Welcome back, Novowels. I recognize your handle. I read it "Nvwls".

Many do!

It's not, though :glare:

Novowels is a name, not a descriptor.

Welcome back, Novowels. I think this is the first intro haiku we've had. :aww:

Glad to be here. Figure I'll answer some questions! :D

1. How'd you find the Freethought Forum?

I've known about it for years, but for one reason or another I've never been compelled to join in. I've had bad experiences before with splinter communities, so just as a knee-jerk reaction I tend to not acknowledge or encourage them. I never joined any of the forums that spawned after the FPF shut down, and unfortunately I wrote this place off far to long as just one of them. I've recently been sorta lurking around and I realized how nice of a place it is, and how many of the people that I liked have moved over here.

So why not!

I've been sorta without an online 'home' for the last couple of years, and I'd like to find another place that I'm comfy, like the IIDB of old or #infidelchat before we got infested with drama (although it seems to be returning to it's former glory).

2. Are you a member of any other online forums? Which?

I've been a member of many fora, but I tend to not participate in more than one at a time. Most of them have either been video game or freethought-related though. Aside from a handful of Final Fantasy XI forums (that I mostly just read) I retain membership (and access to the private forums) of Smash World Forums (http://www.smashboards.com), a forum devoted to Nintendo's Super Smash Bros (http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smash_bros) series of games.

I've also been a regular in the irc channel #infidelchat at SecLife (http://www.secularlife.org) since 2002 or so, and will return as a member of the new forums there if DH ever gets off his ass and implements them. :glare:

3. How do you feel about smilies (emoticons)?

Ambivalent.

4. How do you feel about 3000+ smilies?

Ambivalent.+

5. Is flaming:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
Depends on how it's done. A well crafted flame is a thing of beauty. A crappy flame is worse than saying nothing at all. I don't generally indulge in the activity myself, it takes a special kind of flair to do it, and I need a special sort of mood to do it right. This mood is often not present, and I can recognize that!

6. Is vulgar language:
A. Hilarious
B. Beneath you
C. Irritating as fuck
Just words.

7. Why did the chicken cross the road?

Why do chickens do anything?

8. Who pays for your food?

I do. Unless it's my roomate's turn to pay.

9. What's one thing you've always wanted to do but never have?

Can't think of anything offhand. I'm pretty content.

10. What is your single favorite place in the world?

Bed!

11. What's the significance of your username?

It's mine.

12. What about your avatar?

It's quite nonexistant. I like that.
