    Sign in here, say your bit, collect your greets, and proceed to the lounge.

    The first page is a bit of a clutter, what with all of the HELLO-ing going on.

    All in the cause of good house-keeping, you see.

    PIN THIS, MODS!

    Also change the name to

    Sara has already done this.

    Perhaps she could re-locate the pin from the Drawing Room to the lounge?

    How 'bout it, Doc?

    I have suggested it before and people felt it would be trashed but in view of the amount of new people popping up in the lounge I think its a good idea. It will be moderated a bit more than the usual lounge threads though.

    Oookay?

    So what's allowed and what's not.

    Is this to be a thread of banal 'welcome to the forum' type posts but not friendly banter.

    If the mods have to use discretion, the thread is doomed.

    'Oh noes!!1! manker is asking a pertinent question that's, strictly speaking, off-topic! What to do!

    Oh usual loungy stuff is fine.

    I will just delete obvious mean noob bashing shit or conversations that have developed about other crap which should really be a completely different topic....type thing.

    Nowt heavy.

    I don't know if accidentaly good and pretty long conversations can be split into a separate topic, in which case I would try to do that but would appreciate the effort in not letting that happen too often...../me goes to investigate.

    Also, I guess once you sensitive souls are happy with the agreed 'way to go forward' then I will delete the discussion.....thereby leaving the thread reasonably pure....
