Jesus almighty. No one wants to say hi to me?
Hi n00b
Welcome aboard... it shouldn't take long to find out whether you're going to find what you're looking for here. I dunno about
socialised exactly, but we're definitely gobby, and mostly able to carry on a conversation online (although many of us can't work, have a variety of issues, and I doubt most of us have more friends IRL than we can count on one hand (I have one. I last saw him about two years ago, I think, meh.)
So basically, this place is a free for all. An analogy we like to use is that its a cyber pub for auties - you get the banter, bad language, people being matey, inebriated and/or belligerent, which occasionally breaks out into open warfare. And then there are corners here and there where people who want to have proper gloves-off debates can and do. As a newbie you can't see all the forums yet - all will be revealed when you've made ten posts.
so hi. Have virtual beer.
