Hi Serephina smiley - biggrin

My name is Feisor and I am an ACE (Assistant Community Editor) at h2g2, (there are lots of us) - I notice that you are the first to post to this page - very clever of you smiley - biggrin

I checked out your space and notice that you've been welcomed by Hornbeck - so I'll just add a few links that you might enjoy smiley - laugh

The "Italics" (they are the people who run this place - so-called because their names are displayed in bold italics - God Bless 'Em) have left a message for newcomers at <./> Welcome-Newcomers </.> it's got a lot of the basic background and how-tos that you will need - a good place to start

Then you can take the H2G2 Tour at <./>A317459</.> to see how it all works smiley - biggrin

If some of the H2G2 terms leave you a little confused, there is a great page about it at <./>A632431</.> (thanks to Dastardly for this great page)

You can also like to subscribe to the H2G2 Announcements page at <./>A639056</.> to be informed of new developments and site news.

And finally, the editors of our own newspaper The H2G2 Post have made up a page of links - you can find it at <./>A616718</.> and then you can read The Post smiley - laugh

Well - that should keep you busy for a while smiley - biggrin I am sure that you will love this community as much as we do smiley - biggrin There's lots of things to see, clubs to join and people to meet - please don't be shy - just jump right in - this is a friendly place. But be careful - it can become quite addictive - believe me I know smiley - laugh

Oh! and , as a bonus here's a couple of hints that might help you too ...

To make the best of this place you need to get out and meet people - it's just like real life - if you sit in your room (your personal space) and just post messages there, no one will see except you - get out and get involved and people will visit you and you can visit them (or not - as you like smiley - laugh )

As you travel round, you will find more and more interesting things.
Do not worry about getting lost, you can always return "home" by clicking on the "My Space" button on each page.
Every conversation you take part in will be listed on your page, these are your "threads". Every time someone posts after you, the thread will be refreshed on your page.
You can then return and reply if you wish.
If you hit the "posted" link it will take you to the last time that you posted in the thread (good for checking what's happened since then) If you hit the "last reply" it will take you to the last post in the thread.
When you no longer wish to participate in a particular conversation, you can click the "unsubscribe" link just below it, and the thread will be removed from your page. Then click on "my space" to return home.

I hope all this helps you make the most of this wonderful place smiley - biggrin

smiley - cheers

Enjoy!!
Have fun!!!
and above all DON'T PANIC!!!

What are you using then? h2g2 will work on Macs, PCs on Windows and BeOS (I know - I've done it), and probably on Linux too. smiley - smiley

You don't need great ideas - I'd just like you to read the things through as I complete them, and tell me what you think needs adding by replying here...

Thanks for the compliment Whoami smiley - blush

BTW - I just discovered that the "Welcome-Newcomers" link in the message above doesn't work - try <./>Welcome</.> instead

Sorry smiley - grovel

It won't happen again - I've just put together a new links page at <./>A719840</.> - my "Welcomes" were getting so long it was ridiculous - I had to do something about it smiley - laugh
