Just signed up, first post

Hey everyone! I heard about this forum on Reddit. I am 21, and I never used any forums growing up. I've only ever used popular social media platforms, and so I was curious about a place with a tight-knit community with less toxicity. I've only looked...

Welcome, this is my 5th day here.
It has been quite an adventure so far, met some nice people, some not so nice.
One advice, scan people's profile first before you reply to their sudden DMs. Had 2 bad episodes with that.

Also sometimes people will ignore you on their posts, for whatever reason, just shrug it off :)

@SW-User That's so cool there are other new people here. I've already gotten some weird vibes from some profiles too lol, but I just decided to not care. I've noticed that too with the ignoring, I guess it's just cause we're new and no one recognizes us. I've tried to just be conversational, but I still feel like I'm butting in on other people's space considering everyone knows each other here. But I'll keep trying and in the meantime, it's nice to meet you :)

@toomuchlove Yes you're right, it might be because we're new. Also yes they all seem to know each other and it feels a bit odd when we try to butt in on the convo.

I hereby declare we form an alliance of newbies and march forth with honor and pride! Kidding.
Nice to meet you too :)
