Can all the newbies introduce themselves here, please? I'm all happy that so many people are getting involved but to have a thread to introduce every single new person is sort of starting to get annoying as well is burying everything else and making it hard to follow any discussions. Right now there are more threads on the front page from newbies introducing themselves than actual discussion on anything else. So can try to keep it to one or two or even three threads, please (I know it is impossible to get everyone to post to one)? But can we try so we're not burying everything else?
Thank you.
Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

I agree!
And I will state, for the record, that I did not do an annoying introduction thread. I introduced myself on that "closing on 20,000" thread, I think. Anyway, I'll re-introduce myself here because I could still be considered new-ish, even if I have thrown myself into the boards with all my obsessive energy.
Hi everyone! Very pleased indeed to be here and be part of all this.

I know that some browncoats seem to get annoyed w/ intro threads, especially when they sometimes bump other threads off of the main page. I do not however think it necessary to start a thread & ask that new people to post in it.
I am overjoyed at the fact there are so many new browncoats turning up lately. New fans is exactly what this fanbase needs right now if we want any hope of a BDM sequel or any other sort of future for our 'verse.
We should all do all we can to make them feel welcome & encourage them to spread the word. I think expressing aggrivation over their intro threads will have a negative impact on their enthusiasm and willingness to post here. This site has been called the friendliest on the 'net by quite a few browncoats & I would hate to see some new people leaving feeling like others here don't want them here or are annoyed by them. I am sure no one else wants that either.
So, enjoy the influx of new people. Embrace it! Celebrate in the fact that our efforts to spread the word are working! New people are discovering what many of us have known for a long time, that Firefly & Serenity are fantastic sci fi & deserving of a chance to fly. We NEED these new fans a lot more then they need us. A little patience and courtesy will take us all a long way.
Just sayin'.

I agree, Browncoat1. I open the newbie threads eagerly, I wanna hear the shiny new stories, even if it's the same old story told for the millionth time!
I don't think there's any need to herd newbies into one tidy place. Newbies to the right, newbies to the left, it's all good!

I was one of the guilty parties that started a thread when I joined...I did not know I would "bump" anything off the main forum. 
I was welcomed with open arms, and have since put my two cents worth in several threads. I also try to visit all the newbie threads as I am still new myself. This IS the friendliest place on the web, made better in that we all share the same love. Welcoming newbies is fun! The more the merrier!

I just joined today. Unfortunately, I am a late convert to join the ranks of the Browncoats but I feel the passion for the show no less then the Vanguards of the Cause.
I am proud to call myself a Browncoat!

Greetings!
Scametti, if there isn't an "official" group of Browncoats in Oregon...start your own!
I am in Anniston, Alabama, and I think the closest one to me is the South Eastern Browncoats...there sure isn't one here!
