It's always nice to have a bit more information about someone...so that you're not just a username y'know wink.gif

It's not really a rigid layout and you can pretty much say as much or as little as you like, but it would be nice if you could mention...

Any Other Random Info You'd Like To Give! :

You're welcome to share your real name with us, or if you'd prefer to give just a nickname, that's totally fine as well. smile.gif It's just that some of youse have really long usernames so it would help heaps if you could provide us with a preffered name you'd like to go by when posting here.

If any of youse come across any problems or have any questions whatsoever, feel free to contact me or one of the other mods. Or if you'd feel more comfortable contacting a prefect, that's perfectly fine too. We're all here to help!! smile.gif

Have fun you guys and see you around!! biggrin.gif

My, look at that. I managed to time myself perfectly in a very new introduction thread. Hopefully, I'm in the right place.

----------
Name: Reine
Age: 16, although dangerously close to 17
Location: Canada

Hobbies: Watching lava lamps in a daze, day dreaming of what it would be like to fly, and fretting over how hard I have to work in my senior year to get accepted into my University of choice. (No really, I am a fun person... really)
Favorite character: I don't specifically have one, although Harry is always predictable in a happy way. Well, often anyway.
How you came across Veritaserum: To be bluntly honest, I was told you have a nice 'staff introduction' page, so I took a good look, read over your forum rules, decided I thought this place to be splendid, and harked up the energy to join. (It's fairly late where I live... har har x])

Likes: Money, ramen, thunderstorms, (unfortunately) gossip, digital art, and my water bottle.
Dislikes: Chicken, sour notes, large spiders, and multiple choice tests

Any Other Random Info You'd Like To Give!: Unimportant quirk of the day: I speak English and Japanese fluently. Er.. yay. Hello people of Veritaserum. x] So... what's cooking?

Hi HPfan05 and WizWheezes, welcome to the forums! HPfan05, if you really haven't looked at my name, Hermione's my favorite character too. Glad you like Country music too, it's awesome.

WhizWheezes, it's so sweet that you have a son (best of luck to you with all the crying you may have to endure rolleyes.gif ), and that there's another HP fan in the making.

Anyway, please make sure that both of you read the VTM rules (link in my signature), and have a great time here.

(already a fourth one, whoo!)

Hey everyone! Well, for a long time I have avoided registering, but I have finally given in. Here's some info:

Name: Phoenix_Feather
Age: 20
Hobbies: singing, reading, swimming, watching movies, cutting up with my friends
Favorite Character: It's so hard to choose just one. Ron and Ginny are hilarious. Lupin is a werewolf, which is interesting in and of itself. Snape keeps me guessing.
Least Favorite Character: Percy Weasley...he is so annoying!
Likes: music, books, Gilmore Girls, cappuccino, movies, and loads of random things
Dislikes: Like Ron, I hate spiders. Actually, I hate all bugs.
Other Info: um...something interesting...Oh, I have been kissed on the cheek by a Beluga Whale...kinda weird, but still interesting laugh.gif


Well, I think that's it.

Welcome Dani!!

I hope you have loads of fun here. As I read your post I was wandering... Why si it that normally I don't know half the musci groups all of you guys mention?? I feel I don't have any musical knowledge at all... But I'm sure if I started talking about Spanish groups, most of you(almost all of you, probably) wouldn't know any of them, or not more than two or three(at most). So it's not that bad laugh.gif

If you need anything, feel free to PM me or any other Prefect or Mod and we'll be delighted to help you out. If you haven't, please read through the forum rules. Apart from that, have fun!!!

Hi Dani, welcome to the forums!! smile.gif

Just a quick one...I'm going to have to ask you to cut down your signature, mate. You are only allowed an image, or a collection of images, no larger than 400 pixels ACROSS x 150 pixels DOWN. To check the size, right-click on the image and go to Properties.

I'm giving you a chance to edit it because you're only new but please be aware that any future signature violation will result in a raised warning level (where if you hit 3, you're out).

If you have any further questions, us mods and prefects are all just a PM away. smile.gif

Hope you enjoy your stay here, happy posting!!

Look who's back!!
