Newb alert!

Post by terra5 »

Newbie terra5 here! I usually lurk forums for a while before signing up, and I lurked here for... about a day before signing up. I'm most likely not gonna post much, I just like being included. You'll most likely see me a lot, because I spend most of my free time on forums... and that's pretty much it.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Oh dear. You're challenging his noob statis. Or at least you will be if you do something stupid. Anyway, welcome to the forums! If you're going to be lurking, then you came at a very inoprotune time. You see, right now we are holding the King Of The Forums contest. He who posts the most wins. At least you get points for every 5 posts you get in this thread.

|-/ Oh dear, where are my manners. I'm Gardialvoir, of Gar for short. I'm the local Psychic, but I don't, correction, won't read anyone's future. You'll meet the others shortly

Well, IRL, I'm known for doing stupid things, so... I think the challenge will happen sooner or later.

Also, I don't post much in my other forums either, so even if there's a contest, it won't make a difference.

Nice to meet you!

/A/ Blastotoise/Marley: Don't worry, your noob status is safe. (For now...) And it's nice to meet you also!

Nah, your grammar's... flawless, from what I've seen, so you probably won't have to worry about stealing his n00b status (there's a U in that, Gar). He is, and forever will be, "The N00b".

...Wait. Flawless grammar. And you... plan to lurk, primarily? WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?! You see, I have a dream. I dream that some day, we will live in a perfect forum-world. And in this perfect forum-world, 1337speak will be a dead language; spambots will be a thing of the past; forum rules will be respected and enforced; and the people that CAN spell will speak up, where as the people that CAN'T, GAR, will learn to keep their mouths shut!

...I'm Silver. Local Pidgeot-worshipper, otaku, mod, and Grammar Nazi. And now, prepare to feel the wrath of my possy.

Lampshroom: Since when are we your 'possy'?
Silver: Since I decided it sounded cool. But that's not important. Super Hot Dog Man, make with the baby-saving!
Super Hot Dog Man: Can't we put it off for another new member?
Silver: No! It's a wonder the poor thing hasn't burned to death yet.
Super Hot Dog Man: But... I was... I was getting so into that speech you had going! Can't you ramble unnecessarily about grammar a little longer?
Poodle: Hey, can I drag him in here by force now?
Silver: Sure, knock yourself out. Or better yet, knock Super Hot Dog Man out.
*cue dramatic music*
Tune in next time for the exciting continuation of... whatever the heck is going on here.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

...As I was saying, 'lo. Hope you have a good time at the forums, even if you don't post much. And now since Neo appears to be MIA, instead of a Silver roast let's have some licorice!

Yeah I didn't talk to well in my first post. It's so bad, I had to edit it. I seriously did. Oh, and silver hates it when you say "i" Instead of "I" and when you forget apostrophes.

Well we can't all be pefect! But I get feeling that you want me to go away.[/sarcasm] I don't use spell check because the web browser that I use dosn't have it and I don't have Fire fox. Oh, and my dictionary is ruined, so I can't use that. So you can just shut the #%@% up about my #%@$$^ spelling, got it Silver! >-[] x infinity

You don't really NEED a spell-check or dictionary to spell things right. Just read a lot...or something... oo

Welcome to the forums, Terra5. I'm Mandi. At least, that's what everyone calls me. My full username is a bit too long, I guess. Anyway, I'm a Bleach/Ragnarok Online nut. I have more interests than just those two, but it'd take too long to list 'em all. Nice to meet you! :3

Oh yes, and I have a weird tendency to end all my paragraphs with smilies. >>

...Wow, Gar, geez. Calm down. I was only just joking. Mostly. I need to pick on some one, y'know, and you're a good candidate because you don't spazz out and curse/symbol at me. Well, usually.

Super Hot Dog Man: So... that means I don't have to rescue the baby from teh burning building yet, right?
Silver: ...Aren't you supposed to be unconscious?
Super Hot Dog Man: Yeah, turns out I'm impervious to unconsciousness.
Silver: Then you're probably fire resistant too! Go on, get in there!

There's LOTS of "free Ragnarok Online on the internet." It's something called "private servers." I play on two of them. :D
And only because the person who introduced me to RO was playing on one of those private servers, and so that's where all my friends are. I've got nothing against the official ones, but I'm not about to switch over.

They've got plenty of those private survers in RunEscape as well. They're actually pretty fun, but I don't use them often.
