Hello everyone. I don't really know what you're meant to say on these introductory threads, so... Hi.

I hope your not too lost, but I wouldn't worry to much about it. I'm happy to see another guy here, since we are the minority. Things will start to piece themselves together as you get used to the site. You'll also begin to notice patterns and what areas of the site you prefer.
To most new people I like to recommend checking out the storybook forum. It's an extremely active section of the site, and it's really enjoyable to quickly evolve a plot along with other users. Also the people are very accepting of newcomers and welcome anyone to join their storybook.
Anything else your having a problem with, other than being lost?

I did have a slight mishap involving reviews and comments earlier, but that's all sorted. Nobody got hurt, and there are absolutely no bodies whatsoever buried under the floorboards. Or hidden in industrial freezers. Or, for that matter, shrink-wrapped and disguised as a frankly unconvincing snowman.

@Day: Authonomy is a bit like YWS and Inkpop, only aimed at 18 and older. As an exclusively adult site, it is rife with trolls and flamers. You don't have to be 18 to view the stories, just to use the site. It's an insurance thing.
