Hi, I'm Joseph Rooks from the internet.

Hi APForums. I hate gratuitous narcissism, so I'll just give you a couple of links about me and let that be my hello. :)

1. I wrote a post this week to introduce One Piece's characters and settings to people who have never read or seen it before. If you've got friends you want to get hooked, I hope you'll show it to them: The Great Age of Pirates | Random Nerds

2. My personal website and my other blog aren't really about One Piece, but they make for a good introduction.

So. Hi, internet! What are you all doing today? (Honest question. Threads that are all about me don't leave a lot to be said!)



(If a mod happens upon this, I'd love to be able to post threads and whatnot. I promise I'm not a spam bot or a tool.)

Welcome. This site had and has a lot of bots lately, so your post didn't immediately stand out. I hope you will forgive. :)
You can make threads or vote in polls if you are a member long enough, or you are active in posting. It is a countermeasure for bots and dupe accounts.
Your sites seem pretty ...extraordinary - so you'll like it here.

I hope you enjoy your stay!

Hey. Here's your welcome basket.

And yes, it's mostly celery and jello.

Very good article about One Piece! You understand it well! I have several items in my arsenal for convincing people to read/watch One Piece [although I always tell them the anime dips in quality after Amazon Lily, then really dips in quality after Impel Down] ("da art'z cartoony lolz" *show them that pic floating around of all the magnificent backgrounds because they've likely only seen the first chapter*). I will be adding this to them!

Other than that, I liked your line about hating "gratuitous narcissism" (which is what opening posts indeed can be), you're gonna fit right in.
