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

That, er, sounds extremely painful. And slightly odd. I hope the moustache was worth the trouble?

Hey Carmen! It's great that you're enjoying YWS already! Woohoo! Don't worry, after a while here, you'll see your writings improve.

Oh and Alice. Ouch. That must've been awful. But, I love Luigi!

PM me if you need any help guys.

As evident from the giant "NOOB" stamped across my forehead, this is my first time to YWS. Actually, I just learned of its existence earlier this day. But this place seems nice, and certainly more personable than some other writing websites out there. I'm hoping I get into the groove of things quickly, and I plan on being here for a while.

But whether James really did take off Snape's pants, Harry never found out.

Hi everyone! I'm not exactly new new. I had an account a little over a year ago, but then didn't get on much, and (of course!) I lost my info. So now I guess I'm new again! haha

Anyway, the name is Arya. I'm a fifteen year old Georgia girl with a thirst for action and adventure whether that be on paper or in life. I have a YA literature blog (http://seaofpages.blogspot.com) A Sea of Pages, and I'm currently writing my third novel.

I love meeting new people so if you're ever bored feel free to give me a shout. =)

Hey Arya, good to have you back! Three novels is quite the accomplishment.

Also, Georgia? Awesome! I'm from Arkansas; we southern belles have to stick together!

PM me if you ever need a crit on something!

Hi! As you may have already guessed, I'm new here. ^_^

I have just finished looking over the YWS forum and I want to say thank you so much; it really helped! (And I don't find myself so confused now XD)

Hmm....do you think I should post another topic in the Welcome area?

Maybe I should.

Anyway, I really like Ranger's Apprentice (look at my avvie). It's an amazing series by John Flanagan, and the US has finally released the eighth book! 8D

I adore writing fan-fiction.

It's why I have an account on Fanfiction.net, after all. And I have some ideas running through my head for original fiction stories. It's just that...somehow...*scratches head* they all somehow transform into fan-fiction stories.

I'm going to have fun on this site! Some of this stuff is a million times better than what I write. XD

Hi everyone! I joined a few days ago. I had no idea this welcome area existed until now. So far I have found everyone to be polite, which is quite rare for forums. I think I'm going to stick around for a while. ^_^
