Hi Mugsie!
Here is something that PnL put together for those from Askville back when things first went insane. I am posting it here, so that if others from Askville read your Q, they will also have the info.

http://www.fluther.com/askville/faq/

Also, here is a Q that I asked when I first joined, it may be helpful to read through some of the posts:

http://www.fluther.com/disc/13820/im-new-here-can-some-one-please-link-me-to-what/

And finally, here is a Q about Askville that you can post to with Askville stuff. We don’t want to alienate folks here by posting too many ‘askville’ Q’s so we have stuck to just a few and this is one.

The people here are fantastic, they really are. I hope you have as great of time here as I have. BTW, what’s on your coffee mug today ;0)

Good morning Mugsie. Nice to see another expatriate. Maybe we will all wind up here!

Mugsie's avatar

Thank you so much marrisa. I will look through it all. My mug today is one of my favorites! The bone china one with the pink and red roses! Thanks again, kelly

Morning Mugsie!

Happy to see you! Have fun here. I have!

Mugsie's avatar

Hello Ich & autumn ~ so many of you! I am so glad I came over!

Check out my profile if you are looking for some of the other Askvillers. Of course, not everyone in my Fluther is from Askville, because I have met so many wonderful people here I have a variety of folks in my Fluther.

Mugsie's avatar

Awesome! I am looking for PIC123, is he here under another name?

marissa's avatar

I’ll check on Picked.

Also, if you read my answer to this question, it may help you (I know it is long, but I wanted to be thorough :0)

Hey, I also can’t forget this, if you want to help out a fellow Flutherite (actually, you’d be helping the organization she volunteers with), check out this Q and vote. You can vote everyday.

Mugsie's avatar

Thanks! I read the first one and I believe I did help with that organization on FB, but I will check it out again to make sure.

marissa's avatar

Picked says that he is here somewhere, but that facebook is better to reach him. You can pm him and find out username here and facebook link :0)

cak's avatar

I’m here, too! :)

I posted on the strike board, but after the response from the mayor…well, it doesn’t look promising!

autumn43's avatar

Hi guys!

Cak – I can’t believe it. I just went to catch up on the board. I just wonder who really is behind the askville curtain – and why they are afraid of a whale’s tail.

Having said that – I’m happy to see you HERE!

cak's avatar

ROFL…Autumn! I wonder the same…what the heck is so scary about a whale’s tail?

marissa's avatar

Hi guys! I also just read that Layyla’s behavior ‘isn’t covered’ that is a bunch of b.s. and yet they were oh so clear about what you all did to get suspended, your actions were all covered (notice sarcastic tone). Cak, just know that you loved far more by many than you are despised by one.

cak's avatar

thanks marissa! I’m lucky – I have some really great friends!

waterbearer's avatar

Hi guys! And welcome Mugsie!

jlm11f's avatar

Welcome Mugsie! Hope you aren’t having any problems adjusting to Fluther :). Oh and Happy Monday to all !

unixcorn's avatar

PnL,

Is it ok if we time/date stamp in THIS thread and the “have you been banned from askville” one? I get it that it isn’t done on most threads… thanks!

richardhenry's avatar

Oh god, let’s not do that again. ;) Just send Andrew, Ben and Erik a polite email to register your interest in having dates and times on posts. It’s silly to keep doing it on and off when it’s something we would all like. (Click the ‘contact’ link up at the top.)

Tantigirl's avatar

Yup Mugsie, you know me as L2S. ;)

Mugsie's avatar

Oh yes ~ hello L2S! How is everything. I find myself, like a few other taking a break from
_ _ ! This place is so cool and much better than FB! I was getting poked so bad LOL!

tedibear's avatar

Hey Mugsie! I see you found the place. I like it here a bunch, and hope you will too. :)

Mugsie's avatar

Hi tedi, I left you know where for a week. It was getting pretty bad,I do like it here! Kelly:)

tedibear's avatar

Fluther is very cool. My experience thus far has been terrific.

Mugsie's avatar

It is! I tried the chat room today and that was real cool!
