Hello,
I joined the old BR back in 2004 after a long period of lurking. I never made the list (or even saw it). I live in the North West but study in London. When I'm not procrastinating (ahem) I like photography, pugs, Radio 4 and science geekery.

Can't remember when I joined, periodically lurk n prolifically post, depending on mood. Love roses, tea, good coffee, leather messenger bags, Top Gear, my missus n my lads (new addition is my granddaughter) n dirty filthy clever humour, oh and exclamation marks were invented for me only!!!!

Hello! I used to lurk and sometimes post in the BR.

hi all, thought I'd give the new br a go, what can I say, partnered, like beer/coffee/pretty much any food except squid, scifi/fantasy and I'm in my 50's so the image you should have is a fat peter pan ... or should that be peta pan ? some of you I've met and I'll be letting you know who you are shortly, aren't you lucky

Hi all,

Hi Heti! You weren't in London on Saturday night by any chance? I saw someone who looked a lot like you in First Out!

I was BBB and lurked a lot. I'm mammy on here as that's what I'm known as elsewhere! I've lurked mainly so far but hope to post more as life is about to get much less busy - thank goodness.

I lurked a bit in the old place. Very very infrequently though. I'm strictly a newbie - but not new to forums.
I'm 45, mother of a 19 year old, CP'd, dogs, cats, house, garden, work as a staff nurse. I live in South London.
I really like it here. My other Internet home has been taken over by bullying bitches (is that word ok or do I need to asterisk it?).

Welcome newbies all. Ruby that should be OK. There have been no further complaints from Pro-boards since I removed "the room between W and Y", so I do think it was the name that flagged it up. I think we'll be OK if we're just a bit aware of what might be considered "adult content", and also give some thought to it being work-safe as I know a lot of broomies read from work.

most board systems have the capability of hiding forums from casual browsing
so would proboards complain about a room between W & Y if it were a members only room that can't be seen as a casual browser or indexed by googlebots, you have to be a member and logged in to even see it ?
bit like, what I assume you have, for moderator and admin discussions that doesn't show up for anyone who isn't a mod or admin

Nope. I considered this, but adult content is verboten on proboards altogether.
