While technically a newer member, I lurked around here for over a year before I finally registered and started posting. I'm still more of an observer than an active participant though.

 

My general impression of Bsn? A mix of thoughtful speculation and silliness, with occasional outburts of FEELS (good or bad). So far I haven't really seen much outright hostility. There are far, far worse communities out there.

You've been lucky, then.  But then, the hostility I've bumped into has been more recent, so I guess I was lucky at some point too.

I sometimes think a few of you are waaaaaaaaaaaaay to passionate about certain aspects of this game. ...

 

Oh I don't know, people are pretty chilled. 

 

Except maybe about:

  • Qunari hairstyles, and
  • Healing spells and recovery, oh and
  • 8 ability limits, and
  • anything to do with Cullen,
  • and Varric's chest hair,
  • and Blinky,
  • and how will the Warden be referenced (and Anders and Loghain)
  • and hating multiplayer or
  • loving multiplayer

Oh darn, maybe the forum is a bit over-passionate, but welcome anyway...  :D

How did you leave off two of the most divisive topics:  ROMANCES and TEMPLAR v. MAGE?!?  People go for blood in threads on both topics.

Just remember to read all 11,472 topics before posting, so as to avoid needless repetition.

Elves threads.

I think it's been quiet this past few weeks , but for a while every week end there were an elven thread turning into chaos.

Romances tend to be split into two distinct types of threads:

  • the ones with 99% extremely positive gushing over the romanceable characters
  • the ones that are dedicated to declaring in factual statements "X is a horrible, revolting hellbeast, THEREFORE I am being oppressed and forced into being gay" or something comparable

The latter type certainly should be on that list, but they rarely coexist within a single thread and when they do, it tends to get nuked into oblivion quickly.

Thought I drop by to say hello to the new members. If you get tired of looking/posting in the Dragon Age sections, you can checkout  the ME sections to see whats going on.

..... am being oppressed and forced into being gay......

 

C'mon now.  Dat gay agenda, though.  You know how we roll. 

 

On a serious note:

 

Welcome to new members.  This place isn't all that bad once you learn the ropes.  Lurk a bit.  Identify a few like-minded individuals.  And then jump in!

I'm having trouble breathing with all of that gay agenda going down my throat. Thick, veiny gay agenda.

This is the place where hell goes to die... Ask a question and you will be shunned by all mankind.

 

Feel free to ask any questions.

Are you new to the forums?

No. I have been at BioBoards since 2005 - and I resent being called an old guard

I'm new to the Forum - but I've been around playing the games (by myself, since it's what an over 40, introverted, die-hard, Bioware RPG fan like myself does, lol ) since their release years ago. I have been reading up on all the "mass" of posts/topics and what an... "effect" it has had. ;)

 

Thanks for the welcome. It's much appreciated!

I have been a member for about a week but I have been a long time reader. I created an Origin account mainly for the Keep but I entered the forum because of a pun topic. So I mainly come to the forum for the LOLs. Anyway I'd like to welcome any new members and say hello to the veterans. :D

I'm not really new to BSN. I'm more of a silent reader, but this feels like a good opportunity just to say hello to everyone whether new or not.

 

I like being here, I like you guys and I really don't know what else to say.

 

So.... hello! ^_^

This thread is giving me diabetes.

If someone "new" to the BSN has a question, can't they just ask? Does somenone need to really reach out and stroke their hand, and whisper encouragement and comfort?

New or old membership is irrelevant; if you have a question or concern, voice it.
