Topic: Welcome all Newcomers!

[Ebon Star]

I'd recommend starting a topic in the Project Logs board.  I believe that the blogs section is not currently working, and your work is more likely to be noticed in the Project Logs section too .

Project Logs it is then. Thanks for the warning.

Truth be told, I'm more of a builder/converter than a Painter. Don't worry though, you'll get a chance to see some things man was not meant to see 

Hey this isn't Tinder you know

Builder/converter you say. That is brilliant I am a big admirer of conversions.

Hey folks! My name is Goblin. James Goblin.

I just joined, thought I'd say hi. Warhammer Online (...R.I.P....) brought me here, and in general I find it very hard to play Orc/Goblin-less games.

Are they still making these...I mean, FFS, it's 21st century!

Hi James, Lords of War produce an Orc versus Dwarves card game. I guess if you squint a bit you could pretend that the Dwarves were Goblins.

By Warhammer Online do you mean the MMORPG? Does the fact that you have joined here mean you have taken up playing miniature games?

Don't know if you are bothered by this but I thought I would point out that posts you make in the Tavern don't increase your post count.

Welcome to the site JamesGoblin. 

[JamesGoblin]

Thanks for the welcome!

@Irisado - that textwall of "Don't!...Don't!...Don't!"s seems quite scary o,O

@Alienscar - Yes, I have the ex-MMORPG in mind (my online name belongs to my WAR Goblin shammy). Speaking of post counter, I care of it only if it stops me from having an avatar...as it does, I guess!?

Anyway, thanks for the tip!

It's not scary at all .  What is scary is to find out about it too late, now that is scary .

You need to be a member of newbie usergroup rather than the newest group.  This requires you to make three posts in boards which count posts, so it's pretty easy to accomplish .

Yay! Ding 3!!!   

PS sorry for this 100% off-topic and non-constructive post (and again: yay! hehe  ).

It may seem intimidating, but what the majority of it boils down to is "Don't be a dick."  If you can follow that simple guideline, you should be good.  I would recommend making sure you understand our stance on copyright infringement, however, which is covered under rule #1.

I went through it quickly, including two hyperlinks - is there anything I'm doing wrong?

[Irisado]

GML's just pointing out that the copyright rule is the one which most new members to the forum tend to fall foul of, assuming they break any rules, so that's why we tend to highlight it as being important to read.  You haven't done anything wrong, you would know if you had.

[Grand Master Lomandalis]

I probably could have been more clear, but Irisado is right - you have done nothing wrong.  What I meant was that every rule on that page, except for the first one, can be summed up as "don't be a dick."  If you follow that guideline, you will be alright and shouldn't run into any issue with the rules. 

[JamesGoblin]

Ah, good. I was afraid of it being some kind of a subtle hint that I broke rules No 17, 23 and 355...and that I better figure it out by myself quickly...or else...

[Irisado]

Anyone who breaks the rules is either notified in the post in question or via PM, so there's definitely no need tor you or anyone else to have to figure anything out .

Hi Everybody!  My name is Michael.

A friend of mine that posts here (Wyddr) got me into the a few months ago, letting me try out some different stuff before I plunged headfirst into building my own army.

So, saying hello, and I'll see you in the Ork section.

[Irisado]

Welcome to the forum .

It's great to see one of Wyddr's gaming friends on here.

There are plenty of experienced Ork players down there who will be able to give you advice or just to discuss all things related to Orks with you, so you've come to the right place .

[Roboknee77]

Thank you for having me.

I've just posted to the Orks forum so I hope to get some insight there to help me the next time I go head to head against Wyddr.

[dog_of_war]

Welcome aboard! We're very excited to have a new ork player in our midsts. We may not be the busiest board on the forum, but we've got some truly dedicated members.
