Hi Sky!   D42 here.  I gotta find a new home.  I tried to do the shoutbox but couldn't figure out how to post it.  Duh.

Hello Aliza.   I gotta say, they have a much better list of smillies here so that's a  real plus.

Yeah, and some of the old ones too. So there's that. They also have a nifty feature that alerts you if someone quotes you so you don't have to do a search for your own username if you're too lazy to comb through unread posts. That's a handy feature.

That's a great feature.  What the hell, it's it like 1:00 AM in Florida?  You must be a night owl.

I'm very much a night owl! I do my best work at night.

Hi Outta.  Yeah, some people kinda pop in from time to time so they won't know what happened.  TTA just disappeared.   It would have been nice if Seth had given at least a couple weeks notice, like when you leave a job.  Well, whatever.  I'm sure there's a few more people who will wander over here.   I'm kinda shy so it will take a little while to get to know people here.  Gosh-golly-gee.       <-----that's my first smillie on this new forum.

I just noticed that you have 13 rep points.  Have you been here before or did you bring a whole bunch of food to bribe the staff with.

I also see you've brought your guy with the hair on fire with you. Nice job!

So many new immigrants.

That will teach staff not to approve my budget for a wall!

Another refugee here...I was Loom on TTA, going to be using a different name here. I'm glad to see familiar names but I'm looking forward to meeting the people here. I hope you guys won't mind putting up with me!

Ahhh This is going to be so much fun!!!

Like one giant party!!

Another nice thing you guys might like is that we don't allow for negative reputation here. And generally if you give one, you get one. Once I see a bunch more of you guys, I'll go on a repping spree

I was banned from TTA, I was Foxen over there, but I'll try not to hold any animosity toward you newcomers.

Whoah, I had no idea TTA was shutting down, I'm sorry to hear that

Welcome all you guys! I hope you enjoy the forum

Sad to see TTA shut down. Good to see familiar people. Where is the gun thread?
