Hello. My name is Rane and I'm a newb. Those who know me from MP.com already know me. Those who don't will get to know me eventually.

Good to see you again, Rane!! I just joined here myself. Too much BS on MP.com for my taste right now.

On a side note, I love the layout of this site way better than MP.com and the moral is so much more uplifting. Great to see alot of other MP forumers here as well. Diggin it so far!!  :metal

Actually, there's not much BS right now. But there's not much of anything right now. That board is as slow as it's ever been.

More people migrating from MP.com? Looks like... when it Ranes... its pours!
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Hello, new here. Was a MP.com member from virtually the beginning (Softball35). Honestly just got fed up with what appears to be the BS over at MP.com, specifically Mike's lies/BS. From scanning the threads and posts, this board seems like a much better fit for me now.

My name is Andres. Is it weird to think I may have been waiting to join here for forever? Waiting for all of your eyes to hold my posts in comfort no creature has ever known. Even though I barely know any of you I am here. If you ever feel like this place is pulling you under then leave your body at my doormat and I'll take you far away. Our bodies can wait like forgotten shells on the shore of memories discarded on morning runs to infinity as we tour the astral plane. We'll search for all that is timeless rest in places that have never known company and TP God's throne. Am I crying? You're all so beautiful. Fill the tub of your hopes with my tears and dry yourself with the woven complex threads of my love for you. We are everything.

We welcome you with open arms, for it brings us pleasure to meet you.  Feel free to mingle and get to know us as we get to know you. 

I do not speak for the entirety of the forum when I say 'I do not intend to rape you.'

Cheers.

I think that's a very good thing to stand for as long as you extend the same respect towards men and those who claim no gender.

The fact that I am a regular poster and a happy member on a male-dominated forum should kinda prove the fact that I have huge respect and love for men.... and any gender...

Out of curiosity, what's with the green stars, yellow blocks, etc. under peoples usernames? Lucky Charms?  ;D

See, the forum's existed in many incarnations over the years, and if you have them, it means you were a member of one of the previous incarnations.

I think.

(I'm probably not the best authority on this, what with having no Lucky Charms.)

Green means you've financially donated to the forum.  Honestly, I'm not sure of the difference between the stars, blocks, or bars.  However, the quantity of them is described here.

Stars are for donating too.  Blocks are for us normal peeps, the more you have, the longer you've been here, and the bars are for mods and admins.
