People were nice. ^_^ I didn't make a post introducing myself. I just jumped right in and started posting. People were kind to me. I also remember the little things about the site. Like how you could comment even if you didn't have an account. I'm glad they got rid of that. ^^;  |

I didn't like USM that much. I joined, stopped coming for about three months, and then ended up liking it. Made friends, had some things happen that really peeved me, just like the life outside of the box:P No one really messaged me, and so i didn't really feel welcomed. First to actually talk to me was IcyFire. We were both in a band, and so we had some stuff in common. She's still my USM sister right now, and basically my closest friend from USM.  |

Well...I was welcomed here...coz I was invited here by my honey Thunder *she so purty* I also knew Sweet Vixen too when I came here, as I had seen her posting on another site I am a member of (AboveTopSecret). But I think YOU were the first family member (apart from Thunder) I had for a while...yay Moonie!  |

I don't have a family here...I kept to myself a lot until recently. I don't know if there's anyone who considers me a friend, though I would like that. And I have a lot of respect for many people, because of reading their posts and comments :)  |

Well, when I found USM, I didnt at first know what it was all about. But learning quickly that it was a loving and caring site, I went with the flow.. lol :) The first people I talked to was Lady Dina and Corky, I immediately clicked with them and I still talk to them to this day, just not as much as I would like to though. But they took me under their wings and actually I was never asked to be in their families and they never asked... lol :) I cant remember if I called them my sis' first or they called me their sis, but either way they became USM family :D then from there I was asked or I said hey, your my sis! lol :) Good post :D *huge huggles* Love, Amanda  |

Things were a little different, people didnt really make their first post of im new here. Star Chazer was the first in my family and yes I still talk to her when we see each other. Some of the friends I had made when first comming here, well, we have drifted apart. Its sad for me, but seasons change :)  |

Some of the 1st people I met were Kiki Times (she had Times on her tag at the time) and Tessek the Quarren, and Mrs. Sass i think her name was (now my Aunt Sassy)  |

Yup still family with all that I was family with back then, lol.. Yup friends with most of the same people, cept a few of them have.. left the site.. *sniff* *big hugglies* and Love,  |

LOL! Oh Boy! I basically ran around leaving comments everywhere. Some people didn't appreciate them. I even had a few stories posted about me. This was back when you could use names and they would actually stay up for a while. My favorite was called "I wish the Hawks would just fly away!" It was about my husband and I and how are comments were sooo rude.It was deleted...lol! But it was hilarious! There were no pm's and chat, so friends were made on posts. There were no usm families. A lot of the people I new (3 years ago) have left. There's still a few here that I see around from when I first came here.  |

Some experiences have been nice. Some haven't. I think you guys should treat newcomers with open arms. I actually passed words with Sunshine because no one even acknowledges you in chat if your new. Let's be a little more adult than that. I don't have any family, but hey I'm use to it. |

When I first came here, I jumped right in making posts that really ticked a lot of people off, LOL, kind of like now, except when I first came on, I wasnt really thinking of the comments to my posts as people at first. I could get really awful but then one day st. pete says, FIRSTBORN, cant you say anything nice? Well I said to myself, Lordy these are people here, and I've been trying to be different since then. But My first friends on this site were ladyspirit_guide, Pam and songbird and thunderhead. Oh and rangerider. And cant forget King and st. pete.  |
