The curser, the talk page, post there...like Crackotage...no smorking...

So it's an about me section. Well, I can play at that game, although it is a rather pointless, childish game, since we're here for the Homestar, and not me in Melbourne, although, if I can help it, this will change! I am a something year old in Melbourne, Australia. My name is Ashley. I enjoy making web templates and other stuff in Photoshop. If you want to see my work go here. My portfolio site is in a perpetual state of being Under Construction, so you may have to wait many a winter to see it. And remember, keep on watching the skies, or Homestar, whichever is better for you!

The Discovery

I found Homestar through my friend Milton in September 2006, my first watched toon was Interview, my first watched sbemail was flag day, and the toon I first watched was the interview. I didn't watch First Time Here?

At first I didn't really like it...at all, I thought it was cheesy and lame, like so many other people did with their first taste of Homestar, but eventually, I was bored, and I came back to the site, and I watched all the shorts, n' stuff, and I began to enjoy it.

HRWiki

I knew about HRWiki all the time I knew about Homestar, but I never went there, until I noticed some inside jokes, and then came to see if they had been documented, of course they had been. I then used HRWiki only for notification of new stuff, which quite naturally, it did very well.

Not to long later, I noticed a new sbmail had been added, it was underlings. I got excited. I added all the locations to the filmographies they belonged in. I recieved a little thanks from Trey56 and DorianGray. I was set for life...me! Just an average HR fan had actually helped the mighty and famous Wiki! For the next couple of emails, I spent my time adding to filmographies, but it wasn't long until I wanted more. I began searching for pages needing creation, and after a while, I found that there was no page for children. I created it. I also uploaded a picture for it. It felt great. And I just signed on to the Recent Changes Patrol.

Do? Oh right! I like to patrol Recent Changes, and fix minor spelling errors, I jump at the idea of helping out when a new email or whatever comes out, since there is always work to do, I like voting in STUFF and I get a kick out of seeing new ones come out, just so I get to make up my mind. I make tons of redirects, in fact, every time I search and don't reach my page, I make one, sometimes I search stuff I know probably won't come up just so I can make it. I crop black out of screenshots, you guys really need to be more careful removing it. I try to help new pages along, with screenshots and the like. Also, debating on unimportant subjects relating to dumb animal characters is always fun. Yeah, I need to be less of a HRWiki addict.

Like all good Wiki users, I like making new pages, and I've made a few in my time, but long lists annoy me, so now it's sleeping with the fishies.
