    In the dark, shadowy corner of kboards messenger, Paul Bellow commanded me to join these forums, to share in the glory and bloodshed or forever be hunted by the agents of darkness.

    Or, so I remember it. It was probably much brighter, involved a computer screen and crumbs of whatever I was eating.

    Regardless, here I am! I'm John (as per the name over there) an avid gamer across all media (CCG, TabletopRPG, Warhammer, video... whatev...) for 30 years now. It got its claws in me and never let me go.

    Even now that I'm a father, a husband, and occasional f**k-up, I still find time to game, to teach my kids gaming and now... bringing that passion to fiction.

    I'm tickled pink to be here and look forward to meeting all of you lovely people.

    Greetings. You were on Kboards? I've heard of that place, usually spoken in hushed whispers, voices quivering in fear.

    Or was that about the anime shipping Reddit? I forget.

    Sorry, my blood alcohol level has dropped to the point of almost sobriety. I'll have to fix that.

    kboards is a terrifying place.

    And careful with that blood alcohol level—gotta stay nice and hydrated. Google advises at least 6-8oz of alcohol per day for proper inebriation hydration.

    If RPO doesn't count, I'd have to say Reboot.

    Welcome to the insanity, tea is served all the time. Make sure to wear your hat, don't give the door mouse any sugar, and above all move down!

    I normally try to think of something clever to say when welcoming new people, but there’s no beating DJ. So, I won’t even try.

    Welcome John! The world needs more people named John. Always glad to meet another one.

    It's good to have you John. I can tell, just by your name, that we'll be enemies. :)

    At least it's transparent. Better on the battlefield than in the shadows.

    Don’t listen to @Dustin Tigner, @John Rickett. He has vowed eternal warfare against all Johns everywhere. He must be destroyed.

    I like to start it off right. We all need a little awkward in our life. Like starting a conversation with the guy taking a crap in the stall next to you, weird and strange, but after they leave it makes me chuckle.

    @James G Patton ah, you’re one of those guys who walks past the 18 empty urinals so he can stand right next to the guy at the opposite side of the room. Then, right after you unzip you ask, “‘Sup?”

    I don’t know whether I’m more disturbed that I guessed correctly about your urinary habits or that you had this GIF sitting on ready just waiting for a chance to use it.
