so.. you wish to be adopted?

well first you need to pass the tests...

here, stand on this stool and let us have a look at ya...

hmmmm... lift your left leg... ok good, now your right... ok, you can put it down...

hmmm... raise your arms above your head... ok, good, now put them straight out from your sides... hmmm... ok well, rotate them around... ok good, now jump off the stool and land on the ground with your arms in that same position...

ok good, you can put your arms down, you have passed that test...

now, one more test, for the following questions answer on a scale of one to ten, ten being the highest:

1. how crazy are you?
2. how much do you understand about Mata and the Matazone?
3. how much of your life is taken up by Matazone?

ok, we shall await your reply...

1. Sufficiently crazy? I got an A- in crazy class.
2. I understand Matazone quite well, but Mata still remains an enigma
3. All of it. But not really. Maybe a little but kind of a lot?

Pick me pick me pick me!

ok, you are adoptable, even though considering that the questions were supposed to be answered on a 1 to 10 scale....

ill adopt you if you want, but thats up to you...

I am a n00b. I do know how to use an avatar. I also work for a website... i write in forums daily... If this wasnt the first time i had come to this site i would declare myself un-n00bworthy. However, I want to be adopted.
So, therefore, if any *cough*women*cough* body would like to adopt me, I'm free for the taking!!

Exaggerated lisping to sound cute should be a hanging offence. On the other hand it does sound cute, so I'll adopt you. Feel free to ask me any questions about anything. I can't promise that I'll know all the answers but hey, what can you do?
bikerroc
sad.gif Think I need somebody to hold my hand and show me things I don't know. In return I could show them things I know but they dont't know, if you know what I mean. Cos I dont!!
Sir Psycho Sexy
ok, sure, I'll do something to help the community, you don't have to be adopted per say, but I'll make myself available to be bugged if there's anything you wanna know, I'm quite knowledgable about...stuff...y'know...the important stuff *cough*

So yeah, PM me if you need anything smile.gif
bikerroc
biggrin.gif Thankyou, thankyou. However, if you don't adopt me I can't put "adopted by ??? " in my signature and then I will feel left out of things, and when I'm left out of things I get very very upset !!!
funky fairy
Aw poor bikerroc!!!

If I were to adopt you, would I have to put it in my sig too? I rather like the minimalist thing I have going on with that. tongue.gif

I'm sure sky's my noob too, though, she could very well have flown the nest by now.
bikerroc
I'm not sharing you with anybody !! I give my whole to one person so you better sort yourself out . Me or Sky !! I don't want much, just an occasional shoulder to cry on or a silly question that needs an answer. If you're not up to it just tell me !! I shall cope alone

Sir Psycho Sexy
huh.gif

It's adoption...not marriage... though...there are forum marriages. tongue.gif
bikerroc
Wow, is that a proposal? and I hardly know you !!! But I am a lot of fun!!!
Sir Psycho Sexy
No...I was just saying that....ah jebus...*stops talking*
bikerroc
So!!!! You dont want me then? Stop playing with my heart !!


We could have had so much fun !!

funky fairy
Oooooh you flirt!
bikerroc
It's in the genes!!
funky fairy
You wearing jeans then??
bikerroc
I could be , but then again I may not be. It depends what you want
funky fairy
Hey I do not want to know if you are wearing jeans or not really, I don't swing that way!!!
bikerroc
Hey, I'll swing any way, thought it was my jeans you were interested in though !!
Soulknife
I'm ...definitely... interested in your jeans... or genes... or whatever you want me to be interested in.
bikerroc
Then I Choose you.


That wasn't so bad was it? I'll be gentle.
Dige
Umm, hi guys. I'm a noob I suppose. I'd also like to be adopted... I've watched all the animations. Hmm, what else should I put here? I suppose you all can read my profile, when I figure out where they are, and if I can even have one.
heavenlychild_87
huh??? okay 2 questions... how do you become adopted and how in the crudmuffin do you become an adopter or ....ermmm

<....confused
*hence me being a very very new newbie....
Moosh
Generally just hang around and wait for someone to adopt you, posting in this thread is a good start. Other than that, either PM someone who sounds nice or work it out for yourself.

To become an adopter just look for someone who wants to be adopted and adopt them. Then you have to answer any questions they have about stuff. Yeah
heavenlychild_87
okay ummm dude this is only my second day on here but i was wondering how to get adopted?

Hi, I think I'm in the wrong place it doesn't sound anything like the posts I read before I decided to log on and join you. I browsed a bit that was available and there was a discussion about Latin and the correct pronunciation of it and what it would sound like with different ethnic backgrounds so I thought someone may have the information I am looking for.

I am transcribing the church records of a small village in Germany and in the earlier records, 1560-1700 there is a lot of Latin. I bought a pocketbook size Latin/English dictionary and very seldom find a word in it that I need. I have found a couple of books in a Bibliography and tried to locate a copy on the Internet, preferably used, that I can buy but had no luck.

I understand that German church Latin was not a pure language and the book titled "Parish Register Latin" sounded interesting. The records I am reading are Lutheran but at that early time it was believed that Latin was the only language suitable for the educated man to write in. Does anyone have a suggestion?

If I am out of line please advise me and I will quietly drop out.

Hello

Try starting a thread in the Non-English Forums or replying to a thread about Latin. Not that many people read this thread so you might not get many replies.

I hope you stick around even if you don't get the information you need.

The other problem is that you should really have over 100 posts and know the ins and outs of the forums like changing text colors and inserting links before you adopt a noob. You've been a member for less than a week. No offense to you, but wait a while before you adopt.

Is any creature-esq-type-person willing to take on an Ickle Faerie by any chance?
