Um... I realized I never did a welcome post. I'm not even sure I was welcomed. So... yeah.

I'm new on this site, but I came from TYWC when Shadow Knight said I would be great here. I'm not great here, but the critiquing is nice and being critiqued is even nicer. So... yeah.

Welcome to TYWS. Make sure to check the FAQ's before you continue. Chatspeak is prohibited and you should probably take advantage of spellchecker. Make sure your grammar is up to standard or you'll end up as Lord Fontroy.

Welcome to the site Snoink! I'm Nate, one of the admins. Anyways, don't get too used to the current layout because we're about to get a huge upgrade.

Hope to see you around! Just to warn you, we're a weird bunch.

Hi Snoink!


I'm June, but... *scratches head* Clearly there's some error. You already have a zillion posts! Are you a robot?

Okay, remember the rules, no pigs, no chatspeak, no eating in the forums. Also, wipe your shoes off before you enter. We don't need mud. Actually, take them off, but make sure you wear socks. Or slippers.

Also, remember not to be mean, and when you post your work, don't beg for reviews. And anything else, come to me, because I'm an old member and a mod and I get to boss you around. Are we clear?

Welcome, don't get too addicted, or plot bunnies will chase you! ;)

June

Hi [s]Rina[/s] Snoink and welcome to YWS! You must be special becaause Nate actually greeted you. Nate is our admin, and you always bow to him and never call him bad names behind his back.

>.>


:arrow: If you ever need any help, you should go send a million PMs to Mesh, whose name is in red. She'll be delightful to get your PMs and will be super happy to help you. You can also do that do Firestarter too. His name is in red also. They will both love you to death and help you.


:arrow: If you don't want to bother them two, you should go and PM the dark green people! They are the mods. They are willing to help you with any problems you have around the site. You should send them a million PMs as well, and they will all love you forever and ever.


:arrow: If none of them reply back after five minutes, you need to go to the light green people. They are the junior mods, who will one day become mods. They aren't as threatening as the reds or the dark greens, and usually a whole lot nicer. Althought they might not be able to help, they are super nice and will try as hard as they can.


:arrow: If you want something to be reviewed, you need to go to the purple people. Althought they seem niceat first, they turn out evil after they review your story. If you are still on the site after they shred your story, you are stronger than a lot of people we've had. The are Barney clones and they go out and attack everything. And don't listen to their I LOVE YOUs. They will end up making you go crazy and have carpal tunnel.


:arrow: Now usually, the people who would be welcoming you to the site are the blue members. They are the greeters, but don't be fooled. They are communist spies in disguise.You see, Nate is enemies with Commies, so the members are out to find out his secrets. Of course, Nate is so smart and figured out they were communist spies so he made them greeters.


Well, I hope you enjoy the site! I hope to see you around.

I'm sorry, but I just noticed this. Your pig is naked and thus indecent. Please change your avatar.

I hear if you say "Bloody Nate" in the bathroom mirror three times, he cuts off all your hair.

Pass it around.

And this is what happens when your leader and ruler stays awake beyond past after decent hours of the night working on YWS. Bless his sould, the man works like a chimp. I mean dog. Do dogs actually work that hard? Okay, now this is what happens when I stay up too late. Welcome and good-night!

Oh! And we forgot to mention that critiques that are anything other than "omg, dis wz gud" are not allowed. After all, you review count needs to stay low.

I am overwhelmed by my greeting skills in this thread. If you ever greet anyone, remember my post above - I have most certainly set the standard.

Welcome to the Ol'YWS family, Snoink! I'm Kat, nice to meet you.

I was going to explain our YWS color rainbow. Some users have their names colored <--- that means they have a job. My name is blue, so I'm a Greeter. Your name is Green... were you aware that you are a Moderator?
If not, make sure Nate checks up on that :P You can check more on the YWS staff, by clicking on the 'Help and Support' button at the top of the page, and selecting 'Help and Support Wiki'. If you search around, you'll find a bounch of itneresting things ;)

Please check the Rules, so that you can behave as a Mod, and be sure to have fun!
Pm me if you need anything ;)
*Kat*

P.S: This totally rocked :lol:
Piglet: How do you spell love?
Pooh: You don't spell it. You feel it.
