Please forgive me...

but I need your help!
I’ve only been registered for about 1 week, but I really enjoy reading all the posts and hope to stick around for a while.
My problem (insignificant tho’ it may be!) is that I too have a message board (website and guest book). It’s been running about a month now and I’m impatient to actually have someone other than myself and my family visit and write messages! (There’s been a couple of weirdos but aren’t there always?!)
Without wishing to poach you all away for a greater purpose, ;), maybe some of you would like to visit my site and contribute to my board? You never know, you might like it!
If you are interested, or even if you know of other ways I can advertise my site, you can find me at http://theportal.to/ThePurpleOne
Please also let me know what you think, and what you would recommend should be added/taken away, etc.
Thanking you all in advance!

I would, galadriel, but then that would mean you’d be too busy fixing my links and moving my threads to the right forums to be able to come here and post. And we don’t want that do we?
:wink:

BTW, galadriel is a cool name. Tolkien?

ahhh, tolkien. once met a lass who’s real name is Galadriel. pretty girl with a pretty name. :slight_smile:

Hello, Galadriel, Welcome to the board. My name, as you can see, is purplebear. I love purple. Anything purple. Well, there are a few limited exceptions, of course. :wink:
Mr Bear, for example. :stuck_out_tongue:

I will go look at your message board as soon as I have some free time. I feel certain that I should know where your name came from, but it escapes me at the moment.:confused:

<Doesn’t it figure that the only purple smilie would be the confused one!>

Welcome to the board. Of course I’ll visit your board. Are you sure you are ready for that?

You should definitely post here, they’re a good bunch of people who would love to post to your site.

PB’s post reminded me of a joke.

whats the difference between Pink and Purple??

the tightness of your grip.

:: d&r ::

Was that sarcasm? Did you check out the site? I don’t think either party, gal or LBBB would enjoy a meeting.

No, it wasn’t sarcasm, it was just a typo which happened to include the correct coding to put that link in.

Funny how that happens so often.

I simply don’t understand it at all.

Democritus - As if! Why would I bother wasting my time doing silly things like that when I have SDMB to post on and my own site to update (which hasn’t happened since the launch date but is imminent), not to mention the other countless mundane tasks that fill my days (work, eating, watching tv, cooking, cleaning…need I go on?) Suffice to say, if your links don’t work, they stay that way (unless I’m in a very charitable mood and decide otherwise, but don’t count on it!) and as yet I only have one forum and as far as I am concerned, you can post what you like there. I’ll leave all the hard work to the moderators on this site!

Soulsling - I love the name (in fact, I love most of the character names used by J.R.R.T.) and for the longest time I was planning on calling one of my kids (when I have some) Galadriel, but I think kids have enough to contend with growing up!

Purplebear - A fellow purple person!! Greetings! :confused:
Galadriel is (I think) one of the elves in Lord of the Rings - a great book and one day I will actually finish it instead of just saying I will!

Android - Thanks, but I think NOT!! :slight_smile:

Thanks to everyone who has visited my site - keep it up, strange things are afoot!!

BTW, can someone please let me know how you post a link as a single word, instead of just the URL?!

[Hyjack, I am sorry] Please, please, please do yourself a favour and read the book!! It is absolutely wonderful! Galadriel is the queen of the fairies. Elrond is the King. It is wonderful. Please read it, you owe it to yourself!!

galadriel on the reply page just over where you put your user name in you’ll see a link vB code, click this and you’ll learn all you need to know .

No she isn’t. She is the elven queen of Lothlorien.

No he isn’t. He is the elven “king” of Rivendell,aka The Last Homely House.

I would suggest you read it again.
