Hey, welcome to The Escapist, etc. Don't worry about feeling out of the loop, you'll figure out the culture here soon enough. My one advice to you: Whatever it is that drew you to The Escapist in the first place (probably Yahtzee), don't watch/read only that. Expand, look at the other shows, the reviews, the columns, the news. Most of the interesting nerdy stuff on the internet gets filtered through here.

Greetings and welcome to the Escapist from the resident Legend of Zelda fanatic (i.e. me). Make sure you avoid the basement, don't feed the troll under the stairs, and follow the #1 rule on this site (i.e. don't be a jerk), and you will do fine.

So...Do you like fish?
Haha greetings Legend of Zelda fanatic. Thank you for the advice :) In answer to your question about fish, I must insist on answering it with a question of my own...
Do you like cheese?
Why yes, I do rather like cheese. Except limburger cheese. Never could stand that stuff. But most other types I like.

Just respect the fact that I am the ancestor of purple and do not deny my fancy feast. THEN we can talk about being gentle.

Cheese is probably my favourite!

I'm new to the site, thought I'd just post this as my way of saying hi :) and I hope to get to know some of you soon.
New guy? Just sit tight while I go get my paddle:p
Are we going canoeing?
You're gonna be up the river without a paddle.
Haha damn. I was looking forward to a good canoe trip where I don't end up without a paddle...ah well these things happen :p

Haha Yeah it was definitely Yahtzee. Thanks for the advice, although I'm a little worried I'll spend too much time here once I start looking at everything else haha

You'll always be welcome at The Escapist. Keep your posts worth reading and don't 'first' anything. Look at the rules, I know you've already seen the Code of Conduct. You seem canny enough but at 12 posts it's hard to tell. Just remember that the users at The Escapist don't take any shit and moderators are swift.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound threatening. As long as you respect others you'll do just fine. Really, that's all you need to do.

Have a good time.

Welcome to the escapist! I hope you acclimate well, and have as much fun as I've had over the years. Please familiarize yourself with the rules.
Enjoy your stay.

Welcome to The Escapist, and I don't know what the basement is either so don't feel bad...

Why don't noobs ever learn that the best way to avoid being treated badly for being a noob is to not announce it. We'd be able to tell from your post count and join date anyway >_>
Why don't people learn that a noob and a newb are two very different kinds of people...

Because homophones are annoying.

Cheese is very good. But there is one thing that beats it...BACON!
