Greetings, new friend! Have an upside-down pastry down. It still makes food, but only upside down kinds.
And, not to worry! We've got plenty of beta-readers around here to get you out of that nasty posting-without-proofreading habit.
Hello there! Another newbie introducing herself, here. You can call me Vanya, or cake, or really anything you'd like, I don't mind. I believe I used to bum around the board a couple of years ago, but I can't quite remember because I am a dumb butt.
Anyway, I am a fourteen-year-old human of the female persuasion (well, I'm very nearly fifteen, but I suppose we'll go with the technicalities for now). I am in nearly too many fandoms to name, but currently my major ones are Homestuck, Supernatural, Doctor Who, and some miscellaneous minor ones. I have extensive knowledge of several canons which I do not actively participate in the fandoms of (i.e. MLP:FiM, Ava's Demon, Sherlock, Gunnerkrigg Court, Harry Potter, probably a few others that I can't remember right now).
If you guys want to see my fanfiction, I'm exterminatecake on most websites (my ff.net account is super out-of-date, though; I'm much better now!). I have a tendency to post without proofreading, though, so keep that in mind if you care to try and slog through my heavy-handed prose and overused adjectives. I'm not particularly interested in writing missions right now, but that's mostly due to time constraints. Currently I would just love to be a part of what seems like a wonderful community!
Other than write, I also edit fanvids frequently and draw a bit. Other hobbies include collecting snowglobes, reading obsessively, crying over television shows, and doing various fashion-y things.
I didn't mean for this to become an entire essay, sorry! I get carried away sometimes...
quietly slips back into lurkdom
Have a snowglobe of Unseen University from Discworld. It may or may not turn into a shopping trolley at some point in the future.
Welcome back to the PPC! We love newbies, so leave your shoes at the door and come on in!
Greetings!
It doesn't look like we share many major fandoms, I do like Doctor Who when I can get it though, and I do love to read! :)
You must have gifts nao! I would like to present you with a TARDIS bookshelf, it takes up a very reasonable amount of space, and it's the only one you'll ever need due to inside dimensions! Sadly it doesn't really go anywhere though, but hey unlimited book and whatever else storage! :D Being a Supernatural fan I'm sure you've already seen it, but I'd also like to present you with the best rendition of "Eye of the Tiger" ever! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cb3G5Qj_Lo8
Have a cookie! Your views on Superwholock?
Would marry it if it was a person and not a perfect amalgamation of fandoms.
Welcome to the PPC! I'm KittyNoodles, and as a welcome gift I have placed a box of bleepnerds and one Odd Container in your inventory!
Odd Container
Item Level 1
Chance on Opening: Receive one spray of confetti or one huggle - your choice.
[This container is perfectly spherical and appears to have been crafted from glite-painted wood. Its weight changes at odd intervals, and you can't shake the feeling that opening it may prove hazardous to your health if you are unwary.]
...Ignore that last bit, the flavor text hates me...

Hello! Welcome to the board! Hope to see you around sometime, honestly I'm pretty recently joined as well (erm....that didn't make sense, did it?)
Please accept my gift of some Bleepolate ice cream with extra chocolate, for any badfics you come across during your time as a Boarder.
Welcome, welcome, welcome, a fine welcome to you!
It seems we are of close age...very close indeed. You are also a human. I would like to think most of us are, but sometimes I wonder. Here, have a box of tissues and a soft blanket. Just what you need for re-watching all the emotional episodes of your favorite TV shows. (Available in many unnatural colors that don't exist.)
Wow, quite an extensive list of fandoms. Nothing there that I am really a fan of, but the PPC is quite large; there is someone who shares at least one of each of your fandoms. But as for your gift...
*rummages through bag of holding*
Here is a snowglobe of Hogwarts!
Yeah, I pretty much collect a fandom every time I consume a piece of media.
Ooh, I've always wanted one of these! *scurries away with it*
Welcome, welcome. I'm Aelin, another newbie on the Board- nice to see you!
Looks to me like you'll fit right in. Assuming you haven't seen it already, take a look at the PPC Wiki. Most of the history's there, along with all the fiction and other stuff you might want to read.
Don't worry about the length - check out my introduction if you want to see how long these things can get. On second thought, don't. It will most likely bore you.
As for your newbie gift, have this toaster! It's available in the Sue color of your choice and fires pastries at high velocity! Also, have a supersize bottle of Bleeprin. You'll most likely need it during your tenure here.
Here are sparkly things. Use them well. Great to meet you!<br>And remember- with great sparkly things comes great responsibility.
Hey! Hi! Fellow newbie says hi! Be excited! You have been given sparkly things!*pulls out of lurkdom*
Aw, yes, another Homestuck fan! H1GH F1V3! And don't worry about the length, some newbies put a lot more than that on their first posts. Making long posts is perfectly fine and acceptable here. I know I do it.
Now, let me try and find a newbie gift for you... let's see... ah! Have a transforming lipstick-chainsaw! Kanaya's formerly-signature weapon provides wanton destruction in a small and easy-to-transport package! It would probably be extra-effective at decapitating the typical Mary Sue, given their vanity, slow-wittedness, and love of makeup! Just make sure to clean it every once in a while if you do that, or all of the glittery blood will ruin the color.
Have you read the Constitution and the Original Series? Also, have some Bleep'n'ms (helps combat Badfic effects) and an Unspecified Plushie (turns into your favorite character) as welcome gifts! I'm sorry to say I don't share in your current major fandoms, but there are several people here who will. Glad to have you anyway :-) Just one question, though: why would you exterminate cake? Cake is awesome! ^.^
Yes, I have indeed read the Constitution! As for the Original Series... well, I'm working on it. I'm not a huge fan of LoTR (don't get me wrong, I admire it as a wonderful work of literature, it's just not really my thing right now), so I keep putting it off, which is really dumb of me, I know.
I would never actually exterminate cake. Cake is indeed awesome and I am in fact craving it right now.
