And a tall ship. No idea why.
But here's a newb secret: get rid of all the really weird gifts by giving them away again! No one really notices, and no one really cares. But still, some of the stuff is quite nice. You'll also get several packages on your birthday.
Hi, everyone!
I'm Giratina, resident newbie to this place. I've been writing and reviewing fanfiction for various fandoms since around 2008, and by the looks of this place I think we can get along well. :D (Some of you may recognize me as the owner of one ridiculously oversized Pokémon fanon universe which goes by the name of Arceus' Archives... you probably don't, though. XD)
Welcome, new friend! Have a Shadow on a leash and a Griseous Orb, though you may have one of the latter already, if your username is any indication. :)
Yeah, I have stacks of those things sitting in the back room Dx
Thanks for the Shadow, though! :D
Have a sonic screwdriver and a bag of jelly babies. Please use responsibly.
Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't need it here.
Just kidding. Welcome, and would you like a chocolate bar?
Not anymore you ain't! X3 Anyway, why yes, I would like a chocolate bar. I'll just put it next to my stack of... /nearly gets arm bitten off by plover.
...Never mind, I'l just eat it now. Good plover... good boy...
And a tall ship. No idea why.

Welcome, Newbie! Here, have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay!
Hello! Have a seventeen foot long, multicolored, wool, knit, scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.
Please use them IRresponsibly!
Have a pet cat. You may name him whatever you wish.
I don't suggest opening it anywhere near anything that can burn, or on Earth at all.
Fair winds!
Now you can throw BBQs.
Don't feed it Sues.
I think we'll get along quite well indeed. 'specially if you ever wind up with Agents working around Pokemon, 'cause man is that area understaffed. :P
I give you... a Mudkip! :D Because everybody loves them. And this one likes you.
HOORAY MUDKIP
And yes, I'll probably have a few agents stalking around the Pokémon department. >3
Welcome to the madhouse! Kindly check your soul by the door. You can reclaim it when you leave . . . IF you leave.
Lovely to meet you :) I don't recognise you, no, but that's because I'm not a Pokemon fan. Might I ask what other fandoms you enjoy? Myself, I'm a fan of Star Trek and Wicked, among many others.
Also, here are the regularly-bestowed-upon-newbies Links that are, in short, a collection of articles and other useful URLs that we politely ask every newbie to read, as they really do contain Useful Information. In relative order of sensible-reading-ness, they are:
* The Original PPC Series, which we assume you've already read.
* The List of Killed Badfic, which will direct you to a large number of non-Original PPC Missions.
The Board:
* The Board Constitution
* The FAQ: For the Board
The Wiki:
* We have our very own PPC Wiki
* The very-important-to-read-before-requesting-Permission Permission article
* Our Guide To The PPC
* The Mission Writing Guide
* The Slash-Sporking Guide
* The FAQ: For Newbies.
When you are ready to edit the wiki, make sure to read Neshomeh's excellent editing tutorial.
And finally, but very usefully,
* The List of Everything PPC
Again, nice to meet you, and welcome!
It'll take a while for me to list all of the fandoms I enjoy, though the big ones right now include Soul Eater, Kingdom Hearts, Shaman King, Warriors, and other such 'children's' media. :D
And thanks for the links (even though I've read most of them from stalking other people's boards XD)~!
Welcome to the Board! *Vulcan salute* I hereby present you with a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object, and join in your hopes for mutual getting-along-ness.
BTW, when I saw the title, I thought you were reporting a badfic.
Yeah, I do tend to make some pretty funky titles sometimes. |D Sorry~!
It's always nice to see a new face! Please enjoy this set of false mustaches as a welcoming gift.
