This forum discussion revolves around the humorous initiation rituals for new female members on the PF forum, characterized by playful banter and the symbolic use of fish as a welcoming gesture. Members engage in light-hearted teasing, referencing various fish types for different anniversaries, such as flounder for the first month and carp for the sixth. The conversation highlights the camaraderie among members while also noting the tendency of new users to be overwhelmed and not return after their initial post.
