Oh thank you! And it makes sense, kind of....

but LOL when did "in real life" ever become IRL? Is it soooooo harddddddddd to type that.

meh i think its just cause its fewer characters... somethings are so stupid but its a hard habit to break

but yeah 'in real life' i meant to say

Im not much good at meeting people cause im not real comfortable talking at all let alone talking to people i dont know (note i dont have a speech impediment or anything, I just am not comfortable talking)

If there was a single thread for introductions, I probably would have added a post to it, but starting my own whole thread seemed like overkill.

Well, it was sorta my fault. I didn't read the rules first. Then after like 5-10 posts or so I finally thought to read the rules. Meh....rules are made for us to break.



Had I known me threating to kill would provoke people more to look for mine. I wouldn't have said anything. I fail.....

you should go over to the speak or die thread and kill anyone who doesn't want to speak. You would be doing them a great favor,

Yes, just saying a bland welcome... looks incomplete.

Nah, didn't feel any need to introduce myself. D:

E-chan, your monkey pictures are so adorable *loves&steals*

And yeah I welcome some people there has to be some welcomers, or else those sad new members will remain sad new members...

I've never posted in the welcome forum. For myself or in reply to anyone else. I find it kind of useless.

Only useful thing that I've found about it was to know what types of people were coming up to post, if they weren't scared away. You have to admit that the regular posters aren't exactly...tame...

But some of them have become regular posters, so that's good.

No Intro thread here, either. I guess I didn't know what to say and wasn't sure if I was going to stay, and a little shy, too.

Well not at first, but after a year or something, I did >.<

Not sure when or where people started using IRL, but its pretty common in online games and what not since there are times when what your saying can be either online or irl. Like if i was to say on a game or something that someone else on the game is my friend IRL, so people know your talking about someone you know face to face rather then just online. But yeah its because its used quite offten that people shortened it, different areas online have there own shorthand, if you ever played a fast past First Person Shooter that is multiplayer online, you often dont have much time to type out what you are saying so short hand becomes quite usefull. such as saying u instead of you.

I dont know what u mean that its hard to type irl. much faster to type something with no spaces then it is with 3.

I was thinking about it, but I didn't since I had no idea what to say. ._.;;;

Some just say hi.

Boring, but it works.
