Ok, it's late, I'm bored, and curiosity has gotten the better of me.

Since our little newsgroup "family" has seemingly increased
significantly over the past couple months, I'm curious to know how it is
all the "newbies" managed to stumble upon this little slice of AW. So
for all you new people, (by "new", I mean people who just started
posting here after November 1st, 2000) please humor a goober and reply
to this thread explaining how you found the newsgroups. It'd certainly
be more refreshing to read than flame attacks, don't you think? :)

I found the newsgroup about 6 months ago, from the link on Mauz's website.
I have no idea how I found her website though. Acauly mabey I do, since her
website is in relation with all the AW pictures (like for doors), I think I
stumbled to it, hehe...but now I'm getting sidetracked.

I found the newsgroups quite a while back on the Activeworlds website. I've
mostly just came in and read the posts and stuff, just to see what was going
on in AW from time to time (and to see what Eep had to say, I like his posts
:-p). I just starting to post this week actually, so, there's my story...

That works too if you already know what the object is going to look like
before you make it.

The year went by so quickly I have no comprehension of time and length of
whatever I started, but I think I started posting here halfway through this
year. :) I think I just got bored and more into AW so I started searching
for newsgroups on it. :) I can remember taking hours trying to figure out
how to confiure my Outlook to read it however. :) I believe I also posted
within two weeks of just observing the newsgroup. :)

Don't you just *love* it when people don't read your post? I said people
who started posting here *after* November 1st, 2000. The only people who
should be replying to this thread include, but are not limited to: agent
fox mulder, ananas, berserker, captain mad mike, crazy glue il, grimble,
joeman, kah, lanezeri, rocknrollwoman, the derek, tony56, trekker, and
twisted horizon... Not people who've posted here for 6 months, or a
year, or whatever. I just want to know about the *new* people. Is that
too much to ask?

*rolls eyes* jeeze, calm down, it's not that hard to look over a post...

Dec 31, 2000, 11:21pm

I started posting to community within the past *counts days* since 12/16.
How did I find it? As a result of my joining other newsgroups: I've been
posting in worldbuilders, bots, and sdk since November '99, and found them
because of my world and because I was learning to program bots.

Ahh ok... wasn't sure. I was just scanning names of people who posted
after that and saw yours. Yet another reason why people shouldn't change
their names so often. ;)

Wasn't I around before November first?
Well, anyway I was bored and looked in the help tab for what they had put in
there and I found a NG topic. That interested me so I tryed it and liked it.
I also post to Andras' NGs ( news://news.andras.net ).

KAH
PS. If you wanna know it all, I use MS Outlook Express v. 4.72. AND I'm KAH
and not kah (that the stupid news server calls me).

Me? I can't remember exactly, I think I was browsing the AWCOM site and was
bored so I decided to set up Outlook on these ngs.
