 Hmm... You don't seem to get what I'm saying.
One, as has happened, would not expect to see the images that sometimes get posted here, or to read the discussions that are taking place here - remember the expectations? - and because of that the thread feels unwelcoming. These things are not inviting for someone new to open up a dialog.  

This. One thousand times, this. There are a couple of times I've been sorely tempted to share my Alistair-pictures that have been burning on my harddisk for ages, but as it is, the tone of the thread has driven me away. Why? Because it feels intimidating for someone who already doesn't hold the membership card to the little backscratchers' club. I've seen at least two newbies posting on-topic to this thread being completely ignored and forgotten, while regulars' off-topic jokes and are greeted with mirth and friendly jibe-wars of epic proportions. Now, I am 100% positive that no one of the regulars purposefully treat newcomers this way; it's just the nature of the beast. I do have to admit myself that on other forums and in the most scariest medium of them all called Real Life, I tend to pay more attention to my friends than complete strangers. But you guys have to understand that from a stranger's point of view that is often frustrating. Sometimes a single "Welcome" can go a long way.

I have to stress that I mean no offense with anything I say. Really. And boy, do I feel bad and stoopid about the fact that my first post in this thread ended up to be about this, and not those Alistair pictures still taking space on my harddrive. See, I'm still optimistic about sharing those pics some day. In this very thread, even.

Please share your piccies!  :x

Certainly no one is ever ignored on purpose, unless they are a troll or very troll-like.  And we look forward to seeing those screen shots!   There is never enough Alistair love!

This. There are just times when this thread is rolling like an out of control freight train on steroids laced with crack, dipped in caffeine and marinated in Jolt Cola, rolling downhill. And things can get buried within seconds of posting them. I've actually typed a question and by the time I hit ubmit the thread had jumped 5 more pages. It's not intentional, it's just the nature of a busy large thread. Persistance is the key.

I am confused as well.

Some more confusion.

If it weren't for the weird meshing, that would be such a cute little snuggle pose.

Ronkarisha got jealous of Kara and Alistair making googly eyes at each other and decided to remind her mom that they were in her universe now.....

I especially like the hairstyle, I haven't been able to find that one anywhere! That must be your super secret mod.

*feels the warm welcome fuzzies*

I promise to do my part in Ali picspam in the near future, but first I'll have to resize & crop most if not all of them first (I don't reeeeally like those black horizontal borders). Also, I may have to think another storage than PhotoBucket, since it seems to have this nasty habit of deleting the more racier images. Any suggestions? What do you guys use for posting your pics?

If you dislikes the black bars in game, might I suggest this mod?  It is pretty damn awesome.  Doesn't help with your current pics, though.

I also use Photobucket without issue, though Ive heard of other having problems.  Not sure what's up with that.

I have a hair related question - if I may?

I noticed cmessaz - your avatar has plaits. Is this an available mod or did you make them yourself?

My question comes with a bribe ;-) -

Her hair comes from TMP's mods. Could someone link it for Avilia please?

[luciusleathordt]

I will continue with Photobucket, then, and if I notice any censorship, I'll switch to Imageshack.



Cmezzas, I totally took his sword first as a... dagger. Yes, that's it, a dagger. It's 7.48am here and my mind is not already on the gutter.

Juts to make it clear, I did not recieve those pics or the membership card and I do not wish to.

Speaking of which, what's my official rank here. An observer? The yang to your collective yings?

Ah. It's not about me, I am long time lurker, and an occasional poster. I wasn't talking about how I was/am treated here nor was I saying that I feel unwelcomed. But there are others who might feel so. You, or anyone else for that matter, doesn't have to worry about what some scarred lurker might think, but I was... how to say it? Trying to make some of "you" aware that these people exist. I am... more... understanding in that way.

It seem to me like you were generalizing to project your own experiences.  I appologize if that wasn't the case. 

Arguing about what someone might or might not feel is ultimately futile.  There's no way to know what the nameless lurkers are thinking.  Some people simply like to read w/o participating.  Perhaps some people are intimidated.  Personally I think if people are intimidated about posting online then there are bigger issues at hand.  There is no greater anonymity that I can think of than the internet.  You can be a sweet heart or an assho!e and that may or may not reflect the person you are in real life.  There is no certainty or guarantees, things simply are what they are.
