I am not only new to NeoGAF, but also very new to the gaming world (although I am not very young anymore).
I hope you can help me with beginner questions.

Hi members, both new and old.

We've set this imaginatively titled thread up as a friendly, welcoming space for people to just say "Hi" and maybe share a few words about themselves. This was my introduction from the thread we created for staff members, it doesn't need to be anything of that size though, anything would be great.

Maybe tell us what sort of games you like, what games your looking forward to, what non-gaming things you're interested in and maybe even a little bit about your choice of avatar.

REMINDER: THE DEFAULT AVATARS WILL BE REMOVED SHORTLY SO YOU'LL NEED TO UPLOAD ONE VIA YOUR ACCOUNT AT THE VERY TOP OF THE PAGE OR REQUEST A CUSTOM AVATAR HERE - Official NeoGAF Avatar Request Thread (work in progress)
​

We actually have several hundred brand new members that have just been joined up (Neophytes), I've added a few links below so that newer members can find their way to threads that may be of use to them.

------------------------------
​

BASIC MEMBERSHIP TYPES

There are three main types of membership on NeoGAF which I'll give a brief overview on below. You may also see other types of members in the community but these are the "standard" membership types.

Neophytes - The absolute newest of members.

• Unable to create new threads. (Neophytes can now request to have a thread created on their behalf, follow this link for details.)
• Unable to send messages using the NeoGAF messaging service. Able to receive messages though.
• Unable to edit own posts after five minutes.
• All posts are unpublished until a member of staff validates and publishes the posts.
• Unable to enter NeoGAF Giveaways.

Neo Members - Have been seen to contribute positively to the forum.

• Unable to create new threads.

Members - Have demonstrated a sustained positive contribution to the forum.

• No member restrictions.

Although number of posts are also a factor in people moving from one type of membership to another, the reason we're not listing specifics is because it isn't solely based on that so somebody who has contributed positively could well be moved earlier than somebody with twice as many posts. Don't spam posts and expect to be moved earlier because it's very easy for the move to be delayed if we see that you're having a negative effect of the community.

Although being a full Member is permanent, in the general sense, it is possible for people to have rights removed if its deemed fit by the team. This would be unusual but it certainly isn't unheard of.

As some may already have noticed, we now have a Giveaways Tab at the top of the page, we're currently hosting our first giveaway and it's very much a work in progress but each individual giveaway can be set with a required minimum membership level rather than there being an overall requirement, so it's always worth checking there. Neophytes will not normally be able to enter though but as this one is a bit of test run for us, it is actually possible.

If you are a Neophyte and are wanting to contact staff for something and it isn't appropriate to use the Report Function (Reporting inappropriate posts) or the Error Reporting & Feedbackthread then you are able to do this using the Contact Us tab at the very bottom of the page or by using this email address - [email protected]

Although you may find that you have more or less privileges than other members with different membership types, it doesn't mean that one type of member has authority over other members, it's not a rank and should never be treated as such.

------------------------------​

Welcome to all members and thank you all for your contributions here, there's been a lot of support from the community here recently and we all hope that the you will lead by example for the new people rather than just relying on us to tell people what to do.

​

USEFULL THREADS

FEEL FREE TO USE THESE THREADS, THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE THERE FOR.​

• New Thread Requests, Full Members Will Post on Your Behalf (If you are unable to create your own thread because of your membership type, you can request to have that thread created on your behalf here.)
• NeoGAF 2.0 Error Reporting & Feedback Thread (What do you think of the new style forum? Have some ideas for improvements? Want to report faults? This is the place to do that.)
• New NeoGAF Moderator Intro/Social (Meet the new moderation team.)
• 'Neo' & 'Neophyte' Members - New Thread Requests, Full Members Will Post on Your Behalf (Want to create a thread but can't, let us know here and somebody will do it on your behalf.)
• Official NeoGAF Avatar Request Thread - Get Your Custom Avatars Here (Need a custom avatar but don't know what you're doing? Let the community help you by requesting one.)
• NeoGAF FAQ - Read here before emailing the staff (There's a lot of information here but it's all accurately titled so it's always worth having a look here if you do have questions.)

MOD NOTE - For your first post dont just put "Hi" or "Hey" or "Yo" or something. We get a lot of bots so to distinguish please make your first post at least a sentence to show you arent a robot. And we can learn more about you that way! Thank you.

Всем привет, у меня есть странный фетиш. Я хотела бы поделиться с вами, это возможно?

 

[Bloody5]

Hello,

PC Gamer and gameplay oriented player here.
Looking forward to the discussions on this forum.

 

[Lurrax]

Hey everyone,

Looking forward to visiting this site to catch up on gaming topics.

 

[DragonsBen]

I can't believe I'm finally in! I've been browsing for years. Happy I can finally post. Currently playing KCD2

 

[Hector Hall]

Hi everyone, new here, been reading for some years, since before the great cism, I play since the late 80s, 8 bits, 16 bits, until now. I like specially JRPGs (FF, Dragon Quest, Persona, Trails specially), hack and slash, adventure and RTS back in their glory days. Months waiting but my account is finally approved, hope we can have some laughs and share our hobby together.

 

[czczcz]

Hi I'm New Here

 

[Brodi]

Hi everyone, finally i'm on board! See u

 

[Alx!]

It's nice to join a forum again! I was a frequent browser of the ONM forums in about 2010ish, and when that went down I never really jumped ship to anywhere else properly. Dislike Discord and all other modern forum replacements so I'm enjoying being on a site like this again.
I'm mostly just playing Stardew Valley nowadays, though before I was a big fan of DOS point and click games, and I grew up from the Gameboy and PS1 era to the Wii era so I've got favourites all the way through. Contact is an underrated gem and Rugrats: Search For Reptar has been GOTY for 26 years. ;p

 

[Wilhelm_85]

Hi, everyone! Looking forward to talking about games with all of you.

Currently playing KCD2 on PC primarily, but dabbling in a lot of other stuff.

 

[RagnarokIV]

hello all

 

[Tunak3118]

Hi

 

[Great Auk]

Hello everyone! I've been reading the forum on and off for many years but finally decided to join!

I've been playing games since the late 80s as a little kid on PC when my dad taught me how to load games on DOS.

Today I like to spend most of my gaming time on the PS5 and the Switch for family gaming fun.

Nice to be officially part of the community!

 

[TurboDjango]

Morning from Australia!

Long-time lurker, excited to be part of the community. PS5, switch and just picked up M4 Air to play around with.

 

[[Tact]]

Howdy,

Been lurking for about six months now - looking forward to being able to join in on the discussion.

I've been gaming for about as long as I can remember.

I would say I'm predominantly a PC gamer. Although I was recently given a switch, so it's been fun to replay some old classics.

 

[kremiso]

Yo!

 

[Signalis]

Thank you for approving my account. Been a lurker since 2018 and now finally I'm part of the community.

 

[Hashassin]

Hello everyone, I like video games.
What a hassle to get an account here, I even forgot I made one.
Got approved today and immediately got the one month member achievement as well.

I guess it's for the best in the end, I've noticed this is a tight community. Thank you for having me.

 

[Nocty]

hey guys

I am Ukraine guy now living in London. My english is not good , but oh well

 

[_Blackberry_]

When do we get to start threads???

 

[AJUMP23]

When do we get to start threads???

I think after 50 post and a week or month. If you can last.

 

[clappedcheeks]

Finally made the jump from longtime lurker to a community member. I’ve been considering the jump for a while and finally thought fuck it what’s the worst that could happen? I’m an oldie, probably older than Topher so that’s saying something, and I still love gaming. I’m hoping to get stuck into some positive talk with fellow gaffers about the hobby that most of us on this forum really love.

 

[ger44]

Hi there,

I'm just going to continue lurking for the most part ad I only comment if I feel i have something to say.

Just wanted to say hi .

 

[Longcat]

When do we get to start threads???

Very eager. Great contributer or total disaster? Only time will tell!

 

[mackck]

Hello. I'm Swedish.

 

[Scott Hall]

Hello! I use to post on message boards in the late 90s/early 2000s - missed talking about the industry and games in general.

Currently playing Banjo-Kazooie on the N64 for the first time, alongside It Takes Two on the PS4. Both really fun.

 

[Queef Check]

Hello everyone, just wanted to wish everyone a happy day. #TrumpGaza

Hey everyone thanks for approving my account, I came over from resetera because they have become too political

Current things I’m really looking forward to is valves next VR headset and switch 2

Hello Gaf, long time lurker, first time poster. I hope I can positively contribute to the community.

 

[Invalid_Name]

Hey everyone, my account just got approved. Look forward to talking about games and hardware!

 

[johnyk]

hi members

 

[QuantumThermos]

Thanks for the (basic) approval

Been playing games since the mid-eighties - starting to feel old but really like seeing and reading perspectives here.

I keep hoping for a new MMORPG to pull me back into the genre - find myself gravitating to Warframe and Destiny and involved in some Discords for older players - not exactly the same as an old school clan - but scratches the itch.
