I'm a lurking oldby. I don't even remember how long I've been here, but quite a while (not more than a year though, I'm not that old). It's been fun though, and this is the first time I've been to the Newby threads. Sad huh? It's pretty fun here though, I think I'll start coming more often.

Definition of a Portkey Oldbie by Arnina

HI ATHENA!!! well, since it's an introducing thread, i better give you a fresh pumpkin pie!!!
erm... welcome!!!

HB

well, I'm a Wonky Lurker because i can't seem to keep up with the conversations happening in the wonky thread.... my goodness i think they're at their 31st thread or more i lost count.... anyway... i like H/Hr a lot..... I also fancy R/Lu and J/L and D/G in the fandom only but i like the idea of D/G in canon also....

~Karen

Hey, wait a minute...

I just realized that I never got my official PK hug or pumpkin pie. *is indignant* Then again, until about a month or so ago I never left the H/Hr section, so how would I know about the Newbie thread? Oh well.

Well then, good job I'm here isn't it?

*Hands Pumpkin Pie and Juice over* and *Hugs* You're very late welcome hug!

*Starts in on the pie*

So just how many of us are Wonky Lurkers anyway? I mean, if Becky is a lurker and she's as zany as the Wonky Posters...

I'm really embarrassed... I'm an oldbie and never got my hug *sobs*

*spreads arms out wide enough to hug all old bies*

I feel your pain... I really do. Or else why would I start this topic. Anyway enjoy your pumpkin pies and here you have me officially saying welcome to you all!

So welcome Karen, Rach, and Jennifer to PK! *Whee* Don't lurk at the wonky threads, just join in. Read the thread indexes to 'try' to catch up, but it is fruitless to be in touch with everything, unless you are me. 'Cause I am special.

Becky it is NOT gone. We are on 42. No way is it gone!

Good decsion Becky!!!!

Kris- doing research paper....

*looks at the thread name* PK hug? Hey, I never got one of those, and I've been here a whole year and a half! Ah well, what can I say, I jumped straight for the D/G section and muffins. Everyone, go check out the DLA! *shameless self-ad*

~Ryoko~

*hugs to Ryoko* I can't believe you never recieved one! *more hugs to Ryoko*

Ha, thats all thats posted yet. We're sitll working/planning/writing

Thanks for the hugs!!!! *gives her a basket of choco muffins*


~Ryoko~

Ryoko- Well, that would explain why I haven't read any more!

Almost a one liner!

You didn't get a hug??? *Hugs Ryoko*
There you go...you're very late welcome hug for moi!

And *Gets more Pumpkin Pie out of the oven and hands it out to all PK oldbies*

Enjoy people.

I never introduced myself and hence got not hug either. And no pumpkin pie! I love pumpkin pie!!!! But that's thanks to my own stupidity...I'm a PK user since, dunno, August, and never found the forums until a few weeks ago...

Ri, who is now hiding because she's ashamed of her own idiocy

*Hands Pumpkin Pie, Juice (or something stronger if you'd prefer) and hugs*

Consider yourself welcomed Ri!

~Bec

Thanks!!!

Ryoko you never got your PK hug?

Awww.... *hugs* I'm a PK welcomer too, I feel bad now!

And Ri, same to you! *tosses a chocolate chip muffin and gives PK hug* Welcome to PK! Teehee...

Kristina

I don't think I can consider myself an Oldbie. 250 posts are not that much, even though I registered in June of last year. But since it's too late now to introduce myself...well..

I never got my PK hug. Hehe.

-Anto

Why, thank you Bec. YAY! I've been Welcomed...Finally...

Wow...It feels..good! I wish I had started a topic back then, so that I would have met these wonderful people a while before.

Hey all!

I'm, by definition, a PK Oldbie. I've made a total of 33 posts since August when I first joined. I'm the definitive lurker. I decided it's time I posted here.

Can I have my hug and slice of Pumpkin Pie? I love Pumkin Pie!!!

Nadja

Hey look! 34! Hehe...

Hey Nadja!!

Well, I've just been welcomed myself, so we were in the same boat until some time ago.

*Hugs* That will be your Welcoming Hug and guess what? You will not get a slice of Pumpkin Pie, but a WHOLE Pie! Great isn't it? *serves Pie*

Anto

Hi Nadja!

*gives Nadja knife to cut the pumpkin pie* well, clearly somebody has to think of that! *hugs Nadja* that's a welcome hug!

Ri

Yay! I finally feel at home. I've been welcomed! Yay! Thanks Ri and Anto!

Adrienne

I didnt introduced myself either...anyway...I've always felt at home here anyway!

Awww....here I am Ryu!


Time to welcome you!

Welcome to PK Ryu! *Hand over Pumpkin Pie and Pumpkin Juice* and *Hugs* your welcome hug.

See you in HP Generator.


And Welcome to PK Adrienne!

*Hands Pumpkin Pie and Pumpkin Juice* and *Hugs* your welcome hug.

See you around.


I've been welcomed a long, long time ago. Hehe!

~Bec

P.S. I LOVE PK!!!!

Oh dear, and I'm not even the first to officially welcome Ryu *pouts*.

But I get to be a close second. *gives Ryu a big welcome hug*

And I'm glad that you took my advice and hopped aboard wonky!

Ri

Hi everyone,

Well I've been around for a while on the forums. I think I joined about 4 or 5 months ago. Anyway this is the first time I visited this thread so I thought I'd introduce myself. Anyway hi everyone my names Gemma I hope to get to know you guys.

Gems

Well, hello then Gems *gives Gems a big welcome to PK hug*. Have some pumpkin pie! Or would you prefer a nice chocolate chip muffin?

Ri

I haven't yet introduced myself! Um well I'm here since January 2004, so I'm pretty new but when I come here I knew already some of you, in fact I received some welcomes via PM, oh well it's nice to be here because you are all so friendly. My real name in Michela and actually I find Mirtilla, a nice name as username so I use Mirtilla as username everywhere in every forum where I am.

Cheers!

Mirtilla

Well, welcome to both Gems and Michela!! *hugs both of them*

I have only recently been welcomed myself...It feels weird to welcome others...

Anto

Hello Mirtilla! *hugs Mirtilla*

You're part of the Italian Quidditch team captained by Anot, right? I'm clairvoyant...
