Yep, so I'm new. This wasn't my first post, but I got a little (read: too much) over-excited to talk about singing death robots in space. That's an awesome conversation that I'm happy to join anyday.

Also, quick question...How can I link to a QC comic, but without the whole url. Unless there is a preferred method for quote a comic.

Like this:
My favourite comic

and to save you quoting my post to examine the code, it looks like this:
[url=http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=637]My favourite comic[/url]

In other words, you need the whole url, but it doesn't have to be visible.  A common mistake is to put the url into "quotes" as in html; but this is not html, it's BBcode (Bulletin Board code), and the quotes break it in this forum software (some other forums accept quotes).

You can insert the url tags, on their own, or surrounding highlighted text, by clicking the icon of the world above the input box.  If you change the "url" to "iurl" in the tags, the linked page is opened in the same window instead of in a new window.

Hi! I am also new! We can be new-friends! I probably woulda launched right into the comic discussion, too, if I didn't have weird social anxieties that make me have to have at least two replies before I go elsewhere hahahahaha.

Singing death robots in space are probably the one thing in the world that everyone should get excited about and they should always come first. Always.
