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

Just a note to Welcome you to the ranks of the ACEs

When I started I found <./>A573833</.> So you Want to be a good Ace - to be a really good place to start as it sets out the "conventions" that we use.

I have made a "Hints and Links for New Researchers" page at <./>A719840</.> you are more than welcome to use it at any time for your Welcomes if you find that it’s useful.

If I can help in any way just drop me a line

Feisor

Thanks very much

I've read vegiman's page...its very good!

Will probably lurk around researchers who have already been ACEd to see what other ACE's said...and in the email I got it said something about an extra forum... where is that?

There's an ACE forum at Yahoo - the email should take you there - it's for ACEs only.

I'll check...but I didn't see it ...nope it mentions it, but there is no link

I've left a note at the forum - help should be with you soon ....

Thanks very much

Ive left a message with Verbal, someone new, at F97592?thread=206526 I was wondering what youthought [be nice ]

FwT

I think it's very good

I know you won't mind if I make a couple of suggestions ....

1. Don't be surprised if you DON'T get a reply - most newbies don't answer - some don't return and I think others think it might be an automated message this is not a recording ... not a recording ... not a recording


2. I think the h2g2 Tour is really good - but it's very long for someone who has just started - that's why I made my "New Researchers" page - why not give them a few quick start links as well - maybe the Posts List of Clubs, or Ask H2G2

Hope you don't mind these hints ... keep up the good work!

Thanks very much!

I asked for suggestions, so thanks for giving them... I'll add them to my retinue [do you have the A-numbers by anychance?]

Not off hand - and I'm actually off to w*rk now so can't look for them.]

You can always use my"new Researchers" page if you like - it's all on there - the A number is in the first post in this thread ...

Got to now - am late

will do hope you weren't too late for work.

No - unfortunately I made it on time - the things we do in order to eat

I have greeted someone earlier, and used your page...I like it

Eating is good

I'm really pleased that you like the page - I hope it helps ...

BTW - when you leave it you should leave it as a link - just type < ./ >A719840< /. > (without the spaces) it shsould look like this <./>A719840</.> - Makes life a bit easier for the newbies

I didn't know that: I just thought the link was automatic...

I love it when I can pass on something useful

Some links work with words - like < ./ >ThePost< /. > <./>ThePost</.> but for most you just need the number

Let me try....

'I just received <./>ThePost</.> through <./>ThePost</.>box....

Woohoo!

Thanks Feisor!

[anything on the yahoo site yet?]

No - maybe you should drop Mina or Abi a note ... Just on their page should be okay

Will do...

I've left Abi a note, but there's been no reply, so I will go have a looksee on Mina's page.
