg), which amused me. They have some good shirts on there...

Since when did any of us agree not to flame people?

Fire does fix a lot of problems...

llearch, might want to speak loudly if you're gonna speak slowly. Some of us can't hear you all the way from wherever you are.

It's not so much a matter of volume as it is one of enunciation. You could be the loudest person in the world, and people wouldn't understand you because you are not speaking clearly (or because their ear drums exploded). Enunciation and volume: two very important things for a stage actor.

... I'd be quite amused at llearch yelling slowly and making no sense.

I don't yell. I speak. And if you're not listening, then that's just too bad. For you.

Jarius does, but in a room of mostly furs that usually entails a water spray bottle, rolled up newspaper, and possibly a vacuum cleaner or a choke chain

Welcome aboard, be sure to have fun while you're here. Oh, and never eat any muffins you are offered here, ever. Unless of course, you want to use them as black powder, then it's okay I guess.

A water spray bottle and a vacuum cleaner? I am intrigued by this room...

And so, this one welcomes thee to this interesting place.   :januscat

What you and your wife want to do in the bedroom is none of my business, Brun. Be sure to have a safe word, though, or else things could end tragically.

Post by: LionHeart on March 07, 2009, 12:52:11 PM
True that.

Welcome, new person, to this place - a dimension of sight and sound, but mostly of mind.

Be sure to leave your remaining sanity (if any) at the secure storage provided, and hold onto your claim ticket.

Other than that, follow the rules, beware the box, and shun the frumious bandersnatch, and you should be fine.

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

Enjoy your time here.

*waves, and vanishes in a shower of coloured sparkles*

And don't forget it. Things would have been so much better if Jesus hadn't forgotten the safe word....

*falls over laughing* Great, now I'll never be able to take Easter seriously again.

Hey, maybe "Easter" was the safeword?

Nah it was far more complicated, which is why he forgot it. "bunnies lay eggs on Easter"

Who knew it would catch on?
