Thread: Drawing room introductions?

  1. #1
    The Drawing Room
    For (serious) discussions on any topic. New to our boards ? Introduce yourself here ! NOTE: This forum will be moderated more strictly than the others to keep the discussions on-topic.
    Shouldn't new members introduce themselves in the lounge? Would get more replies and views that way.
    Just a thought...



    btw no offence Dyingtolive (if you're reading this), your post just reminded me of the issue

    That's why I moved his thread....I agree......need to have a little chat with admin about the room description....unless of course there are lots of serious objections.

    I thought that "new to the boards" bit was on the Lounge description...

    Shows how much I read the room descriptions then.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"

    I think it was set up like this because of the way new member's introduction threads got filled with nonsense in the lounge. Not very welcoming.

    ya, the lounge isn't a very good place to introduce one self. it will be spammed like crazy.

    Hi!

    My name is clocker and I'm just soooo excited to be a part of this forum!

    Let me tell you a bit about myself.
    I'm incredibly handsome and rich.
    When Brad Pitt sleeps, he dreams he is me.
    When Jennifer Anniston sleeps, she dreams that I am Brad Pitt.

    All this dreaming/identity swapping can be tiring, so I also enjoy afternoon naps.

    Along with fine dining and long walks on the beach.
    Naturally.

    I really hope to meet some exciting people here and join in all the cool discussions.
    I can't seem to find the Hanson Fan Club section...do I need a certain amount of posts to be able to see it?
    That's OK, I'm perfectly capable of spamming my way into a huge post count.
    I own the Internet.

    Looking forward to meeting all you fine people, using my uberl33t skillz to find your locations and then stalking you.

    This is going to be so much fun.

    I've heard that Brad Pitt has incredibly bad body odor, and has cleared the lobbies of some of the finest hotels on the planet thereby.

    I wonder how Ms. Aniston could abide him, even before he exhibited his divided loyalties?

    I do think though, that new people are more likely to make a hello thread in the lounge.

    It is generally a friendly place...if spam ridden

    The drawing room can get a little heated on occasion and has an air of strong debate issues that the lounge does not.

    This makes the lounge a little less intimidating for the newcomer.
