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

Congratulations - you have just arrived at the greatest website in all the universe! My name is Nosebagbadger (Nbb for short), I'm one of the Assistant Community Editors (ACEs) who help all of those newly arrived at our amazing guide.

You can contribute however much, or little, as you want to, it is entirely up to you.

Do you want to make some comments on the various entries throughout the guide? These comments allow writers to keep their entries up to date, or just let us know how we're doing.

You could write an entry on a subject that is your passion, h2g2 covers everything from the Isle of Wight to Eggy Bread to the Milky Way galaxy.

A gentle amble around the Front Page gives a great overview of what we are - the most recent Edited Entries, our most popular chat threads and even our in-house magazine, the Post.

Don't worry if you don't understand what I might be jibbering on about; have a look at (A83344313) and see if it can help you find your way around what might be best for you. h2g2 will always have somewhere for you to find your own place, and hundreds of people to help point you there.

In the meantime you could update your personal space, to let new friends know that they've reached the right person so much more easily.

P.s. If you want a quick answer to anything, just reply to this message and I'll get back to you as quick as I can.

Hi nbb

rather embarrassingly I am not a newbie, but a returnee. Only I forgot my password and in trying to get back onto the site, seem to have re-invented myself. If you check the edited articles you should find a couple on Shakespeare's Will and Shakespeare's birthday written by Pebblederook. That's the original me. So i need advice on how to (a) kill my doppelganger, and (b) return to the original. Cheers.

Scrub the second part of the query, I have found out that my password was fine but I had amended my user name a few years ago and forgotten I had done it. Now all I need to do is find out how to kill my new persona off. There isn't room in this guide for the two of us.

Good to see a returnee - even such a self-destructive one

Can you send me a link to your actual PS so I can like that one - it'll (probably) save me from being confused

Anyway, leaving casual accounts is an h2g2 tradition, after all, that's how we invented our religion

I am now even more embarrassed because I have no idea what a PS is.

Unless you are just taking it?

Researcher U14291825 is the real me

and

Researcher U15002056 is the 'new' me that should be put down before I get confused.

Hope that helps.

Otherwise I will just do on the internet what I do at home, and talk to myself.

Sorry - very careless of me to use a non-stated acronym.

PS = personal space, the area tagged as "my space"

http://h2g2.com/user/U14291825

that's the real me, at least as real as I ever get.

Don't fret too much on this as I am back on my original being, and having fun.
