Beware of bears !
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

This may be a record-setting first post. I'm not exactly sure what record, but surely no other first post has been as much like this... as this is.ttztotdca50 wrote:HAHAHA

Re: Beware of bears !
*clears throat* Please forgive my tardiness, I was having a rather good time at a convention in Denver this past weekend and haven't been checking for new posts. Still, as they say, better late than never.ttztotdca50 wrote:HAHAHA

Hello ttztotdca50, I am the resident dragon and would like to offer you a very warm* welcome to that slice of the internet we call SGT. This website contains threads with quick twists and turns and I would like to advise you to not try to hard to keep up with them. Please keep your hands, arms, and legs safely inside the website at all times and enjoy your stay.
*this instance of warm is actually hot**... very hot
**this instance of hot means that you are now literally on fire, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience

Re: Beware of bears !
We're getting so many new members lately, I'm having trouble keeping up with them. I step away from the board and will see several new names with multiple posts on different topics, and won't know where they first posted (or remember if they've been properly welcomed).Lasolimu wrote:*clears throat* Please forgive my tardiness, I was having a rather good time at a convention in Denver this past weekend and haven't been checking for new posts.

So ttztotdca50 -- and everyone else who has joined lately without receiving an Official Marsupial Welcome™:

Re: Beware of bears !
I know what you mean, it's just so difficult to set everyone on fire after you've been gone for the weekend and have a bunch of new posts to go through, I was only gone for 4 days. :p:BRWombat wrote:We're getting so many new members lately, I'm having trouble keeping up with them.

Re: Beware of bears !
Wombat and lasolimu,where are your priorities?
I mean jeeze,some people can't be away from their puters for more than 1/2 hr w/o getting the DTs. Look at those 'other' boards,"I'm on vacation at Disney and need wifi to keep in touch with my company,otherwise they might just go under w/o me".
