I've been watching some of the videos on here for a while and decided I'd make an account today! So how did all of you here about The Escapist?

I was brought here by a friend. Well, my boyfriend actually. But I decided to join because there's actually a civilized community here and that's really quite impressive for... the internet.

Just realised my answer states I was brought here by three of the four options. Oh well :p

Hello! There is an official welcome thread where you can introduce yourself http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.66931 but seeing as you're new I don't really mind, it's good to see you're trying to be a part of the community.

I originally came because I was watching ZP on here every week and saw a topic which interested me enough to join and post (something about the infinite) and that's prettymuch it. Good to see you're a part of the community, be polite and nice (don't make picture threads or similar) and you'll be fine. Welcome!

Welcome! Welcome to Escapistmagazine.com! You have chosen, or been chosen, to relocate to one of our finest remaining Internet Utopias. I thought so much of Escapistmagazine.com, that I elected to establish my administration, here, in the Forums, so thoughtfully provided by our Moderators. I am proud to call Escapistmagazine.com my home. And so, whether you are here to stay, or passing through to parts unknown, welcome, to Escapistmagazine.com. It's safer here.

I originally came here because of Zero Punctuation, and since found a thriving and mature community filled with dicussion and hate for trolls. Just like 90% of people here, really.

I was showed the site by quiet_samurai, though the punk will disavow any association with me so as not to tarnish his reputation.

As much it makes me feel like a newfag, it was Yathzee that made me first come here.

However, if it hadn't been for the high standard of the forum I would now have singed up for a account.

Welcome to The Escapist Magazine.

Welcome, I have a feeling that you're going to be one of the better liked newbies around here... Judging by your grammar and sentence structure. Also, your avatar brings nostalgia to many people.

Also, it seems that Simulacrum has beaten me to the official greeting. Curses!

Allow me to be the first to glomp you. *Glomps*

Does your boyfriend have an account here, or was he just a video-watcher/lurker?

Edit: On Topic: I was brought here by the Zero Punctuation videos like 80% of the current members. However, like you, it was the community that made me join.

Hello thar. We hope you enjoy your stay. Now, not to be a correcting little git, but we sort of have a thread dedicated to this sort of thing.

Oh well, everyone makes mistakes. You weren't to know.
