    It's not as uncommon as you think. There are, thankfully, other ways to stay cool. Like running fans, hanging out in places with AC, or sitting in a tub full of cold water.

    I'm asking that myself as well... just... I need certain things. :(
    (Sorry, missed your post earlier.)


    I was ill the last two days and couldn't get on the computer. :(

    The day before yesterday it rained a lot as well and mostly we are happy about it, since it hasn't really rained for 2 or 3 months. Just a few drops every now and then, but no real rain, so the famer started to water their fields themselves - and that's not usual in my area.

    But now the sun is shining again. :)

    Yikes, too sick to get online? That's pretty sick! I do hope you're feeling better, though. [:D]

    Yep, I do. Otherwise I would have either posted only "I'm ill, need to go off, green-time for me, bye" and not much more. Luckily I could ask another mod to do a quick check in here and in FFC, so it wasn't that this board wasn't unvisited. ;)

    But speaking about FanForceCommunity (FFC), it became a second WNU currently. :D

    Hmm...that's a faulty piece of machinery you must have bought, Skiara. Were you able to return it?

    I would have loved to return it, but with my "luck" the returned object wouldn't have arrived in time (I'm leaving Germany for a few weeks in a few weeks and need it for that time). So I decided to keep it, since the other parts works and I'll send it in for reparature after that time outside of Germany.


    Edit: And feel free to say "hi" at the second WNU linked in my post above. :)

    *points in the direction where the person stands who suggested the new title*
    Not sure, if you'll get one, but there's the person who made the implication. :p


    Btw, I'm going to close this Party within the next few days (hopefully at this weekend) and start a new party, since this one has hit 10k posts some time ago already (usually I try to start a new thread when it hits 5 to 10k posts - for those who doesn't know). So I think it's time for a good bye party! :D

    Aw, it has to go already? :(

    And why isn't that emoticon available on the boards? o_O We always could use a party icon.

    Yep, I like to keep the threads (more or less) small, so new people don't hesitate to join as much as they would if they see a thread with 30k posts or so.


    Good question! I would love one as well.

    What?! The Party thread is ending?!

    No! My first few posts were all in here! Just when I'm trying to be more active in here.......

    :(

    There'll be a new one. I promise! :)

    And usually I link in the new one to the old one, so you can find it whenever you want. :)

    Do not cry, look forward to the new one! Let's see who makes the first post. ;) :D

    Can you start it on the 5th of June? :D Then we can celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the first Newbie Party! :D

    That's a good idea! But why not starting an Anniversory Party? And having the next real party afterwards? I think the party is worth that extra thread! :)

    What do you think? (Everyone is asked. :) )


    Oh, Paddy... :)

    A ten-year anniversary? How many other Newbie Party threads were there before this one?

    I'll miss this thread no matter what...

    I think we should hold the Anniversary party over in the Teh-Mole Thread ;)

    (Sorry, I had to get one more shameless plug in before the party closed down :D )

    Either way is fine by me... *shrugs* Why not start an "anniversary party" and then re-name it after a while, when the whole ten-year thing has passed? Don't know if we really need to start another new one so soon afterwards, especially if Paddy here gets so emotional every time. ;)


    And Teh Mole can have its own anniversary when it's old enough. :D

    *smiles*

    Paddy, do you think you can stand an anniversory thread that'll be closed soon again? ;)


    Morgaine, you did start the first party, didn't you? Do you want to start the anniversory party? Otherwise I'll ask the newest member in here. I think it just fits, if that anni party gets started by the creator of the first Newbie WElcome Party or by the latest newbie who arrived in here (this thread). :)

    Oh, do you? What happened to the Jedi Code, then?

    There is no emotion, there is peace...
