Salutations

First off, how should I pronounce 'Yrgen'? I've been saying "yur-jen".

Secondly, useful forum mark-up codes! Replace the curly brackets {} with square brackets [] and the random nonsense with applicable page codes and text.

Bold Text: {b}Be Bold!{/b}
Italics: {i}Be Italian!{/i}
Underline: {u}Have a line under you!{/u}
Strike-through: {strike}Be stricken!{/strike}
Small Text: {small}Be diminutive!{/small}
Hyperlink: {url}thewebsite.com{/url}
Named Hyperlink: {url=thewebsite.com}The Name{/url}
Embed Image: {img}theimage.jpg{/img}
Embed YouTube Video: {youtube=fjpwoi23}
(that would be the unique embed code at the end of a Youtube video page, for example the underlined part in www.youtube.com/watch?v=YelP49e_fZE&feature=fvhl)
Spoiler Tags: {spoiler}Snape kills Dumbledore.{/spoiler}

Now don't ask how you do these things ever! Or else!

Finally,

Also, hero-worshipping Yahtzee? The man's a lounge entertainer. A very funny one but not the authority on humourous critiquing.
Is it so wrong to like someone for what they do?
I am sure you have people you like that perhaps not everyone on this forum would.
There's liking someone for what they do and "literally" dying because you're in the same forum they're in. Never meet your heroes, as they say.
Who says that?
Most people will get the chance to meet their heros, such as a Musician, comedian, artist and so on and so on.
I also doubt he meant he was "literally" dying because someone he likes is on this forum.
Its kind of like how I "Have been dying to see Iron Maiden" live... I would love to see them live, but I am not dead because of it.

Hello there. Dont go in the basement.
Or the closet.

DID YOU TELL HIM ABOUT THE CLOSET?
I honestly never had a problem with the closet monsters, but that may be because of the sacrifices... Anyway... Ahem, stay out of the closet, too. Only a painful and amusing death awaits.
Why are you making fun of my home!and that wasnt suppose to to be gay joke but do as you please.

And hello,welcome to the Escapist full of intelligent people and dont ruin that plz.Have fun,dont be a dick and make a couple of stupid jokes(example A:What i just posted) and have fun!

Yea, and Yahtzee is totally my hero. I wish to be as well articulated as him one day and if he ever were to acknowledge my existence I would "literally" die.
As opposed to trying to addage sarcasm into the Literally, I would've just put 'FIGURATIVELY'.

Welcome dear brother of the Forum. Feel free to browse, ask pertient and not impertinent questions to anyone for any reason.

I myself am a mid-age old member who survived both the 2009 Influx as well as the 2008 Presidential Elections and somewhat regard myself as the keeper of Unofficial History in the forum. Ask me any time about the past of the forums such as "Who was Joe?" or "What?"

Furthermore, you are the 17th new user I've greeted, so you get a free avatar.
I'll be needing a suggestion as to what I should make.

Hey. Welcome.

First may I say....STAY OUT OF THE BASEMENT.

Seriously. You do not want to go in there.

Other than that, don't be a troll and welcome. Hope you have a good stay.
Hey the basement is a fun place full of books and potatoes!
No, it's- Ah yes. It.......is........it's wonderfulllll. Everyone go on down to The Basement, while I fetch my headphones to drown out the screams cookies.

Welcome! :D I hope you enjoy it here. The Escapist is a pretty cool place as long as you don't a.) troll b.) break the rules c.) act like a jerk.

And as a whole, most people here are pretty friendly too. :3

Welcome! Be polite, laugh at the trolls (no-one can ignore them) and just have a good time. If you don't, a team of monkey ninjas will come over to enforce a good time.

Also, I wouldn't call JRPG's and golf guilty pleasures.

Wow. You are 24 and you still call yourself a 'boy'.
But other than your apparent (and slightly disturbing) attachment to Justin Timberlake (may he die painfully), I have no qualm with you.

Welcome to the Escapist.
Heej! Justin Timberlake is cool. I mean, he featured in Jizz In My Pants and made Dick In A Box, that already makes him awesome.

I am Pimppeter2, and I am here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? "No" Says the man at Ebay, "it belongs to the poor". "No" says the Man at religioustolerance.org, "it belongs to God". "No" says the man at Youtube, "it belongs to everyone". I rejected those answers. Instead; I chose something different. I chose the Impossible. I chose. The Escapist. With a forum where the opinionated would not fear the censor (within reason), where the Moderators would not be bound by petty morality, where the Gone Gonzo would not be constrained by the troll. And with the ache of your fingers (and perhaps a new keyboard), The Escapist can be yours as well...

[sub]IdealistCommi's old welcome speech, gone but not forgotten. :p[/sub]

Welcome to the Escapist.
I loved that guy! I wonder where he went, I already noticed his absence for a while now.

Why, hello there. I am not really Abraham Lincoln, nor am I an American.
So yeah, the basement, don't go there etc. etc. Use the search bar and we don't go to Ravenholm.

Welcome!

Everyone here are your friends, we're real friendly, let's be friends, really intimate friends...

Haha! I can tell I'm going to enjoy this place. =)
I'll just avoid the basement for now.
Speaking completely honestly (for once), yes The Escapist is actually a brilliant place. Best forum I know of. Hope your stay is as pleasant as mine, and many others, has been :)

We can tell the officials how it'll definitely encourage people and reassure them that this place is normal....... I think.

Yeah i know right?i'll be down in a moment with the iron madiens cake.
That had better not be a lie Yes that's a wonderful idea!

This is true. But occasionally one wishes to spend an evening without hearing the tortured cries of the curious and foolhardy sounds of happiness and joy, no?
