Hello
Thank you for bumping this up and I understand because of the warm welcome. I'm happy you have been welcomed.
Well, it's good for newbies to have this option especially if they are shy and they need a boost of confidence

Absolutely

It's wonderful to hear that you felt welcomed on all the boards you posted at.

Thanks for letting us know, Brienna.

It was different for me when I joined many years ago. While there were less members and boards back then, I still felt intimidated and a thread like this would have helped. I remember I got told off for double posting. But everyone is generally nice and kind so I kept coming back.

I love hearing that boards are so welcoming!

I got told off for supposedly making a drug reference. The mod wasn't aware that some Canadians call a winter hat a toque, and thought we were referencing something else.

[Mazza d'Evill]

Is the word toque also used for some kind of drug? Never heard of the word, btw.

I also felt very welcomed at the boards I first visited! If I had felt somewhat lost, which I can totally image with so many boards and so many members/moderators etc, and if I wouldn't have been this familiar with forums already, I would definitely have visited this thread and a first friend (FFFF )

[Chris]

Toke means to smoke, usually drug related. she thought toque was a creative spelling to try and fool her.

[Millie Mae]

^^^^ That's hilarious! I always call them toques too.

Like for me in Canada on my end it's cheques, not check...
