Hi, welcome to the boards.

So, basically, there are a few things I tell newbies.

1) Try your hardest to use proper grammar, chat speak bothers a lot of us on here.

2) When you post about something, it's better to KNOW what you're talking about. Especially on religious or political threads. If you don't actually know or believe what you say, you'll get jumped on pretty quickly.

3) A lot of people here have been regulars for a while, so of course there's friendship bonds. If you stay here for a while, trust me, you'll make some wonderful friends.

4) Long term threads (Rack up your posts, Twilight thread, Harry Potter, etc) have some really great people in them. Don't be intimidated by all the posts, don't be afraid to join in with the discussion!

5) We don't talk about just Disney here, obviously. We discuss our problems, current events, politics, religion, movies, excitments, etc!

6) I'm glad to have you! We love new people and I can't wait to see how you contribute to these forums. :)
 
Welcome!

i'm shelby. i've got a lot of posts. stick around and you will too.
use proper grammar, and don't be stupid and you'll do fine.
as an ex-trouble maker who got banned before getting banned was cool, follow the rules. they're here for a reason.

welcome.
 
Hey hey! Nice to meet you :)

I'm sort of fairly new myself, but I can tell you the people on the DIS are lovely.

If you need anything or fancy a chat, just PM away :)

As everyone said, use proper grammar (which includes capitals, puncutation marks and no chat speak).
And all should go well.
And don't pick fights.

Now that I think of it...
No.
I kind of meant like...
If there's no punctuation, the lack of capitals makes it frustrating to read.

Thanks everyone!

Sara:cutie:
 
Ps: Don't type in all capitals. It annoys us all.

I agree...totally.

But, hi. I'm Patti.

Uh...yeah. That's about it.

I have no words of wisdom to impart upon you.

Just a word to the wise: HAVE FUN! Don't be afraid to be yourself at all. Just be relaxed and get to know people. It's worth it, trust me. While I may argue with some of the people on here, they're friends anyway. And Shelby's the little voice in the back of my head that tells me when I screw up royally.
