    Okay, whoever's in charge of the roster here at the moment, I have now released my adoptee Lord_RJ into the boards to go off on his own. I'm sure he'll be fine! :D So I can now be put on the free oldbies list for Asia/Oceania. I frequent Literature and EU Community, mostly.

    Thanks. :)

    I fulfill the requiorments to be an adoptor... but I have one question that maybe somebody who spends more time in the book section of the JC could answer (cause I haven't found it anywhere else) Does the JC have a "book club"? If so, can you pm a link?

    Stridarious: I now also visit in the Fan Force (USA - Southwest) Phoenix Arizona forum. If you could update that onto the list, that would be nice.

    Thanks. :D

    • Jedi_Learner: Is it a good change or a bad one? 8-} I just went about and changed the color schemes for the older list was still in the old banner scheme. And I know that usually the list flows along with the banner so I changed it. However, I am only updating the list to be sure that Dan is not overwhelmed upon return.

    I am not quite sure about this but everyone tells me that I need to "go get myself adopted." It seems like a good way to meet and get to know people so here I am.
