Here's something I's like to say about this thread in general: Don't use this thread to make forum in-jokes or references to stuff people would only know if they've been here for some time. You're basically having a side conversation a newbie won't understand, and right in their face. It's alienating, and makes it harder for them to join the conversation, even though this is supposed to be the welcoming thread.

...I wasn't aware Portal was an inside joke. Sorry.

[up]Not referring to you specifically. Portal jokes are rather well-known. I'm more referring to stuff like jokingly calling Erock gay, and other jokes based on this forum itself. It happens quite a bit.

[up]I'm not sure about you, but I think Inhopelessguy is more guilty of it than most other people. Like here, for example.

That Human: As the Yack Fest Forum Herald I will gladly tell them if they happen to step over the line and are making newbies feel unwelcome. You don't need to do my job for me.

[up][up]Indeed, but I'm worried that it might still go on. And it just looks really bad, when this thread gets derailed to be about some in-joke regarding one or two specific posters. Makes some of us look clueless an forgetful of what a thread is supposed to be about.

[up]Can't I at least help? I mean, it's a volunteer job, anyway.

That happened before I began watching this thread. Regardless, if I think something is getting out of hand I'll let them know.

So, almost a full year late but let's do this!

I'm called O. Noah Bayer and have been posting around some of the forums since mid 2011 (mostly in the anime and manga section). I have read and lurked for significantly longer. I'm a 21 year old male with interests in stage theatre, film, anime, manga, web comics, and table-top gaming. I would love to be an actor but am settled to doing something that will actually earn a living.

Hello, Found this a really interesting place - (maybe too much agrophobia, who knows?) At least media/art makes sense and follows rules not like that crazy world out there. A few things I think should be added, I'll try to get round to it when I think it out. DAR.
