I looked and looked for a “Hello” thread where members introduce themselves when they first sign up.

But I couldn’t find one.

Is it common to put that kind of thread in this forum?

P.S. Hello

Hello. These types of threads usually go in the _Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share_ forum, aka MPSIMS. A mod will likely move this one there shortly.
