Welcome to The escapist I hope you will enjoy your time here

Welcome.
A few simple rules; follow them and you'll be fine.
I am god here.
Don't be a jerk.
You shall worship and obey me.
The mods are here to help you.
You shall at every possible opportunity, try to garner my favor.
Use the search bar when creating threads.
Hunt down and destroy those who oppose me.
Obey all the forum rules. (This is sort of covered under don't be a jerk, with the exception of the advertising rule)
Fetch me a milkshake, for I thirst. Mmm, milkshake...
Don't feed the trolls. (If you see someone posting a trolly thing, report and move on. Don't respond in any way, not even to mention you're reporting them. Someone disagreeing with you is not trollish)
Always aspire to my example.
Have fun.
I am your god.

*Bows down to the almighty Souplex*

I'm a bit late to this thread but since I'm here I should warn you about the crazy ponies and the extremely passive-aggressive anime fans. Other than that, welcome. Hope you stay.

Welcome to the passive-aggressive pseudo-intellectual utopia.

Hi. By making a thread you're already going to get 80 times more friends than me and probably have a better experience here for it. Enjoy.

Welcome to The Escapist.

Just don't be a dick and everything will be fine.

Also, on a more personal note, please don't make any threads with the words "faith in humanity" in the title. If I see another one I may actually cry.

Welcome! I'm new here too, but I like it already. It's better than a lot of the forums I used to go on. Also, some advice for a fellow n00b: don't press the red button unless you're ok with Justin Bieber for 24 hours.

Too much Bieber! Make it stop!

Welcome to the thing.
Don't be lame, watch your spelling and grammar and don't indulge in that 'kawaii ^.^!!1' otaku shit because seeing that onscreen makes me want to punch some LCD.

Enjoy your stay. You've chosen a nice forum.

Heya Sir. Welcome to the Escapist.
I remember when I first joined the Escapist, I made the same thread you have and got the same answers too (as you can read here).
Also, due to an awesome coincidence, yesterday was the 1 year anniversary of me joining the forums.
