I see a couple nicknames among the posters here that I don't recognize. So, I'm wondering if these are folks who have just generally been lurking around the original site, or if these are people who we know by different names there and have taken the opportunity of a new group to use a new nickname, or if we have brand new people here. So, if we know you by another name, and you aren't in the witness protection program, please share what name we know you by.  |

I decided to use the name Richard calls me sometimes. But since it still includes my real name, it is pretty obvious is am still me.....sorry about that, but I remain pretty much the same no matter what name I use  |

You were pretty obvious, between the puppy picture, Beth still part of the name, and all those stars under your title there.  |

Name change. Poster formerly known as "jeanne" or "jd" will now be "firefly."
I couldn't figure out how to modify this post, so I had to delete it and retype it. Anyone able to instruct me on how to "modify" a post? Thanks.

Hiya, ff. Right next to the "delete" icon in the top right corner of your post is another icon that says "modify". You just click on that icon and it pops up the whole posting box with your original message in it. Make the changes you want and then down towards the bottom to the left there's another button that says "modify post". You click on that and it saves and posts your changes. Or click the "preview" button first just to get a look at how your changes will appear, and if you're satisfied, scroll down again and click the "modify post" button. Any more questions about how to do stuff here, please just wander over to the FAQ or Ask Management section and we can do bunches of them. |

Hi! Betty Pickering is the name, and petty bickering is the game! I'm here at the behest of an old friend and worthy antagonist Peltigera. We disagree on most things except what really counts. <waves>

Hey, Everyone! Thanks for the warm welcome.

And I feel blessed to have the opportunity. I am curious though. Is there a secret decoder ring that I must earn so that I can start a new thread? Perhaps I've overlooked the obvious; that's something I seem to have a knack for... <smiles>

Yes, as a matter of fact there is a secret decoder ring. And a handshake. But we'll get to the handshake later. We only hand out the rings on the third Tuesday of every second month and on a rotation of various hair colours. And to friends of Peltigera's. So it appears to you're primed for the information.
When you are on a "board" screen (as opposed to being in a thread) up towards the top right of the page there are three icons. They are: "mark as read" "new thread" and "new poll" . So, of course, mash the "new thread" icon, and you are off and running.
I really must install new icons for those. They aren't easy to read.

I have a box of filled donuts...
I've been Pax for years. Latin for "Peace." I had the thought of myself as peacemaker and concensussaire, but it's turned out to be more of a guideline than a rule... still working on it. That said, it's a part of me... those few times I get up on the "winner board" on video games, it's "Pax"; when I sign in to Halo, it's "Pax." The only time I've ever deviated from that was when, as a goof, I created a very-tall, very-waif female avatar on Rock Band named "Gusty." :-).

Don't eat the donuts!!!!  Pax has been making that special filling and glaze as long as I've known him online. And, welcome Betty! Anyone who gives Peltigera a hard time is welcome here. ;D Muwhahahahaha! |
