Hello all, I'm happy to find myself in this brand-new place! Most of you won't know me because I'm mainly just a lurker on LJ -- I don't have an LJ account. So far I have only been an active poster on IDW's Angel forum (and a mostly inactive one on CDS). So I thought a brief introduction of myself would be in order. In short, I'm Dutch (duh), and I am relatively new to the fandom. I only discovered Buffy and consequently Angel a few years ago, when I had to spend a lot of time at home with no energy to do anything except watch DVD's Since then I'm addicted. Not having been part of the fandom when the show(s) actually aired, I think I missed the worst of the fan wars, but recently I got a taste of it with all the discussions surrounding the Buffy S8 comics. Of course I have my preferences when it comes to characters and 'ships, but I do believe in treating people with other preferences with respect, and that is one of the things I really like about the goals of this board. I look forward to joining in discussions with you all that are not limited to the comics (as I have been used to so far) but be warned, this introductory post is likely to be the longest post I'll ever make on this board ETA: the modification was just to correct a typo; too bad I can't do that here without it immediately showing as an edit!

Very glad to have you here I also came to fandom after the show aired and was quite surprised when I learned how deep the trenches sometimes run between the ships. I hope that can be avoided here, since there are lovely creative people on all sides of this and there's no reason they should not have fun together. No, post like the wind! (oh god, this thing is turning me into a pushy board mummy) Feel free to open a Dutch thread in the Babel point , I happen to know that there is at least one other member who's going to understand you (not me though, sadly). I hope you'll like it here, you're very welcome!

No, post like the wind! (oh god, this thing is turning me into a pushy board mummy) I'd like to; I'm just not very good at it! But I'll do my best. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Hey Double Dutchess, nice to see you here! Looking forward to hearing more from you especially as I don't frequent the IDW boards all that much.

Thanks for the welcome everybody! Hey Double Dutchess, nice to see you here! Looking forward to hearing more from you especially as I don't frequent the IDW boards all that much. Yeah, I noticed it takes a high level of indignation for you to post there (Unfortunately that has been fairly easy to reach recently...)

Welcome! I promise you'll get stuff from me that's not about the comics. (I don't read them...bad me!)
