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

OK I'm here now. Got all the forms filled out. Posted a greeeting on my homepage. Entered my name. Now what? No booze? No sex? No drugs? Is this what I came for? Hello? Or do I have to post my e-mail? Alright its [email protected] You remember yahoo don't you?

Hello and welcome to the guide as moderated by the BBC. I'm Androyd and the ACE bit stands for Assisstant Commuity Editor. My job is to help you as a new/returning user find your way around. If you are a new user then please click on this link:

IF you are returning then I'll just say hi for now. Since some of us have been testing the site prior to opening so if you are worried/unclear/upset by any of the changes then get in touch as quite a few issues have been argued through and I can point you in the direction of where the debate is raging.
Changes are strange and unsettling but they are the price we HAVE to pay to keep this thing going. I still believe its worth it but that doesn't stop me arguing about stuff. So get stuck back in and enjoy!!!

Hi Gravity!

If it's booze you're looking for, here and or maybe you like the heavier stuff?

You can find out how to make those smilies by clicking on the icon and it should take you to a page full of fun little graphics to spice up your conversations.

Oh, and welcome to h2g2! I'm one of the volunteers who go around and greet newcomers to the site (the Assistant Community Editors or ACEs). I also wear a couple of other volunteer hats including which involve editing entries to appear in the Edited Guide.

I'm sure with a name like Gravity, you've got some background on the topic. Maybe you'd be interested in writing up a brief entry on the subject or on your hometown or favourite restaurant.

For details on how to get started writing, check out the writing guidelines at http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A53209

Anyway, if you need any help finding your way around the site, do ask here or by clicking onto my name above to reach my Personal Space.

Cheers!

btw: Sorry I didn't offer you any sex, but I'm happily married. Though I'm sure there's plenty of opportunities for and and and even !

Hi, Gravity!

As I see that you have gotten official greetings from two other ACEs already, I'll just say hello, offer you a , and be merrily on my way.

If you ever want to stop in for a chat, click on my name above this post and you will be whisked off to my homepage.

Have fun on H2G2!

Hello Gravity.
You remind me of someone....

Yeah she reminds me of a girl I used to date in my university days. I thought I was being clever with a string of 'fillies' (3) but it turns out she had five guys actively strung along and dozens more lining up. We all thought she was the all-looks no-brains type looking for a husband - man was I heartbroken when I found out I had been suckered - but it taught me a lesson I have never forgotten. Never trust a woman.

I'm sure there's a compliment in there, GW.

Well at least he seems to have learned his lesson GB. Broken hearted men are liked trained horses. His lack of trust is at least a mark of respect I suppose. That's all I ask of a man, respect. Anything else I need or want I'll just take.

What about friendship?

That's extra,ordinarily.

Do you mean an extra-cost option?

No. Just that friendship is usally a plus, an unexpected bonus.

That's very sad
