h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

What's there to do?
Hello people! How's it going?

hiya I am new too not sure what you can do around here
how did you find this site?? I am
an escapee from the Leisure District site
I have had browse round but I am sure I must be missing alsorts of fantastic stuff
whats your name where you from age hobbies ect??

Hi guys, so what's this leisure district site - it seems a lot of newcomers around here are talking about it? Has it shut down or something? Did you know this site shut down due to bankruptcy earlier in the year The BBC bought it and saved it!

If you want to see some of the best places to go on site I have a help page at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A543791 that might be of some use

Hi I am Abi and I am the Deputy Community Editor, any questions just shout!

A good place to meet people and share arcane knowledge is ask h2g2 - http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/askh2g2

Have fun!

Oi, just watch my turf mate

hiya again you asked what leisure district was well its a site I can
access from my digibox or by going o [URL removed by moderator]
theres chat rooms games ect on it and theres been a few
users given details of this site which isprobbably why we are all having a nosey around.
I have played round on this site bit but hink I need to spend a while checking the different aspects of it

now now people stop falling out between
yourselves I need all the help I can get around here !

We're not falling out Just a wee jokey - unfortunately you seem to have fallen foul of the moderation system here - unfortunately you can't post URLs outside of the BBC's website in the forums here. You can post them in article however so a good workaround is to create a links page and just post a link to that in the forum

HI SO AMI DID U SAY U R IN THE LEISURE INDUSTRIE WELL IAM MINNIE (JUST ID NAME BY THE WAY) WELL IAM INTO FUNKY MUSIC WHAT ABOUT U?

2 RIGHT U TELL THEM SMILER U TEL THEM

Hello Researcher 184533

If you need any help finding your way around, just ask . I recommend Orcus' welcome page - he put a link to it up there somewhere.

*points upwards*

A good thing to do at this stage is to write a few words in your personal Space - don't worry too much about which words because you can easily change them later on.

U don't get out much do u

Welcome to h2g2, Researcher 184734.

Yes welcome Researcher 184734

(Nice one Amy )

A warm welcome to all! I hope the fact that a few people could be a**ed (<- self moderation!) to say hello has got the message that h2g2 is a generally welcoming and pleasant palace. (Meant place but left palace in there - it's just about worthy of that). The best way to get to know h2g2 is to do exactly what you're doing right now!

Whoami?

well no one has bothered talking to me yet but maybe thats because I'm a Bowie fan. Everywhere I go it's like a stigma. It's like
Person:hi,
Me:hello,
Person: what type of music do you like?
Me:I like David Bowie
Person:okay

End of conversation. Person walks off forever thinking I'm slightly weird being that I'm only 17. Anyone else get that with other Bands or Musicians? Or is it just me?

Hello

You are not alone in your appreciation of David Bowie. One way to find other researchers with the same interest is to type David Bowie into the advanced search http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/Search

But before you do anything else, edit your personal space so that it says something about you. One sentence will do - you can change it later. By writing something in your personal space you enable other researchers to come along and leave friendly messages.

Have fun on h2g2 .
