Welcome New Members! [2]

Snoink · 2009-01-17T19:40:27Z

Hello and welcome to the site! We're glad to meet you. You can use this thread to talk to fellow newbies or whatever, or you can make your own post and get welcomed individually. We don't care. :P Anyway, as you probably guessed, this is a writing forum and we have thousands of members! Yet we're a really close bunch and we love everybody. ^^ I'm Snoink! I do have another name, but seriously, everybody knows me as Snoink. I'm a moderator of YWS (all moderators have green/red names), which means I help run things here. It's a kind of big site at first, but it's really fun, so don't worry. ^^ Almost all the members are wonderful people and if you bug them with questions, they'll be ready to help you with really anything at all. Also, if you encounter any problems, don't be afraid to contact the moderators (we're the ones with green names!) or the administrators (they're in red!) We're here to help you. :) Now, just to lay down rules, guidelines, and stuff: :arrow: We like proper English. That is, we don't substitute "da" for "the," we don't say "im" for "I'm," we don't say "u" for "you," and we expect you to capitalize each word of every sentence in your regular posts. Typos can happen, but don't start talking like you're texting. We're crazy like that. :arrow: We like black text. You'll see a bunch of people with crazy colored fonts... but they're weird. :P Stick with black and I'll love you forever. :arrow: We want you to rate your story or poem. That way, it can show up on the front page and everybody can see it. ^_^ If you have an f-word in your story or it's particularly explicit, rate it 18+. It won't show up on the front page, but people will know what they're getting into. Okay. So now that's done. XD Now, mingle! :D

I'm starting to get the hang of things around here, I've posted quite a few things and I was wondering if any one would comment on my new poem 'Is Anybody Out There'? It would mean a lot, thanks !

Hullo, there dearies. 'Tis I, feel free to call me Charley or Twisted.

I've never written anything on my own besides the mandated assignments handed to me (and even then, I sometimes don't get around to it). Typically, I've been assisted with role playing or for those who do not know what that means collaborations so to speak. I write in a single voice/character and the other wordsmith does the same with a plot in line. In short, we wing it.

Now that I've bored you sufficiently with talking about myself, what about you mates?

Why, thank you.

Tell me mister knightley, where do you find yourself lingering the most on this particular site? If I may pry, that is.

It all depends really. If I'm in the mood to review, I usually go to either the fantasy short story section or other poetry. I have no idea why.

If I'm just bored and I want to have fun, probably Word Play, Randomness, or the Lounge. There's no part that I really neglect though...except for romantic short stories/novels.

Not my cup of tea, that's for sure.

Edit: Role playing on YWS is called Storybooking. You should check the forum out if you like doing that; there are tons of Storybooks to join and there's always new ones!

Savvy, haha. Trust me, mate. I understand what you mean when it comes to the "romance" section. It's not my thing even though I specialized in that area on a role play site, less mushy feelings and more messy. Relationships are anything, but clean. Catch what I mean?

Thanks for the heads up! Although, I joined the site to write solo. See if that works out, lemme snort derisively to my own comment. Like that's going to happen.

You write your own work or stick to reviewing?

Hello, iwrite27! Wow, that's a mouthful. xD Do you have any nicknames?

Welcome to YWS! I hope you're not finding it too confusing so far - I think the layout's pretty snazzy and it's all easy to navigate. However, if you are having any problems, then feel free to let me know and I'll see if I can help you out.

See you around!

Pleasure to meet you, vampy(?). I've been a bit confused with The Lounge and what have you, but it's been interesting to see how I'll venture out. How has your experience been thus far?

To answer your question Carl my experience here at YWS has been very stimulating and my writing has been slowly improving. Welcome iwrite27, hope to be seeing your work in the forums soon.
