I think that's the best answer to any question of any introduction post I have ever seen, and I gladly welcome you to the site. The past few introductions have been a bit drab to say the least..

HavelockV · 03-24-2009, 09:42 PM

Why thank you for your kind greetings, Mr. Nigma.

Terry Pratchett is a brilliant writer, and I do hope he pulls through his condition so that we may yet see more Discworldian tales from him.

I often find that Mr. Holmes is an astute commentator on life and am glad that you enjoyed the quotation.

Kind regards.

Mr E Nigma · 03-24-2009, 10:09 PM

Yeah, he's said he'll write so long as he remembers he can.. haha

And yeah, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is probably my second favorite author

HavelockV · 03-25-2009, 10:58 AM

Duane · 03-25-2009, 03:22 PM

Unimatrix,you're worse than any of those "mean" people.

Unimatrix 00 · 03-25-2009, 04:12 PM

Please don't listen to him HavelockV.

Sir Canvas Corpsey · 03-25-2009, 04:18 PM

Uni, he wouldn't have said that if you didn't say there were 'mean peeps' and Duane... you're getting annoying again.

Welcome new one, will you be attempting to keep up that charm of yours throughout your stay?

Unimatrix 00 · 03-25-2009, 04:22 PM

*Blushes and pulls at collar* How very, forward ... of you, Miss Louise.

And Sir Corpsey, I shall endeavour to remain as amicable as possible during my travels here, unless I am suitably provoked, of course. *touches brim of hat* Pleased to make your acquaintance, sir.

Unimatrix 00 · 03-25-2009, 06:16 PM

Hehehehe I think I'll enjoy having you here HavelockV. x

And yeah, I've been told that I'm quite forward. A bit too much sometimes >.<

Felreaper · 03-25-2009, 06:31 PM

Oh the roleplay sound of your dialect... anyway, good to meet you, HavelockV!

Sir Canvas Corpsey · 03-25-2009, 09:24 PM

Luckily for this gent, he doesn't tickle my fancy at all.

Gives me more time to obsess over other men instead.

CrimsonPythonidae · 03-25-2009, 10:59 PM

Hi there, I am pleasantly surprised to meet somebody else who shares my high opinion of Arsenic and Old Lace, a classic film and personal favourite : )

Welcome aboard capt'n!

JCC · 03-26-2009, 04:50 AM

I hate it when people say things like "*I touch my hat*", it reminds me of when I trolled a cybersex chatroom.

Sir Canvas Corpsey · 03-26-2009, 05:06 AM

Wow JCC, I am so taking back that reputation point, that's so incredibly childish.

Edit: if it'd let me, but I need to throw around some points to others before I can.

gothicusmaximus · 03-26-2009, 05:37 AM

So, OP, are you like, role-playing a Victorian gentleman? Are all we Victorian age role-playing in this thread?
If so, I call I get to be from India.
*Sepoy mutiny*.

We will allow you to claim India as your own as long as your ivory shipments continue uninterrupted, but we are a bit worried. The last time you came to the supply station you removed double the usual supply of ammo and only half the needed food--and now there are these disturbing reports that the natives are worshiping some new white god.
