Sup!

Since I posted about myself already in the "About the Authors" thread, I'll keep this one nice and brief.

Hello!

I've read the rules and everything. Just wanted to make an official "Hello World!" thread

So all in all... I'm glad I could make it

Hello!

Hey there and an *official* welcome to YWS!

We're glad you could make it to. Feel free to pm me if you need anything.

Awesome! Thanks

Hey Xunnamius, welcome to YWS!

Love that user name, super cool

Have you noticed the Groups yet? They're worth checking out if you haven't. There are about a million of them so you're bound to find a couple you like. They're a really great place to make some fast friends because you'll be talking to people that have really similar interests as you

Get ready for some really hard questions...
What's your favorite genre to read/write? What kind of music do you listen to? What's your favorite kind of ice cream? If you were a shoe, what kind of shoe would you be and why? If you were a marine biologist, what animal would you study and why?

I hope you have a great time here and if you have any questions or need anything, feel free to PM me!

Welcome to YWS ^^ I'm Shina, one of the instructor-greeters of the site. It is my job and my pleasure to greet the newbs of YWS

Just a few rules:

2:1 Ratio. Review 2 pieces of work before you ever post, ever.

Never use CAPS... Or else.

Use proper spelling and grammar.

Be nice, be professional.


And now, I shall introduce you to the gang using smilies:
(NOTE: not everyone who's on this site had a matching smilie)

<--- this is Teague, Queen of the Cacti!

<--- This is Jared (bigbadbear), but it should be violin.

<--- It's Snoink! The leader of the completely evil plan!

<--- This is Hawkie, she's a super Avatar fan!

<--- This is Nate. He rules YWS.

<---- Meet Music (Musicaloo7311)

<--- People from TW sound like this

<--- It's Nutty-Senpai! She can fly!

<--- Samuel Garrison, but lest pirate-y and more colonial.

<---- Hey look! It's me! Angel's Symphony xD (Shina)

<--- This is the dancing elephant. He is often used.

<--- It's Gal (galerius)! The ten-year old girl on YWS who's going to be 11 soon!

<--- Stella Thomas! She's just like Dorothy *nods*

<---- this is what happens when the mods catch you with caps, and by "you", I mean everyone with a title below green.

<--- Most newbs look like this.

<-- This was June (springrain) on June 29th.
But usually she's working overtime like this ---> She tries (and usually succeeds) in making sure everything is reviewed.

<---- Meet Rosey, she's the one who owns the color pink on this site and who comes up whenever unicorns are being spoken about.

<--- Meet Evi (should have pink hair), one of the younger YWS members like me who seem all nice and friendly...until she reviews you.

<---- This is Jabbs (jabberhut), just imagine this smilie without the smile guy and the chicken, and you've got a hut!

<---- Meet Lin. She does the the YWS news.

<---- This is Demi (demeter), she's Simba!

<--- This is Pork (prokaryote). He's umm... The smilie says it all

<---- What usually happens during the Purps Vs. Blue wars

<--- People before YWS

<---- When the new members first get online

<---- And then the greeters come and say "hi" to them.

<---- The new members once they get the hang of things

<---- And then the instructors come in and shred their work....

<---- they end up, like this.

<--- And after they realize how much better their work is, like this.

Mhmmm, and that's the summary of YWS in smilies.

Any questions? Or are you good to go ?

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone

That gang of smilies looks pretty vicious! Just kidding lol.

What's your favorite genre to read/write? What kind of music do you listen to? What's your favorite kind of ice cream? If you were a shoe, what kind of shoe would you be and why? If you were a marine biologist, what animal would you study and why?

Favorite genre? Hmm. Probably Action/Adventure fiction, Science fiction, or Fantasy fiction

Favorite ice cream? Vanilla by far

Too many kinds of shoes

Marine biologist 'eh. Hmm. Killer whale. It has "killer" in its name. Do I have to say any more?

Thanks again everyone! I think I'm good to go.
