    *STAR WARS THEME MUSIC*

    Hi, my name is ZEM. Yes, those are my initials. No, I'll not tell you what they stand for. ;) I have already made a few posts here on Jedi Council Forums, but I decided that it is always a good idea to make sure you introduce yourself. ;)

    I have been a fan of Star Wars since 2007 - but don't let this fool you, I know A LOT about Star Wars. Before I ever watched the films, I read all about how they were made, listened to the soundtracks etc. (I am now a HUGE fan of John Williams music). And I have followed the new The Clone Wars series. I am a big fan of George Lucas' Star Wars Saga. I don't like the EU very much, but I still read some and I do enjoy the new Clone Wars series. :)

    I have edited on Wookieepedia (500 and some times...), I keep up with the latest SW news... I also was co-admin on another Star Wars forum for a time, but then realized I was doing all the work for the other guy and quit. :oops: I am now a mod on yet another Star Wars forum.

    I'm not big on sci-fi and fantasy (I watch some Star Trek and ITV's Primeval series), but the Star Wars films are very powerful.

    I hate Harry Potter and related works, just for everyone's information.

    Other than all that - most importantly I am a follower of Jesus Christ and hope and pray everyone will be able to tell. And I am an administrator on several Wikias and Forums. I also have a blog (ZEM's Projects Blog), a YouTube account (maddogmuttz) and I am working on a top-secret Star Wars project of my own.

    BTW, this place looks great! :)

    Edit: Locking because of being upped, although it's an old introduction thread. Feel free to ask me (Skiara) to get it unlocked again. :)

    Hello there ZEM!

    I will tell you, that even though they might be your initals, that is a mighty cool name. :cool:

    I'm JJJ. Good to see you here on our part of the JC.

    I see by your previous posts that you have found the TV show forum and the PT froum. There is also a forum for the OT, located here. There is the Star Wars Community found here, where you can go and talk about the general Star Wars movies, or just have a little fun in some of the social threads there.

    Speaking of social threads (if that is your thing), don't forget to check our social thread here in the Welcome New Users forum, the Welcome Newbie Party.

    You said that you liked John Williams music, so you can check out the Star Wars and Film Music forum here.

    From the main page, you can find different regions of Fan Force communities... check and see if you have one in your area if you would like to meet some Star Wars fans near you face-to-face!

    And I can relate with you for only being a fan for a few short years, but yet knowing so much. I became a fan in 1999 after I watched the OT in my basement. I then learned all that I could about Star Wars. In 2002, one of my fellow Fan Force members was suprised to learn that I haven't been a fan all my life, since I knew so much about Star Wars!

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask! I know joining a new forum is daunting, but we're here to help you get through it! :)

    Welcome ZEM! :)

    As JJJ said above, it's a really cool name - especially it's made of your RL name. :D

    You're very busy with other forums and blogs. Wow! How do you manage to balance that work load with your RL? I mean, you have other hobbies as well, don't ya?

    Enjoy your stay! :)

    Can I call you Invader ZEM? :p

    Welcome to the forums. Try out the links everyone else posted (as well as the forums you've found) for some good Star Wars discussion.

    If you ever get bored of discussing Star Wars, you can hang out in the Jedi Council Community, the only place where WDNDSWITJCC. Just remember not to take everything they say seriously. It's a fun forum.

    You might want to spell the abbreviation out, Kotor. ;)

    I just realised that this abbreviation wasn't listed in the glossary until two minutes ago. ;)

    And YSLCATGOT got my attention as well. Is that one still used? Ok, wrong thread, it just crossed my mind while typing the line above and adding the other abbreviation to the glossary, which you can find in the header btw. :)

    Thank you everyone for the kind welcome! :) Its good to know that you care about your members here - some smaller forums even overlook people as if they were to big to notice. :)

    Sometimes the balancing act is difficult, but I manage to find time for my favorite projects and hobbies. ;)

    Thanks for the welcome! If I ever feel like I'm falling to the Dark Side, I'll take a look at your "Sithly" organization. :D

    Yep, that's one part I dislike at most forums. Some don't even have a welcome board and if they have, you rarely get any reply. :(

    That's why I love it here. We do care! Not just here but at every board you go to. :)

    So enjoy your stay! :)

    Gunny, do I have to? You're not my moderator, after all!

    I must be behind on times, because I've never heard of someone dying after saying those words.
