General Question

Am I the only one here who is new, that hasn't come from another answer/question/discussion website?

Asked by smashbox (1302points) December 16th, 2009

Just wondering, seems like everyone here knows someone, but me, even if they are new. I want to know, if anyone is NEW here, did anyone besides me sign up, within the last week, who doesn’t know anyone here?

I came here because of stumbleupon . . . so I didn’t know anyone . . .and really still don’t, I guess Im one of those edgy loners.

Hey there,

I joined back in December of 2008. The way that I found this site was by googling a question, and up popped Fluther. I checked it out and have been hooked ever since.

Welcome!

Me! Never knew this existed until a Christmas party this past Saturday. I don’t even know of other sites.

Plenty of people come in search of homework answers.

I joined the same time as @jmah. I had never been a member of a site before. It doesn’t take long to feel welcome here and fall in love with it. =)

I came alone as well. You will have friends soon. To get an idea about the place be sure to check out the Unofficial Fluther Wiki especially the “injokes”

I came here alone 20 months ago and I’m still alone. I weep but no one cares. I try to fit in but everyone sees my flaws. I know I wear cropped pants but give me a break. I sometimes use foul-ish language and use subtle innuendo as well as sexual cliche“s, but yet I fluther alone. Woe. I am woe. Woe is me.

I fart under Fluther covers too….

Lonesome my ass Auggie…the minute you walked in here everyone dripped with excitement….not me of course. I held my cool until I could corner you in the chat room and that’s when you told me you hated my ellipsis…..

Welcome, Smashbox!
I found Fluther in a google search result. I joined about three months ago and got instantly addicted. I’m spending so much time on Fluther that I have a tan from my monitor. Damn you Fluther! How I love you…and yet I hate you…and yet I love you… and yet I hate you!

When I first joined here I was alone. I didn’t know anyone. I observed this site before I created an actual account. Now I’m not so lonely.

Since most of you are new here…Let me introduce meself, Hello I am Tink!

My girlfriend, ericabanerica just signed up yesterday and doesn’t know anyone.

She saw me on it and was interested, so I showed her how to sign up.

I don’t know anyone here. Hello!

smashbox's avatar

Thank you all, I was beginning to think I was the only one, not a bad thing though, was just wondering. Many here are great. Many who responded to me and welcomed me, are even more exceptionally great, and thank you. I’m not one bit lonely, not in the least. I probably, won’t be here as often as others, but none the less… Lurve to the helpfu,l and the welcomers. Have a great day!

@Dog…thank you for the link very, very helpful.

I know online identities. I do not know a “real” person.
