Hi,

I'm new to this board and was referred here by my roommate here at school, Artsemis. I currently go to school at West Virginia University Institute of Technology. I'm studying Civil Engineering...what a bore I know..haha. Just hope to be makin the bucks someday. Into all sorts of things, esp. sports. Yell at me or PM me sometime if you want to chat as I have AOL messenger. Talk to you all soon. Andy

erlow, first post.

so i don't see anywhere were you can view you own post count, just to see what's what and where i'm at.

whats the deal with this place overall? like what kind of board is it?

check out the readme's in newbies... those'll answer a lot of your questions. in all, though, it's a... hrm, how do I put it... it's a board with less bullshit than most.

Hi
 

Im new

welcome newbie..look around and have fun

Hola Everybody!
 

Howdy all...stumbled across this forum quite awhile back from another. Have been lurking a bit and this seems to be an interesting group. As such, I am going to try to become a bit more active on this board than I usually would be so I figured a good start would be to say hello.

Anyway, hope everybody has a great weekend!

Take care,

J

Hello everybody!! I found out about this site through a friend.
Cool Site!

Hey Boner

New guy here Biff Snauker

Somewhat new guy....I was here when the titty board was all the buzz. I was here when the whole board crashed in April. But i really never posted, instead I just went for the hacked porn sites. I have since grown out that and now i am just looking to chat and have fun.

MRb

Yahar! I be new to ye board!
 

Happy christmas to ye all! Yar!

indeed you arr...

new today for that matter.. welcome!

BlindBeard, eh? you a pirate from a lost time?

You shall see soon, YahHar!

I posted here a while ago. . . but I wanted to take this chance to properly introduce myself.

I have been posting to the TFP for eleven days. This site has become more than an addiction for me; I spend almost all of my time here while surfing the 'world wide web.'

I would like to say one thing to all that make this community possible (moderators, the community itself, and Hal esp.) -- thank you. You have taught me, allowed me to express myself, and given me a venue to have an intercourse of intelligent discussion.

Again, thank you. I am very pleased with the people that I have met here and the forum that has been provided (for without this we would have nothing.)

HI I'm Kyp's Girl, (real name is Kayla) but my boyfriend's ID on here is Kyp. Anyways, I'm 18 years old and currently attending college. I love music, horses and paintball.

whats up how is every one doig tonight

Sup nuckas
 

I'm new here, an exile from OT.

what do I need to know about this place?

what is ot?

I can't say, that's rule #1.

What the hell does "nuckas" mean?

I am the meanest
the prettiest
the baddest mo-fo around this town

Well, who am I?

SHO NUFF, the shogun of DC

*step up to the soapbox*
Ok, my presentation is gonna be short but here goes...

My name is Jeff
I am Canadian
We have a prime minister, not a president
We don't live in igloos and ice skate all the time
We don't have to worry about keeping our pets or kids indoors cause of polar bears roaming around in our back yards
We don't keep beavers or moose as pets
We don't know everyone who lives here, so don't ask if we know "Jon" from Canada
We do have McDonald's here, and they don't serve McCaribou
Fur trading is NOT our #1 industry
We don't turn off the Niagara Falls at night
We do have the same Christmas as you
Yes we have more then 1 TV station and we get the same Movies and TV shows as you
It does get warm here in the summer, and the snow actually does melt
We don't find it hilarious when you ask us to say "EH" over and over again

*step off soapbox*

hi Jeff, we actually have quite a few canadians on the boards. make yourself at home, most of us know you don't live in igloos ;) now, those Alaskians on the other hand... ;)

Hi everybody!

This is my presentation (or rather a bad attempt at one),
I was refered here by a guy who said this was an awesome place on the net. So I thought I'd register and see what all the fuzz was about.
I'm considering myself to be human (well a guy can dream can't he??), I like computers, litterature and philosophy. The guy who gave me the link here said it had a killer Philosophy forum so I just have to check it out.

Anyway,
I don't know what else to write so,

*Burns to ashes*

Thanks

::waves::

I'm Cherry; certified internet junkie, spoiled brat, prolific poster of pointless little gems.

A friend of mine pointed me in this direction, under the impression that this forum and I would make a good fit.

Hey. Name's Erik. Came here a couple times a long time ago when the ol' titty board was here. Wanted to find a good community forum. I hope this is the place.

Welcome all you new members! Please feel free to send me a PM (Personal Message) if you ever are in need of some help with the way TFP works. Granted, I'm not exactly an expert on everything, but I can try to help you out, or refer you to someone else who possibly could. Have fun!

Hellooooooo,

This looks like yet another excellent site to procrastinate at... something i plan on doing quite often... hehe

So, here I am. :)

Mostly a lurker I suppose, I hail from Texas, do a fair amount of geek things, and am happily married.

Your first baby is due in a few weeks. It's been a big change for us already, but I think we're up for the task. We decided not to determine the gender which has most of our family freaked out. I didn't know this was so old-school these days.

My current hobby in my copious free time is geocaching. Austin has been a great place for this and I've really enjoyed finding parks and such where I live that I hadn't visited before.

hello
 

hi. i'm new here andjust wanted to give a shout out to everyone here who likes to take a little pause for the cause...if ya know what i mean. anyway, ttyl.

Poison Ivy sent me. We are buds from theatre, so yes, I am out of the closet from the start, I am a thespian ;)

Ok, academic creds:
I am a mathmatics major going into my senior year, yikes I feel old. I speak four languages - English, Spanish, German and SEE sign language, though you don't really speek sign language and lack of use has made my Spanish and SL rather rusty. I'd like to learn Gaelic, Japanese or Mandarin, Aramaic, and Quenya.

Other stuff:
I am a SCAdian, which means I do medieval reinactments. In that vein, I do archery and currently shoot with a 55# wooden recurve. I also am interested in bardic lore, though my repotoire is fairly limited as of yet. I am a red-black belt in tae kwon do, and I am freakishly flexible, for your too much information.

Peace be with you,
G.

i'm not as interesting as the last guy. i'm a soldier, that should be enough.

Giltwist.. SCA? I did kendo for a while, and then got turned on to shinai and lights because I was tired of getting beat up (kendo is rough). Owesome list of other stuff, if I may say. I dont have near the mastry of language that you have, I only speak 2 languages fluently, and 2 others slightly more than mediocre.

DJsneex, you and Giltwist may have more in common than you may think, soldiers share a lot of the qualities that are found in good SCA and tae kwon do (especially if taught traditionally).

Repentant:
No, thank goodness my lady is not pregnant at the moment, her parents (and mine, I suppose) would be decidedly unhappy at that...
But I hope that yours is born healthy and strong, at any rate.

feelgood - ever watch "talking with americans"? awesome show about the kind of thing you're ranting about.. its really funny some of the things they'll believe :D

Welcome to all of you, and enjoy your stay.

SCA - The Society for Creative Anachronism.

Anachronistic - The state of being out of time or place

Hi, i'm twistad, well that's it, i also live in Mtl, canada. yay!!

hi, i'm new, and i'm posting like a mad bastard.

Hello.

I'm a computer programmer in NJ... particularly interested in the Philosophy part of this unique forum =)

...and I guess I would have to admit some sexuality =P

Hope I can have some fun here!

reintroduction
 

Hello there, I used to post on this board a long time ago as 'prong' but alas, my account seems to be zapped.

Well, I saw "Requiem for a Dream" tonight, and I'm looking for something to ease my twisted stomach. I don't know why TFP came to mind, but there you go.

Hello everyone,

I'm Mikee. I'm a virgin to this site. Glad to be apart of this community :) I'm a puter geek and I really dig music. I have a wife, and 2 kids.

Thats about it :)

Hi everybody,
I'm Lightning, I'm new to the board...
I hope I can make some new friends and add something good to the discussions.

What's up
 

Hey new to the tfproject, but not to the 'net. Here's a little bit about myself. I work 2nd level helpdesk and deskside installs for a major restaurant corporation that has this site blocked so I won't be posting from work.

I'm struggling to study for more computer certifications. :crazy:

I love reading, computers, music, and my wonderful wife of 3 years.

I'll be 30 on October 30th of next year.

I run a radio webcast on Live365.com. I may eventually add a .sig with a link to it and all, but I'll save that for when you guys actually know me and all:D

I am a Christian, but I still hold on to rational thinking and my political views border on moderate to conservative.

I love cold weather.

Autumn is the best season.

I've learned to never start a land war in Asia, but more importantly, though slightly lesser known, never go up against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

Any questions?

Re: reintroduction
 

we had a harddrive failure and massive data loss. everyone lost their accounts and had to start over. welcome back :)

Hi. I'm Katie. I'm new. That's all!

Im just some random loser :D

Hello ALL!!
 

I'm new here, and I am lost...REALLY I AM!! I just wonder around life aimlessly looking for something to do, just for something to do!!! Anyway...Nice Board!!:D

Whats up everybody, I'm new here also. So far looks like an awesome board here. Can't wait to start contributing and learning.

whatttup all.. holla out from the OC.. well.. lil lrvine actually..

Lot's to read here, looks great.
Ok here I go. i think I'm ready for this.

Well as long as everyone had to start over, I don't feel so bad anymore. Ahhh. Nothing like an identity change anyway.

Hey all. Sherpahigh here, looking for a place to happen.

Hi I'm new
 

The name is in homage to a character of the Disc world, carrot ironfounderson, a 190cm dwarf who lives in ankh morpork.

I'm new too! I hope we can be friends!

:D

Hey there all. Recent immigrant from another board here, will likely be found in the politics/current affairs type areas. Canadian, central Ontario, working in Toronto.

Yes, lets.

Brit, discworld fan, early 20s , political forum and anything involving pointless arguing.

Well isn't this quite the bustling community? Looking forward to becoming a part of it.

Howdy Y'all! yup I'm from texas, but thats the last bit of drawl you'll get oughta me! I am also a recent immigrant from another, less intellectual forum, I hope this place is more fun'n and less bash'n!!

Hello folks!
 

Hello folks. I'm new here, my friends Skafe and Kiwiman brought me here. Just thought I'd say hi.

Hey tfp freaks, name's BlitzkriegMcCannon. I got directed here by some good friends from another forum and in r/l. I got tired of being flamzored all the time for not going with the majority opinion, so when my friends Lasereth and Bluemax started a thread called TFP on the forum site we have in common, and then went about detailing the good shit about the forums, I decided that I would give this place a try. Also, seeing as how there are at least 50-90,000 posters on this site, there's gotta be some interesting shit going on here. Well, that about does it for the first from me, but I'll be sure to check this place out in full.

Hi
 

We're going streaking.

Hey what's up to everybody! I just wanna give a shout out to my homie Cornflake, this Ct. Chocula....wait.....this isn't the radio station????????

lol
(just had to do it)

Found this site through the blog of a rogue think tank......I'll keep this short as I now must brew another pot of french roast.....as I'm going to have a lot of reading to do here......

whats up mates!
 

I am not that new to hear but since the board changed a few months ago I have been lost and my screen name got screwed up and I just gave up on TFP.

Anyway this site rocks and I'm glad to be back. Looksa like the board got alittle trimming in content since last time I stopped in. At least I don;t have to see Halx's member all over the place, geesh! Do I sense a hint of morals the TFP??? I hope not!

What's up guys, I found this site looking for titties on Fark.com:lol:

I guess you CAN still come for the titties and stay for the people. :D

Hey, a fellow mustang owner! :D (i got a 2002 v6 :))

Welcome to the site...the titty boards are still down now...but they should be back later

Howdy all, I guess I am like SVT01Cobra and so many others as I found TFP via Fark and the titty board. I have found enjoyment from the posts and other forums these days since I don't have the access. TFP is definitely a different forum than I am used to posting in though! Normally there are a lot of cyincal replies to everything, but for the most part here, I know if I post something, it will be taken for what it is and not be made into a joke within 5 replies. I lurk alot, but do post occasionally! I look forward to chatting more with everyone!

stumbled in and glad to be here.

Hi Folks. I'm a newbie for sure so take it easy on me at least at first. I'm looking forward to posting away as the days turn by. I have a irreverant sense of humor so I look forward to eventually lighting it up!

<- add one to the newb count

I'm here...so much to read!!!

Hi, I'm new to TFP. Y'all seem friendly enough...

New here
 

Just registered. Looks like a fun place to kick around.

Some background:
Electrician by trade. Got a journeyman's license in May of 2001, passed the test first try. Went to the Associated Builder's and Contractors convention in March of 2003 and walked away national champion in the electrical competition. Took my master electrician's exam in April and failed by one point. Took it again in August and passed. Not bad for 7 years experience in the trade.

Spent 8 years in the Marines after high school, then did odd jobs here and there for a few years until I found a good career.

Been married to the same great woman for 17 years, have 3 sons together (ages 16, 15 and 12).

Anything I left out and you absolutely need to know, ask. I'll either tell you it's none of your business or I'll answer the question. ;)

just registered a day or two ago. this place seems like a comfortable place to be in. hmm...

yeah. i'm not very fond of sharing my personal things. so, i'll just say a few words here and there when i think it's important (or i just gotta say it =P)

oh, btw... i'm canadian... eh?

Hello out there. I'm at work now, so this will be quick. I'm an old bastard of 41. I enjoy computers (I'm a programmer). I still have all my hair. I'm separated, childless and no I'm not naked at the moment. I'm a male of the species with much affection for the female members of the same species (human, I guess). Has anyone seen my donkey?
