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

i'm a newbie!!! just look at my space. ok show me how kool this forum can be. talk 2 me about anything!!! YES ANYTHING
OK.....go

hey! and welcome to H2G2 (or HooToo as we often call it round these parts) So where you from? I'm in.... vaguely sunny Cambridge UK at the moment... You've not had a visit yet to your PS by an ACE (assistant community Editer), I'm sure one will pop along soon with a bag full of helpful advice on finding things on the site and good places to go... but for the meantime how about a or or

"i'm a newbie"

So were we all, once. Shortly an <./>ACE</.> will leave a message on your page to give you your official welcome to h2g2 (or hootoo, as we often call it). Till then, your welcome here will have to suffice. You'll fit in shortly.

<./>Welcome-Newcomers</.>

For one thing, try to type in proper English and to use some punctuation. Your Personal Space says that you're a fan of Douglas Adams. He could write. U42 Most people here are fans of Hitchhiker's, but h2g2 is not actually a fan site.



"show me how kool this forum can be"

Well, for a start it's more than a forum: a place to chat. It's also a place to write Entries for the Edited Guide and the UnderGuide.

A4135772 - Gnomon's intro to the Edited Guide.
Writing-Guidelines - For the EG.
Writing-Alternative - For the UG.
<./>RandomEditedEntry</.> - What do you think this is?
<./>RandomNormalEntry</.>
<./>RandomEntry</.>
<./>Browse</.> - Options 1, 2, and 3 bring you to bits of the EG, option 4 is a bit strange and includes the UG.
<./>UnderGuide</.>
<./>FrontPage</.>
<./>NamedEntries</.> - How do I do these links?
<./>Smileys</.> - That's pretty cool!

Good luck! And have fun.

whoooo thanks for the advive mate. I'll try to use punctuation, but i can't promise anything about the proper english! So far h2g2 is great (or HooToo as few said people around here call it). Having lots of fun!
once again thank you!

I noticed that an <./>ACE</.> (Intern, to be precise) has left you a message at F4909033?thread=3370517. Read and reply: it's only polite. And he (?) should be able to give you a hand to guide you around the Guide.

Glad you're enjoying yourself!

oooh thanks for the welcome. so far its great. hope to talk to you later!

Hi.
When you are finished perusing the guide-stuff as such as you will,- and as much as ye like... there are some corners and places to this site about how to make various things using the code(s)-here.
One of them is called Guide ML.

Some of the forums here have games on them,- such as word games, rhyming things, and even an odd text-RPG,- or several, I think.

Loads of things, and all sorts of stuff. The nice thing is... you can add things to it.
.




When you do get an ace, you can probably ask him or her about GuideML,- mine helped me out on that when I was new here as well.
They can help point you in the right direction on a few things.

Hello from Canada,
I'm still a newbie still as well. I've only been on for a couple of months, but everyone has been great. All you have to do is ask and someone will give you an answer. They're all very nice when you need a helping hand.
Let me know if you want to talk, I'll talk to you too if you want. I live in Winnipeg Manitoba to start.
Anyway take care & have fun !
