MBS is such a tiny fandom. It does make it possible to read every fanfic existing, most of it good, which is fun; it makes it easy to be noticed as well.
Thank you for all of the gifts! That goes for everyone, by the way.
Hello, PPC Boarders! I'm Wendy/QuietHiker/Quihi/whatever you want to call me that I'll know you're addressing me. After stalking the PPC for a week or two, joining the wiki, and reading quite a few stories, I decided to join you guys.
I'm mainly into Lord of the Rings and that stuff and the Mysterious Benedict Society, and I also enjoy various other fantasy/science fiction books. I've been reading fanfiction for… 2-3 years. I don't really know what else to say about myself. So hello!
I honestly have never seen the Mysterious Benedict Society listed as a fandom. I loved those books! Anyway, have a bottomless barrel of sushi as your housewarming gift, and I look forward to chattering with you. :D

So, a LoTR fan, eh? You're in VERY good company here in the PPC! Now what should a Pokemon fan like myself give to a LoTR fan?
*rummages through bag of holding*
How'd I get ahold of this? Well...
Here, have some lembas bread!
'Cause that one is awesome.
Welcome to the PPC Board, have a fluffy velociraptor and all that. Have fun!
I didn't get Nickolodeon until the last couple years, so I never got into that. My friends tell me that it's awesome.
Thank you!
Have some virtual fire crackers! Instead of an explosive device for celebrations, they are crackers that you may crack into two, and will catch fire. Useful for hunting trips, I say.
You read Asimov? Quite interesting tales he had written.
Greetings, new friend! Have an egg!
What kind of egg, you ask? Well, I don't know! We'll just have to wait and find out!
(While I hide behind this steel door!)
Would you mind if I called you Wendy? It's easier to remember.
What fantasy/sci-fi books do you enjoy? Any movies, TV series, games you like?
That works for me! And can I call you Karen?
I think I'm just going to make a list of that stuff I like on my user page on the wiki- it would take me forever to copy it here.
Would you like a cookie? How long have you been writing?
Hi, have some fudge!
Ooh, delicious! Thanks!
Thank you for all of the gifts! I shall find uses for them all, though I think I'll run away from the pokes. I've heard that lint makes an excellent fire starter, anyway.
I used to have a lot more fandoms I was interested, but I then outgrew the books/they got worse when more books came out/I realized how bad they are. I also enjoy the Secret Series and… most children/young teen fantasy books!
Hi Wendy, I'm Kitty. Welcome to the PPC! Here's a bled pen pack and notebook set!
Join the irc channel, we always welcome new people. I'm one myself.
Welcome to the PPC, we like new people! Have a bag of pebbles and a Random Shiny Object.
Hurray, fellow Tolkienite! It's good to meet more of my people. :P What other books are you into?

It is of course traditional to poke newbies. It's rather an old tradition, though - most people give presents these days instead. But what sort of welcome is that? I mean, really, what would you prefer - people throwing gifts at you, or a proper bewildered poking to try and figure out what you are?
Don't answer that.
Anyway, hello! Welcome a'Board! We hope you have fun, and please remember to leave your sanity at the door - it makes such a mess when it explodes.

Greetings! I'm one of the old farts from literally ten years ago that vanished off the board and then just recently came back myself, so I'm quite out of the loop as to what all has been going on in the past seven years or so.
I'd give you a present, but I tend not to give out free things. MSTers, like myself, aren't paid very well, and we're very clingy about the things that we do have. I have some laundry lint I don't think I'm using if you feel so inclined. I... also have some mixed nuts... and a 2012 calender. Take your pick.
I'm sure you'll like it here.
Hello and greetings!
I hereby grant you a lined Infinite Notebook with urple covers and wilver binding for your very own. Just make sure you don't hurt your eyes looking at it. Please.
-Aila
I think I shall just call you something different something every time, Quihi. If that is okay.
Welcome to the PPC, where shoes and sanity have no home. We're surprisingly friendly for a group that made its name on the internet by assassinating people's power fantasies.
Here, have a top hat kitten! It is a wondrous beast, combining the best features of snazzy headwear and feline. Just don't look at it too much, or think about how it's supposed to work or fit together. That leads to headaches, nosebleeds, and an obsession with geometry that leads you to repainting every room you enter, muttering "the organs, the organs, the organs" until your voice wears out while you diagram the vivisection of worlds.
So don't do that. Please?
Many greetings. I am AdmiralSakai, aspiring mad scientist and compulsive overthinker. Please feel free to take your shoes off, have a nice can of Purple Stuff (now available in World One!) and make yourself comfortable. Oh, and leave your sanity at the door- you won't be needing that here.
You seem to have covered all of the main bases introductions-wise, although we would of course always be happy to hear more about you. I'm fairly new here myself, but I've had little trouble fitting in, so I'm sure you'll do fine. As an accountwarming gift, I present you with a Carafe of Continuous Caffeine- I promise no fundamental physical laws were harmed in its creation.
