Right.
Erm-
First post on LJ. Ever.

First of all, this journal is intended mainly for all things HG/SS related.
To avoid deceiving anybody later, I'll state here and now that don't think I'll be a very active member of the community: my English is not good enough, and it takes me a lot to write a sentence that makes sense; besides, RL is quite hectic ( Read more... )

Welcome, ihkelele!

First off, your English is beautiful. Seriously.

And second, I hope you enjoy LJ! If you haven't already found and friended GrangerSnape100, you should. It's the sshg drabble community.

I'm glad you're here!

Hello Mollyssister, MoreThanCapsLockFanGirl#1!

You are really terrific at dragging people to join, you know? ;))
[Drats, I wanted so much to put a proper smiley here and I don't yet know how...]

You have already been so kind that I'll strain your patience a bit more and ask you a question related to LJ netiquette: how is 'friending' done? There are already so many people there, whom I've been following since January -actually, the last Exchange is to blame for my present addiction-, but I would not impose by adding them to my flist without their prior consent - I mean, that's NOT something a well behaved grown-up would do in RL, is it? Any suggestions? Thanks a lot!

*hugs*
Lela

I am happy to help! I remember well my newbie days. It can be a bit overwhelming huh?

Regarding friends the polite thing to do is hop over to their journals and introduce yourself and ask if you might friend them. In my experience you will be welcomed with open arms.

Thank you, Mollyssister, for the info!
Yes, I feel more than a little worried, if not overwhelmed. Luckily I used to hang around the Usenet, so at least I am aware of the Netiquette basics.
Nonetheless, I'm sure I'll make a lot of embarrassing mistakes: I can only hope not to harm or offend anybody but my pride :))

Yay! I see mollyssister has dragged another SSHG shipper aboard! Welcome. I hope you have fun exploring LJ. When I started, I found this page very helpful:
http://www.livejournal.com/support/faq.bml

If you have any questions, please ask. It seems somebody always has the answer.

Normally I would ask if you mind if I friend you, but since you are a faithful SSHG Quiz player, I'm just going to jump right in and friend you first!

Actually, you girls do know how to make people feel at ease and all cosy!
Thank you for friending me and for the veRRRy useful link to the FAQ index -- I already managed to spend an hour there instead of working... or preparing dinner, since it's 8 p.m. already, YEP!

Hi ihkelele, and welcome to LJ. I know you will enjoy meeting all the neat folks here. They are wonderful and eager to help. I'm a bit of a newbie (less than a year) here myself.
I have found the best writers and stories here, and I know you will, too. It's a great place to be!

And your English is great, so don't be shy on that account! 8^)

... as I was saying, short comment: even shorter than intended (it's 5 a.m. and I'm afraid I just went back to sleep over the keyboard)...

Ooops... I did it again: posting a message before it was finished! (see, Mollyssister? mistakes over mistakes!)

Well, here's the rest: Hope you don't mind if I friend you?

I think you'll like it here, virtually everyone is very friendly and helpful.

Thank you very much! I've kept it as sort of a trademark icon. ;)
