PSA Welcome to MetaCouncil!

[Noytax]

Heya everyone!
Thanks for accepting me! Mostly been a lurker in the forums i've been in, but i'll try to be more active here. This seems like a really nice place

 

[PossiblyPudding]

Thanks for the welcome!

I've been a long time lurker of both GAF (previously) and Era, but never bothered to actually register to either. I think the last time I seriously spent any time engaging with a forum was around 2005 on a White Sox board.. for a total of about 60 posts.

Hopefully I'll be able to change that and be a little more active here. I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Welcome everyone

Sad it took yet more drama and mod/admin stupidity to get people here but it is what it is

Well, I actually had no idea about this place until drama so there’s at least a silver lining for me!

Thanks for approving my registration so quickly. Glad to be a member of this community and happy to see a lot of familiar names!

... and welcome to Lethologica, Myradeer, TowerGuard and 213372bu too! glad you decided to join us here ... hope you'll have a good time

 

[Prodigy]

Welcome everyone. Lots of new folk today, wow.

 

[Lethologica]

Hello. Thank you for the quick approval. I was a lurker in the PC-Era threads and it was sad to watch it slowly unravel over the last year or so.. Seemed like almost every step of the way the mod team zigged when they should of zagged. The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry, and all that.

Here's to new beginnings!

 

[Kylac]

Hello everyone! I usually end up not posting much but maybe I'll finally change that.

Anime avatars should be mandatory tbh

We are all changing to Subverse waifus when it releases anyway

 

[Trifrost]

... and also welcome to Trifrost and Solaris! good to have you here ... hope you'll enjoy it in here!

Thanks lashman!

I've been lurking here for a bit now and pretty much exclusively lurked for years over at GAF/ERA, but after the shitshow of the last few months and now Jase leaving that was pretty much it for me so decided to register today.

I just want to read/talk about PC gaming in peace.. so hey everyone and thanks for the welcome.

that's what we all want to do in here ... hopefully

and WELCOME!

Is there a simple post/thread about how this place got started? I have to admit that I hadn't ever heard of it until the recent explosion over in the PC Gaming thread on Era.

and just as a reminder to everyone - i know ToS is usually boring and no one reads it ... but this timer on registration is there for a reason

so please, please, PLEASE read ToS, as this forum runs on a different set of rules from most others ... just so you understand what's happening and stuff

Heeey! Thanks so much for the approval and welcome! Mostly a lurker from the other forum (named Kirie over there) glad to be here!

I'm glad they were able to sort it so quick for you.

 

[xinek]

Thanks for the nice welcome! I was mostly a lurker at the last place (there are now two "other" places now lol), but I'll also try to contribute more here. I'm really looking for a home to discuss PC gaming stuff without incoherent "moderation" or 10 year olds constantly posting memes. Also, I heard anime is banned here.

 

[hamsterstyle]

Thank you very much for the welcome! I'm definitely not used to having accounts approved so quickly I've been mostly lurking, here and on the other forums, but it seems like an opportune time to start changing that! Very happy to be a member, junior grade

 

[lashman]

Thanks for the nice welcome!

no problem and welcome again!

but I'll also try to contribute more here

sweet!

I'm really looking for a home to discuss PC gaming stuff

that's what we're all here for but not just PC stuff ... most of us in here play on consoles as well or even read books (the horror ... THE HORROR!)

constantly posting memes

do gifs count as memes? i like posting gifs

Also, I heard anime is banned here

yes, correct ... it is the law! ... well, it's not written anywhere (as far as i'm aware) ... but i'm sure everyone would agree animu is DEFINITELY banned here, lol

it seems like an opportune time to start changing that! Very happy to be a member

very happy to have you here! also - LOVE your avatar!

Well, here you can freely talk about PC topics that usually get people worked up, like emulation, without being called a pirate.

But, with the good, there's always a bad.

These forums have a bit of a shlooter problem, right Gevin ?

Very happy to be a member, junior grade

You can change that tag to anything you'd like in your profile.

 

[Myradeer]

Thank you for the welcome! It`s nice to be member of a kindred community.

no problem ... and welcome once again!

 

[Dekunator]

Hello all! I tend to lurk on forums and did so on PC-Era but after the stuff that happened earlier today I don't think I'll be lurking much longer.

 

[hamsterstyle]

very happy to have you here! also - LOVE your avatar!

Thank you!

Oh wow, even as a junior? That's awesome!

I totally read books! I also play on Switch and PS4, so there.

I'm actually too old to make this judgment, but I don't think gifs count as memes.

yes, correct ... it is the law! ... well, it's not written anywhere (as far as i'm aware) ... but i'm sure everyone would agree animu is DEFINITELY banned here, lol

Good. As long as that's true and that I'll never have to see "SEE STAFF POST" again, we're all good.

This is so nice. I've just started getting into emulation a bit, and I'm looking forward to learning more about it.

 

[lashman]

that's awesome ... because we actually have a book thread too!

Community - Book club - What are you reading and what have you read recently

After a couple of years of not reading anything other than Books related to my field, I started reading "The First Law Trilogy" few months back (recommended by Schnitzelfee) which i loved so damn much. Now i am kinda obsessed with buying/reading books, especially dark high/epic fantasy ones...

sweet ... we're good then!

Good. As long as that's true and that I'll never have to see "SEE STAFF POST" again, we're all good.

it's impossible for anyone to make a staff post here, there is no staff, lol ... but there is crowd moderation in place

This is so nice. I've just started getting into emulation a bit, and I'm looking forward to learning more about it.

ohhh ... someone should totally make a general emulation thread ... that would be sweet ... i don't think there is one yet

 

[xinek]

I know, because I read the ToS!! Breath of fresh air for sure.

 

[lashman]

good to know at least one person did, lol

 

[RedMercury]

Hello everyone! I need to figure out my avatar situation here,

 

[Luminaire]

Oh wow that's a lot of people - Welcome!

 

[Katsyo]

Cheers for the fast approval and thanks for the welcomes.
