++alice++ Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 I'm new here, and I've been to may other board and they don't look half as good as this one *signs up* How did you get to this place, and how did you introduce yourself to other members? I think this could make for good discussion, and a history lesson 4 me. I'm alice, nice to meet ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hikaru Ichijyo Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Hey, umm ^_^ welcome to OB, just figured I'd let you in on a secret around here, well it's not really a secret but Introduction threads aren't allowed it's stated in the rules which you might need to look over so you don't get yelled at ;). Maybe though since you followed the introduction up with a good discussion it may live. Well allow me to introduce myself, I'm Rick Hunter resident anime guru of this site and self proclaimed legend. I've been an anime lounge mod at one point here but am currently retired. I really didn't find this place, the owner of theOtaku and this board, Adam had hired my services to do the anime movie reviews over at [url]www.theotaku.com.[/url] So when that section had launched I pretty much was introduced to OB thanks to the main sites success and the anime movie review sections success. If you need any guidence or need to be shown the ropes around here, feel free to ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Asphyxia Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 [color=darkred][size=1]Welcome! I'm Lady Asphyxia. I came here because *drumroll* I got prodded onto here. You'll soon find out I'm one of "Liam's". He's pretty [*snort*] well known. Anyway, when I came, I already knew some people, and then I met the Newbie Lounge. [Yes, yes, I bring it up a lot in these threads, but there's usually a reason for it...] And I knew Rain, Deus, and Soley. Then, people talk to you on Instant Messengers and you get to know each other outside OB. Well, that's how I meet people, at least.

Ravenstorture Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Liamc2 was the first. I was the second. Then Harlequin, Cloricus, etc etc etc. these are all the "downlands/toowoomba" otaku crew. you'll find various threads around. Liam did an english assignment on the boards and I read it and had no idea of what he was on about. So he showed me, and then it began... that was quite a while ago. My name is obvious, too... hehehe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cloricus Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Lol. Excuse Raven she's got some thing about me being the last to join. This [i]isn't[/i] the case at all. (She hates me. :P) Any way, Liam begged and nagged and and and... Well that went on for ages. He got me to sign up to a range of boards and finally this one. (Under the nick Eps.) I posted once or twice and then left for a long time. Then Liam once again nagged and bugged me so I joined and stayed. (Under Cloricus because I forgot the pw for Eps account.) I originally was here just to be an annoyance but I've changed my role to try and be the main tech geek. Also if you have any tech questions post them in the PC/MAC forum for five different ways to fix it plus if you post saying the one was right we also throw in an abuse argument which then gets deleted. :P lol. jking. I'm not sure how I introduced myself. I think I just posted some where saying hi? *Goes and checks history.* Anyway enjoy your stay and have tons of fun, most of us have. :D Eps - I am [i]E[/i]-l[b]33[/b]t!

treton_noir Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 i was lead here by my good friend, Anna and my lovely wife, Tori (Queen Asuka). "treton_noir" is french for "black newt". some friends and i make up weird phrases in foriegn languages when we are bored. my name ensued from one such bout with the boredom monster. i basically stick to the lounge and music, movies, tv area (this is what i know about) and rarely venture into the anime(dont know anything about) or roleplaying(dont care for) areas. welcome to OB.

Soulstone Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Hey there, Alice. As you can see, I'm a bit of a newbie myself, but I am well known by the administrator, James, around these forums. I would like to personally welcome you to the forums, and I hope you intend on sticking around for a long while, and enjoy the threads of pure intellectual conversation. ;D Catch you around.

Tommy Vercetti Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Well i came onto here because most of my friends from school use it for example BigCajones, Break, Alexus_Bing and Zidane. I usually post in the xbox threads and sometimes PS2 and occasionally pc. I also post in otaku lounge and music, movies and tv and if i have a new picture or whatever i would send it into the pictures section. Oh yeah and welcome to OtakuBoards i hope you have a nice time here :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCajones Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 [color=teal]Hi Alice, I'm Grant. My name isn't so self explaining, but there you go. My friend Break (or as most people on the boards know him to be called weh) kind of got me started. He kept sending me the link to OB and at first it was all a blur to be honest, but then Alexus_Bing explained it to me, therefore leaving me here where I am today on the boards. I enjoy to post, so I hope you will have a fun time as well, whether or not this thread is valid or not. Luckily I had my friends on here although I think my friend Karl (sosolidsnake) has been long gone or simply lost. [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 I hate to be the one to bust up a party, but I think this is just a glorified introduction thread. And the part that would make it worth keeping open is extremely cliched. So, welcome to Otaku, but we don't allow for intro threads. Sorry, but welcome all the same. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
