Hello world
I would have lurked for a while to get a feel for the forum, but the annoying 'introduce yourself' message at the top of the page is getting my goat

I dont have anything exciting to say at the moment. I have kept a quarter eye on the development of ebook technology for some time and have now decided to investigate in more detail, found this site and here I am

I shall go back to lurk mode for a while now ...

Anna

That would be a shame. No worries, you can let yourself off the leash here and discuss your <autocensored>.
Welcome by the way.

Welcome to MobileRead, Anna!

I'm sorry about the intro note but I'm glad you started your thread! I lurked for a long time (years) before I actually joined and I'm so happy I finally took the plunge. The people here at MR are wonderfully helpful and a great bunch to know. If you have any questions about ereading or reader devices, this is the place to ask them. I know you will enjoy your time with MR.

Happy reading.

I'm sorry ladies if I hurt your feelings with my expressive choice of language.
I don't know where the line is until I have stepped over it, obviously.

This is a new low for me, Kaz has to apologize for my posts, man, I'm ashamed.

aw, abelturd, no worries, i'm sure there is no harm done. we just try to make sure that posts here are appropriate for the context, but i'm sure you weren't crossing any lines intentionally. thanks for editing it.

welcome to mr, LilyThePink. as you've heard by now this is definitely the place for discussing every aspect of ebook technology, so get comfortable and dive in ! you'll find people here are very helpful and friendly so don't hesitate to ask questions !

happy reading !

Abelturd, I wasn't apologizing for your post! I was talking about the automatic message you get asking you to post a Introduction in the Intoduce Yourself thread when you haven't posted for the first time. I make enough silly remarks on my own, so I really don't have the right to be critical of anyone else. Besides all that, I thought your post was funny.

Hi Anna and welcome to MobileRead. Forget about going back to lurk status. One post and you are addicted!

Pheeeww! What a relief.
Thanks Kaz for thinking it was funny, that's what I was originally going for.
Thanks Zelda for your kind words.
