Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Hey Forumites!!

This is a space for members new and old, to gather around and help make our newer members feel welcome!

We've all been newbies ourselves at some point, and can empathise with how incredibly daunting it can be entering a new space. A lot of folks have trouble even knowing where to start, and (even though we're in the midst of improving it all) we know the forums can be a tricky space to navigate - which can make it very difficult for newbies to be able to find their footing! On top of that, joining any established community means being 'the new kid on the block', and seeing others connecting easily with established relationships can sometimes feel like we aren't welcome, or that we need to 'break in' to the conversation somehow.

Well this space aims to alleviate that pressure and help facilitate some new connections! Whether you're brand new here or you've been here since the very beginning, you're welcome to come hang out, meet some new people, reconnect with others, and maybe even make a new friend!

We will try to tag new members as they join, so help us make them feel welcome!

Here's today's newest forumites:

@tyme

It's a rule I gave myself about 5 months ago when I fell into another hole. I knew if I didn't make myself, I'd be back at square one again, so it's the one thing I can always do nowadays. Morning walk every day, unless it's thundering cause.. no thankyou haha

Ouch!! Yeah definitely don't envy you there hehe, our unit is out front thankfully, but this lil cutie always finds something in the backyard to destroy anyway.

Oh I'm glad you were there too! That was a close one for sure! We don't have a pool but we've had a few close calls with one of our dogs (the smallest of course) trying to follow the cat behind furniture and getting herself caught in cords. Thankfully she has this distinct bark that let me know something is up and I can go find her. She's always wagging her tail when I do.. she'll give me grey hairs soon I'm sure.

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

@AnxiousDuck ooo Arcane!! I just started ep 1 a few months ago and then got distracted by other recommendations. @Jynx you've watched arcane as well right!?

i'm definitely going to continue it once i finish off Spy Family (recently got into anime). what other shows do you watch?

In response to: Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

@AnxiousDuck @rav3n sure have!! Arcane is AMAZING!! Gut punch of a show haha. What's Spy Family? Never heard of it!

In response to: Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

@AnxiousDuck @Jynx now i've got Arcane and Buffy to binge this year, i'm so excited to binge them!!

Spy Family is about a spy who needs to create a fake family to accomplish his mission... but he doesn't know that his fake daughter has the ability to read minds and his fake wife is an assassin... it's pretty good so far.

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Hey @MoreHope ,

Great to hear from you.

How was your day today?

What are some things you enjoy doing?

In response to: Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Re: Newbie's Social Club - Come make some friends!

Hey @tyme,

Had a good day heading away for a few days with family.

Sometimes I enjoy reading (mostly sci-fi fantasy). I llike watching similar shows as well and some gaming.

Did a little star gazing last night and got a bit of a glimpse of the comet. Pretty hard to see but still fun.

How about you?
