View Full Version : The Hello Thread
Well... PF 3 is here.
(somewhat belatedly [;)])
So, what do people think? Who's back? Who's new?
Announce yourselves here...
Hello hello. I'm back, sort of... I was alis before. :)
Back too.
I guess most of the people that joined a lot will be back soon.
BTW, what is the story of the new + in your nick FZ+ ?

Hmm... The +?
Well, it philosophically places an undefined addition to my username, suggesting that the name is only a part of all the concepts it encompasses, and that what is significant is not the name itself, but that which surrounds it which is significant.
Or, it suggests the eternally cumulative nature of scientific endeavor, suggesting that there exists always a plus for everything. Our sum of knowledge is never complete.
Or, it suggests a wistful feeling at the inevitability of change, that to progress, we must improve. And hence, the uncertain plus implies the idea of sheer undirectly evolutionary energy that is present in life.
Or maybe it's just because PF3 has an annoying thing about usernames under 3 letters. [;)]

I like the plus however, shows evolution!

PHP rocks.
This forum rocks.
Ganshauk rocks...oh wait.. I'd hate to be immodest.
Ganshauk rocks immodestly!
I feel like I just got a new car and am still checking out all the killer gadgets on the dash. The only thing missing is that new-car-smell. Oh well, maybe PF 4. [:D]
I love the new look. Great work on this Greg.
Hello all. It's good to be back.

Why do people keep moving and not telling me??!!!!

Ohh ... that is really sad (for the members with (Extremly) short nicknames [6)]
Why such a policy is applied in your opinion (is it some kind of usefull ?)

HEY EVERYONE!!!!! WELCOME TO PF 3!!!!!!!!!!
hehehe I have wanted to do that for days!
Well I dont know if i am going by Nicool002 anymore... as you can see I was under it but that was when PF 3 was on the test site and it wont allow me to login now that we are on the official site. But the mentors dont seem to be having any problems so I will see what Greg can do about it.
You rang?

This is sooo cool; people move their location, and I hunt them down. It's a lot like cyber-stalking![6)]

I LOVE PFS! Of course, I'm here (good ol' Majin!)!! Anyhow, this site, to my surprise is just like www.scienceforums.net, where (yes I'm there too, with the same username). But better, because we've got the coolest, most intelligent dudes and duddets here.
I, MajinVegeta, vow* not to ever leave PFs.[:))]

BTW: Is Alexander here too? I didn't see him. Or maybe he's left us!!??[:(]
I was Sivakami .... Siv ... still am Siv. The atheist lady from India, super-skeptic ... whatever [:)]
Used to be an avid poster ... but lately have been a bit tied up with work. Hope to remedy that soon.
Like the new PF. Too bad about the reset post count, though ! Hard to switch from "Hyper Wave" to ... nothing !

SivaKami, the atheist.. my goodness.. siva siva..
Yeah! Nearly a week, several attempts and two emails later, I can respond to posts again! (Slight problem with my registration verification code I think, either that or they have read some of past responses and were trying to keep me out [:)] )
Hi everyone. The new site looks good. glad to see you all back.

BH reporting for duty,
Greetings and salutations to all.
Hmmm,
I think from what little I've seen that we will have better speed and more features with this forum. I'm right in the middle of doing some important stuff and doubt I will be able to remain active though.... at least for a time.

Hi Drag,
Thanks for the greeting! [:)] [:)]
I'm pressed for time so it may be a few weeks before I get back to the swing of things. This forum is still quite alien to me but with some practice it may begin to feel like 'home' again. I will check in by and by 'till I get myself situated and have more time.
I noticed a number of members took a fast jump in their post counts. Do you suppose I will ever catch up? [:D]

I have a ton of reading to do if I am to catch up with all the stuff that has been posted in PF3 already. Isn't it is a good feeling to have a community such as this one? I think it is.[:)]

I wonder if Alexander will join the new PF. I hope so because around Christmas time I enjoy hearing his stories of Santa [:D]
