Thanks for the warm welcome. What are some cool things people do around here for fun? I think it's too early for me to contribute to Trope pages.

Depends on where you are.

Here in the Yack Fest, people mostly hang out and talk.

In the Forum Games, they play games that people have made that often use your avatar.

In the media section, people talk about different shows, games, movies, or what have you.

In On topic, they talk about different issues in the real world.

In Role-Playing, there are a bunch of RPG's you can join, even though I've never been able to successfully join one.

And in Wiki talk, they talk about how to fix up the wiki.

Howdy folks!

I love watching and talking about Films, TV, Games... you get the gist.

I spend my time writing reviews and whatnot for an awesome website (not that I'm biased or anything) or wasting my time on here!

I'm 'technically' a new member, but I've been a long time lurker, and decided it was time to make the commitment and create an account[lol]

Hello, Yurtle. Plox tell us more about yourself!

How old are you? Where do you live? Are you human female or male? What media do you consume? How meme-aware are you?

Have fun here!

You're right I'm about to settle this thing! Love Yurtle tongue in real life I'm observed as 'Bob' and 'Petunia' because of some strange first impressions. Now that I've moved in, there's so much to catch up on, as a real, live poster! Aha! Let's get into the third degree! I am an almost 16 (um, years) female from Ohio, US. I consume it ALL! If I'm interested, I'm there. Usually it won't matter what it is, but I'm not a big comic person to books, and I really don't 'do' live entertainment. I would say pretty, but that's only from a certain point of view! Thank you. I love this site, laughing every time.

You don't have to link it, you can just pothole it.

Type in CamelCase.

Yurtle, you can just link to the page in question by doing CamelCase.

So, FlatWhat becomes Flat "What".

You can even do it to pages that don't do CamelCase, although it looks weird.

For example CanaDa becomes Cana Da.

Yes. Go to Messages (click on your user name in the top-right) and then click Maintain PM Blocks and then sort your blocks out.

There should be a 'manage PM blocks' tab in your mailbox for that.

...well then. [nja]
