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

Just thought I'd stop by... Have a mufflewhump!

Wow, Em got here and greeted you quite fast!

And don't worry about insanity--like the Chesire Cat told Alice, "We're all mad here."



My name's Amy Pawloski (but you can call me Amy, or Amy P (there's a few Amys on here) or paperlady) and I'm an ACE, or Assistant Community Editor, and we help out new people, and try to make them feel welcome. Here's a couple of good places to check out, if you're just starting--

Thanks, Feisor, for this: Hints and Links for New Researchers (A719840)

Someplace you can meet a lot of different people very quickly! pheloxi just asks that, if you want to be signed up fairly quickly, you use the "become a member" here conversation: United Friends (A703126)

If you want to be able to tell very quickly when someone has posted a conversation to your space, you can subscribe to your space, and the conversation will show up in your most recent conversations list. Interested? Good Here's how you do it...

Down below the main portion of your space, but just above your journal, there is a set of three links. They look like this (except they are centered, and look like links):

Click here to see more Conversations
Click here to be notified of new Conversations about this entry
Click here to stop being notified of new conversations for this entry.

If you click on the center one, any new conversations will become visible to you the next time you go to your space. (You can subscribe to other people's spaces and to entries, too, and it works the same way.)

If you have any questions, about anything (well, maybe not *anything*--I'm not *that* smart) you can click on reply to talk to me in this thread, or you can click on my name up there in the subject box and you will be taken to my space, where you can learn what a mufflewhump is (since I gave you one at the very beginning)

Lol i've just been looking at my old messages and found that one lurking on my personal space from the bygone era when I had yet to discover how to reply to a message! It really is fantastically funky to find somewhere with so many eccentrics crammed into one place! (it almost makes me feel normal!)

*Kate*

You're having fun then, I take it?

Indeed I'm having fabulous fun, this site is the best thing since mathematics, chocolate, rock music and Shakespeare and the best thing until an equation consisting of the sum of a certain sparky chappy and a pair of lead boots. In other words, I like!

Happy Tuesday!

And, judging by that answer, you fit in perfectly!

Lol the phrase "we're all mad here!" so perfectly describes h2g2 that it should be adorned on a massive luminous flashing banner on the front page of the site!
