Hi, I'm an INTJ too!

Welcome.
Are you, by chance, laconic, too?

**NoStoneUnturned** · 06-13-2009, 04:51 PM

Really? Then it looks like you're at the right place!
Welcome.

I fear all of these enthusiastic newbs are going to use up our supply of exclamation points ( ! ). More than once I've seen a long time member who planned on using one being denied due to these careless individuals. I think it may be necessary to create a rule governing the use of certain forms of punctuation by users of fewer than forty posts. Has anyone else noticed the indiscriminate use of quotation marks ( " ), colons ( : ), semi-colons ( ; ), brackets ( [ ] ) and even parentheses ( ( ) )...

...in these introduction threads? It's time we take action, before they are all used up and we are left to communicate using only periods ( . ), questions marks ( ? ), dashes ( - ), and commas ( , ).

Who's with me?

By the way, welcome to the forum, dan!*

*Note - For the record, my superior post count grants me the privilege of using both the exclamation point ( ! ) and the almost sacred asterisk ( * ). If I was you, I would not dare attempt using the latter until you have at least 2,000 posts to your name.

How is the asterisk almost sacred? Educate me.

I've missed these unwritten rules...

I dunno...those commas are pretty handy.

How ironic, considering I've been investigating Eastern Orthodoxy for several months. XD Thank you for the link.

It's what we do... After all... No one wants our precious punctuation marks to be wasted!

It's spelled "two". I'm holding out for the model III's myself. They are supposed to have "personalities"... whatever that is.

as used above, the the asterisk appears to possibly be an assterisk....

`!
(*)
