Subject: Thank you for the invite & Hello from an old newbie

Hi there,

Onepaperkid invited me to this site. Kangi, thank you for keeping the connection alive so to say now that OPK's computer is dead. Please let OPK know I'm grateful he suggested I visit here. Tso, thanks for your consideration. Kathy, kiitoksia paljon ('thank you very much' in Finnish) for helping Kangi to get in touch. (So, it was a trashcan lid that rattled when you showed up? I thought it was some part of the tank ;o)

Before I decided to sit down to write this, I took it slowly and spent a good while observing this forum to get a grasp of the rules & policy and its atmosphere. I see as good as only familiar names here. Though I may not have spoken to all directly, there's nobody here I ever had a problem with (the few that bothered you have bothered me too) or got a negative impression of. I know this feeling might not be mutual. All people can't like everbody. But as I noticed: in case people here have very differing opinions and tastes, that it is dealt with in an adult way. I'm prepared to stick to your rules, including the privacy function not ever to tell anbody about the address of this site nor mentioning its excistance or anything being said in here.

Before I got offline at the end of June this year, I told a few persons in private that I'd be gone from the other board for quite a long time and that I doubted I'd be back as the pace and the atmosphere there had changed. At that time I didn't know of this site and I felt quite sad that I had to go away from people I like. So I appreciate the invitation here and hope not far too many disagree to that I was asked. I'll do my best to keep it a peaceful place to come to, where people can relax and talk without physical appearance being the the only thing that matters. Like I said, I stick to your rules and I don't think it'll be too hard for me. You've seen me before (just like I've seen many of you), not only as clown. If I hadn't had what it takes to be allowed to be here, I suppose wouldn't have been concidered at all in the first place.

Sometimes I tend to write kind of long postings, ahem, so I'll just stop here for now and hope you're all doin' just fine - Ylva
