Greetings, Newbies :) Say hello here!

[catwhisperer]

Clare or someone, hey could someone please PM me with the passwords for the members section and the wanderers section???

[Min]

Hey Catwhisper - for the members section, you need to be an established member, with a number of ober-related posts to your name and a couple of other things. For details, please read this thread.

[catwhisperer]

Thanks for that- okay. i'll get there eventually:)

Hi All newbies!!
Welcome toObernet!!!

[shinigami]

*sneaks in quietly with Ashling in one hand, typing with the other*
Erm, hi I'm shinigami... the name's been had for years. Otherwise known as Cat (in that scary place that is the "real" world).
Read Obernewtyn and the Farseekers YEARS ago! So I forget about it apart from brief nostalgia... until my mate gives me his amazon wish list for his bday present. All of a sudden i remember and go hunt. Forgot how cool it was and now im hooked again. Officially sulking because I can't get hold of book 4 but will send mother to fetch when she goes to australia in october.

So yeah, i joined today. Apparently I'm a wanderer... but im very confused at the moment.

*runs away and hides*

[Elspeth]

Welcome to Ober.net, good Shinigami! We're in the middle of a muck-up week at the moment, so any confusion you're feeling is quite natural. It'll be back to "normal" next week.

If your mum's coming here in October, it's possible she might be able to pick up the final book in the series, The Sending, as that's when we're hoping it will be released. So that could be very good timing indeed.

[Talmina]

Hey shinigami. I was really surprised to see your name, as a friend of mine uses shiagami as one of his screen names.

As a newly elected wanderer ward, let me welcome you to our wonderful guild and present you with a never ending pack of timtams. (which will probably need an explanation at some point since I see you're not an aussie...)

So where are you from anyway?

If you need any help dealing with the confusion, feel free to pm me.

[catwhisperer]

huh??? I thought i'd just posted a message here but it went away! Anyway, welcome shinigami, to Obernewtyn and the Wanderers guild. i'm new too and i love the wanderers guild. they're all awesome, and there's tim tams everywhere! By the way, guys, what is Moonfair, and what is all this about meets??

[Rilla]

Hey Shinigami! Welcome to the Wanderers! *waves*

Catwhisperer, to modify your post: there is a little button on the top right hand side of your post which should say "Modify". Click it
Hopefully, that shall help

[shinigami]

I'm in the (not so) sunny UK. Near to liverpool... where I must be off to now to play with chemicals.
*grumbles at morningness*

[Squirt]

Welcome Shinigami!

It appears you arrived at the right time! You didn't get a strike for not being a fabulous Dreamie.

Enjoy,
Squirt

[Dark One]

Welcome Shinigami! Hope you've settled right in. Don't worry about all the squirrels. The pest exterminator should be here soon

[shinigami]

see, i was wondering about the squirrels...
as long as they're not hallucinations its cool beans, coz squirrels rules. Apparently they have squirrel boxing matches over the best food, but next time someone tells me that i'm demanding video evidence (or at least a ticket for the next bout).
Still slightly confused... do I get a password to the Wanderer's board or something?
Gah I need to stop being so hyper and do my uni work so I can finish Ashling tonight.

[catwhisperer]

When IS the pest exterminator coming? This is getting kinda annoying... what an invasion!!!

[Arctic Firefox]

I think the Dreamies have got until the end of the week. Hey, at least it's better than the place being decorate with Valentine's Day rubbish!

[Rilla]

Shinigami! You're not meant to like squirrels! You're a Wanderer!

I've sent you the password by email. (Yay, new Guildenish duties )

[Siryn]

Shinigami, Hi!

Dont worry, im thinking about setting dome baits for those pesky squirrels:P

[Squirt]

Squirrels are far too intelligent to fall for baits!

[Min]

Capital plan Siryn! Try hiding it in the chocolate mousse!

Welcome, Shinigami
What does your name mean btw?

[maverick]

yes, what does it mean? *scratches head* [we really need a smiley scratching it's head techy people!]

wilkommen Shinigami! hopw you enjoy - don't be too pertubed by the squirrels .... i came in antelope season. gah!

mav

[Cookie Lover]

Griting to al ze little new memberz. I am yor friendly Cookie Lover. Iv you hav any problemz come to me and I wil help fix zem up.

[Siryn]

Cookie? whats with the ZZZzzzzzzzz?

and if memory serves, Shinigami is, like, the Japanese God of Death or something, yeah? anyway go discovery channel!

[catwhisperer]

That is a really interesting name, Shinigami. i didn't think that much about mine though it suits me. i just realised... squirrels are ten million times better than valentines day garbage... that's true. but still, i'd like to be able to write 'timtams' without it being changed to 'moudly biccies' you know!

[shinigami]

i only like red squirrels.
not grey ones. grey ones suck severely.
and yes the nick is a japanese god of death en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinigami
apologies for terrible grammar, i cant be bothered tonight. I'm having a fed up day.
There's a lack of new random insanity today. hmmm.
*thinks people have been kidnapped*

[catwhisperer]

Ha ha... your grammar's fine. i don't think 've posted very many messages at all that don't have typos cos i just couldn't be bothered editing!!
