Hello, I just joined the site today and Doctress Who told me I should start a welcome thread to get my name out around here. I don't normally do anything with forums so I apologize in advance for poor ettiquette. I read the rules, but I'll admit some of the terminology went over my head (Trolling? is that just being a jerk or something?)
I'll most likely be spending the majority of my time here in the art forum, but I found the site through Everafter, so I thought I would post here!

Trolling is basically, ya, being a jerk to get a rise out of people.

Welcome to the forums.

Salutations? We treat all people who follow the rules nice over here. Just make sure to follow the rules and treat people with respect and I'm sure you'll do fine around here. Hope you have fun here. The spam section is to be avoided until you have a decent grasp of the going-ons of this place and its inhabitants, though most newbies tend to migrate there and merely participate in the game threads there. I suppose you can do what you want within reason. Anyways, going back to an earlier statement: I hope you have fun.

Yes, I had a good laugh at the example they had in the main rules and I read the rules for each forum section before posting anything. I don't take a lot of risks.

WELL, FUCK YOU!
^See this? This is how I treat people, so don't take it serious.

You seem like a smart dude and I'm pleased, but I'm gonna post the same quote I post on every intro thread so just ignore step number 2.

Welcome to the forums, newbie. Let's start off step by step.
1 - Don't write in colors. It annoys people.
2 - Do read the rules, we can never stress that out enough.
3 - 2 smillies per post. Try not using more than that or people will also get annoyed.
4 - I shouldn't even say a word about it 'cause I do it too, but keep asterisk rping to a minimum.
5 - If you want to spam, please go to the Spam Section. But beware, they are like wolves there. They'll eat you alive if you're not prepared to get insulted all the time.
6 - Please get an avatar, it helps us tell you from the next schmuck.
7 - Please enjoy your stay here.

Yeah that's Rin. It's from the song I Like You , I Love You. I like the "Daughter of Evil" series too. And "KOKORO" and "Trick and Treat". Daughter of Evil and KOKORO always make me cry though.

Oh sorry, Rin. I get the two mix the two names up a lot.

I loved Trick and Treat a lot, so much I have it on my ipod. Also, try Cantarela when you get the chance for either Rin and Len, or Miku and Kaito.

Remember kiddies, if you're gonna keep talking that you should move to the Talk Thread. Let us stop the derail that has happened and keep this on-topic again.

on topic? It's a welcome thread, is there a real topic other than "hello, this is what I write to every newb"?
thanks for the advice everyone! I'm already feeling a bit addicted to this site so I'll try to stay active on here

Yes. Usually the newbie has questions and the community attempts to answer them. Anything not along the lines of introducing a newb, helping the newb, or small representation of the community is considered to be off-topic, and is therefore Spam.

well, I don't really care if you spam this thread, I don't really have any questions (although I do realize that belongs in the spam thread). I usually learn through other people asking questions, as I can't think of any on my own...

We do mind if we spam. We had a lot of off-topics a while ago and we kinda got out of control. We're trying to prevent that from happening again.

Just because this is YOUR welcome thread, it is still not allowed to have spam. Unless it's in the spam section.
