Hello!
« on: 10 Apr 2011, 10:54 »

Well, since this is the "Hi, I'm new" spot and I ought to introduce myself, here it goes. I'm Layra, a soon to graduate student in Computer Science and Engineering. My friend found Questionable Content and said it was a must read for myself. I then proceeded to play "catch up" by reading as many of the strips from start to finish until I had caught up with the latest. Needless to say, it took a long time and I spent many days reading QC instead of working on my homework. Oops. Anyhow, this seems likes a fun place to be and the conversations seem to be cool.

Happy reading (and maybe posting). Hopefully this is the first step to graduate from the "noob" status!

EDIT: I should probably mention that I often troll forums just because I find them interesting. This is the second forum I have ever actually taken the time to join. End EDIT.

I should probably mention that I often troll forums just because I find them interesting. This is the second forum I have ever actually taken the time to join.

Reading without posting (or joining, I guess) is called lurking;  trolling is quite different and a bad thing  - just saying so you don't get confused.

Oops! Thanks for the clarification. I'll continue to lurk and avoid trolling.

I should have given a link as well, I guess.  You are, of course, welcome to post if you have something you want to say - but read the sticky threads in this sub-forum first, which talk about the rules (there are a couple more in the QC Discussion sub-forum, if you plan to go there).
