Now, here's something new: Someone who ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW WE HAD A WIKI.

Before you joined the forum.

I think you've made history and such.

It's not just us. It's everybody.

Go ahead and create a username! Fix something if you see it, add something if you find it.

Yay stan!

This is really cool - I never knew bout "Strong Sad's Lamant". I'm lookin at it now.

SwissCakeRolls · **Posted:** Sat Aug 27, 2005 5:49 pm

Yeah. That's how I found Strong Sad's Lament too.

The wiki is awesome.

Actually, he's definitely not the first.

The wiki is the main site, and it's been here much longer than the forum, justsoyaknow

Roffle.

I don't mean to offend, but that was hilarious.

I'm curious... how'd you find the forum before you found the wiki?

Swooshy told him about it, methinks. Apparently they're friends in the "real world".

Quite so! When he told me the adress, I didnt think too much of the "hrwiki" in it, I thought it was just some hosting site like geocities or somethin. So I didn't really know about it until, as I said, I clciked the little Wiki link.

And Experimental, you have the right to laugh. Just now youre now at the mercy of my terror...

Ah, okay. "Real life." I've heard of that before.

Naw, I've given my friends links at school. They usually have to refer me to something they posted on their Live Journal, while I, in my ever-geeky ways, scrawl entire URLs out for them or a regular basis. :mrgreen:

Shishu Hiwatari · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 11:09 am

I've tried telling these "real life" friends to go to a forum. Never works out very well

Marshmallow Roast · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 12:02 pm

I tried to get my best friend, who loves HR, to join the Forum, but she said her dad monitored all the sites she went to and she wasn't allowed to visit forums. She loves the Wiki, though. Score.

Well, at least she can go to the wiki. Maybe you should tell her to ask her dad if she can show him the forum, so he can be assured that it's a good place.

Marshmallow Roast · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 1:51 pm

Naw, she would get in trouble for even going here. Her dad is strict that way; she's told me.

When I first discovered you could use the internet to interact with other people (which was about three years after I first got the internet), I used to tell my friends to go to my online haunts and hang out with me there (none of them ever did, which in the long term is lucky). Now I never do this. As a friend of mine noted, the idea that you can just drag all your disparate social groups to one place and think they'll all get along is a joke

The Experimental Film · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 4:10 pm

I got Dee Tee Pee to sign up. And one of my best friends tried to join, but he's not able to access email. I keep trying to get him to start a gmail account, but he never listens...

I got to this place myself through Almighty Google.

Marshmallow Roast · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 4:22 pm

Same. I was googling lyrics to a Limozeen song.

I didn't know about the Forum for almost a month after I found the Wiki. The link didn't pop out.

I recall getting to the Wiki through a H*R group on Livejournal, and from there to the forums probably through the link that appears at the bottom of every new cartoon's page

The Experimental Film · **Posted:** Sun Aug 28, 2005 5:02 pm

I got to the Forum because of the Great Wiki Downage.

It had the computer picture. With "Go to the Forum!" underneath it.

Yeah.

Teffie, didn't you come right after the toon, "Exerimental Film" came out? Which was BEFORE the Wiki switched servers?

Hmm... nope. "Experimental Film" came out on July 13th, and I joined more than a month later, on August 31st.

Which happens to be in like three days.

Acekirby · **Posted:** Mon Aug 29, 2005 2:15 pm

Huh. The Forum before the Wiki, eh?

I knew about the Wiki and was on there a lot. But when I found the forum, it was all over.

my old computer couldnt edit pages in the wiki, so once the forums came out i made a name and asked about it....
even though i dont edit pages alot anymore.

DS_Kid · **Posted:** Mon Aug 29, 2005 8:11 pm

I don't really do anything on the wiki except read the new updates and stare at a 509 page. I actually have been reading the forum though since Peasant's Quest came out. So I guess you could say I discovered the foum first, because I didn't know what a wiki was at that time.

Homestar Runner Wiki Forum

Whoa.

Who is online
