The Welcome Thread: Newbie introductions; departing and returning members

Welcome to Entmoot!

In an attempt to tidy up the board, we have decided to consolidate all "welcome threads" into one official thread. Newbies are encouraged to introduce themselves here. Also, people permanently leaving the board or returning after a long absence may make a note of that here.

For the new user, here's some helpful links:
To post a message in this topic, hit the "Post Reply" button.

So, let the welcoming begin!

Please note: if you are leaving or returning, please do not use this is an outlet to vent about the admins or other users. Such comments will be removed. Please only post about a departure if you will gone for six months or more.

The return of Afro-Elf?

Hail my fellow sojourners!

It has been quite a long time since I last posted here.
To the old crew greetings.

I have since returned to the States after my years of nomading. However, I am getting restive ( sounds like the opposite doesn't it) again. So, I am considering the Peace Corp this time.


Anyway, I am back because I need some cerebral stimulus. So I am going to start some threads that will hopefully generate some discussions.

Oh, BTW I will no longer be posting in the Tolkien forums. The movies killed the thrill. I will probably avoid the DIRECT theology debates also. Besides there is no other god than Beard of Pants ( Sheena)

Again hello,

Nice to be back

Welcome back Afro-elf! I joined shortly after you went off nomading, but hey, you're famous around Entmoot!

Were you just living in Japan?


Also Mods can you please leave this thread open until people stop positng in it? I think Afro-elf has earned it.

All hail the mighty afro-elf! Send sacrifices to the altars in thanksgiving for his glorious and safe return to the land of Entmoot. All hail!

Hey, Nurvingiel. I do recall the name. Actually I was nomading when I joined the moot. Japan was my last stop of many.

Hello AE! Good to see you visiting again.

(If anyone's wondering why this thread is suddenly so short, we were nearly at 1000 posts so I split the thread)

Over all, of course Canada and The States, Colombia, Sweden, Greece, Turkey, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Australia,. I guess technically you could add N.Korea, Kuwait, Cambodia, and Denmark.


Gwaimir Windgem,R*an,Eärniel, Thank you very much.
