Hey, got a spare bed for a wanted fugitive?

[fredsicle]

Well I guess "wanted" wasn't really accurate.

Ok. 17 year old SlayAlive noob needs a watcher.
I don't eat much, I'm fairly neat, I don't make on the carpet.
Who wants to adopt?

[Secret Scoobie]

Hey Fredsicle! How are you! YAY!!!! Great to have you in training little miss slayer!

You sound like the perfect pet... er, I mean watchee! I'd love to adopt you
My name is Jess and I'm a 20 year old student/retail assistant!

PM me (or post in this thread) any thing (questions, comments, chattiness) whenever you're ready! How much experience have you had with forums, any particular area you want help in?

Tell me a bit about yourself.
Hobbies? Interests?

[fredsicle]

Um.. Little miss? I'm a boy.
Thanks for wanting to adopt me
Lets see. Name of Joe, but everyone on my old forum called me Fred.
I'm a senior in high school, been a Buffy fan for about 4 years now. I enjoy reading, acting, writing, dancing, Facebook, and listening to music. I watch at least two episodes a day, I'm on another marathon actually. Reptile Boy is next, I might skip it
My favorite Buffy character is Willow, my favorite Angel character is Fred. I don't do Tru Calling, Firefly, or any other Joss shows. I'm gonna look into Dollhouse next, though. I ask a lot of questions, so during my first month or so, I'll be asking a lot
The boards are a litte confusing but I'm sure I'll be slaying (posting) like a pro in no time.

OH I am sooo sorry, I just looked at the name and associated Fred with Winifred and thus female I really should pay more attenion to the gender part of peoples profiles! hahaha.

So Joe/Fred HI! lol. It's so awesome that you watch Buffy everyday. That's great! Any particular reason you don't watch Firefly and or Dr.Horrible? Have you seen any of them? I think most Buffy fans are suprised when they find themselves like Firefly (put off by the whole sci-fi/western thing) but it really is so awesome. And definately give Dollhouse a go! It's not the same 'humour' as all Joss' other stuff (Buffy/Angel type humour) but it's so very clever and really cool... plus Eliza Dushku!

Got any questions at the moment? You seem to be doing well (in that you made this thread and have posted a few times!)

Anything in particular that's confusing?

[fredsicle]

Is there any way to view all the threads at once? I think to look at all the topics individually you have to go to the forum for that one. It's kind of confusing.
And does the forum use any skins? Or is this the only one?
My friend tried to get me into Firefly, but it didn't really strike my fancy.
I've never watched or seen anything of Dr. Horrible, but I guess I can give it a try.
And Dollhouse, I'd watch anything with Eliza Dushku.
I saw Bring it On the other day because she was in it with Glory

view all the threads at once? You mean like a big long page of threads without the topic sections and that? Then nope! They're organised in sections to keep the board neat and tidy and so you know where to look for specific conversations. What you CAN do though, is "bookmark" any threads you find that you want to keep track of (like this one) see at the bottom and the top of this page there is a "bookmark" button next to search on the left hand side? Well if you click that in the threads you want to, then you can easily view them all together later by going to 'Profile' up the top of the forum (next to Calender and Log Out) and on your profile next to 'Modify Profile' is "Bookmarks", click that!

I favourite that page in my Internet Explorer 'Bookmarks' (confusing but I hope you get the gist) and then I come straight to the 100s of threads I'm following at the time to check if there's been any replies while I'm away! Make any sense?

Firefly is slow starting. I didn't fall in love with it until about 4th episode. And by the end I was obsessed! And Dr.Horrible is really short so definately give it a watch one of these days!

BRING IT ON is awesome. I love that Eliza AND Claire Kramer are both in it. Beautiful girls!

Skins? Well this forum's layout changes MONTHLY thanks to our awesome moderator CowboyGuy (He makes new skins wth the current comic covers) right now though, the forum is featuring the winner of our Layoutarama - this one is made by Santiagom, and will be up for a week.

There are a few other options for the skin, but they're not 'officially' worked on layouts, they're just the basics. And you can find them by going to the 'Profile' button up the top, and then modify profile and then go down to the drop menu for layouts/skins. But I'd reccommend staying with the official one because CBG keeps it fresh and changes it often!

Hope that helped

No that's great Sky thanks! I forgot about that I use it all the time!
