"Calling all newcomers"

Regulars of old, this is not for you.

If you have been here only a few weeks or months could you tell me your impressions of the Special Reserve sites that first day you arrived here.

Which site did you first arrive at? In particular I would like to know if you were able to easily find what you were looking for.

Your input could be very helpful.

My Lord, Your honour, hath not done too badly when trying to enter thus here community spirit.

my olde English need a lot of improving for me to stop sounding like thy prateth I am when immitating olde English...

Ok, here are my first impressions:

Firstly i came here from the extract of the game-a-day winner on the PC games page.

I looked around at some of the threads and i saw lots of posts by the same people, namely Grix, Ant, pb, shanks, er-no, meka etc etc and i though that there seemed quite a good community spirit here, people wanting to help others out, or just for general discussions.

I thought it would be good to try and join in with this online community type thing so i signed up and here i am.

I just hope i havent made too many of the mistakes that most newbies seem to, but i probably have :-)

Newbies not people from last year....

I've just remembered something!

Weren't we promised a thing where we'd be able to search for other peoples messages by username or title?

It used to be on the right of the screen before changes took place!

Insults only hurt humans. You would be wasting your time.

I know... but I was originally going to write it to insult Sniper, but I thought I wouldn't as it's his birthday and all... :)

Grix,

No - I'm after first impressions.

I think another thing to concentrate on is not only what makes people come to the site... but what makes them want to stay.

Obviously not the company in the forums anyway, that's enough to drive any sane person mad... :D

Ant - are you a regular?

**TOUCHE**

I'm fine thanks.

I have been on for about a year now.

I'm not new. I was never a "newbie".

SR is great.

Hello tony, how are you?? I hope you have lots of sugar for me to steal.

Thanks for reading, Ant.
