Hello everybody! I'm new here, I only heard about this forum a few times before when I was doing research for my book, but I never actually got to make an account and join the threads and stuff. But I finally did it and I hope it's the right place for me to just learn new stuff and have a fun time I guess. :) Does anyone have any tips they wish they knew before joining this forum? Like how to get around and meet new people? Thanks, have a good day! x

Hm, tips I wish I'd known before I joined...

Oh, wait, I got one. Some threads, especially ones that are mostly social, feel like they're for insiders only, but they're not. Join in and you'll be welcome.
