I've been here a little while and I've read back a lot of the stuff on the network.
Some of you are smart enough that you'll figure out who I am immediately but, I have to ask — really? Really??
You get on this network and you talk about your old lives like no one you know from back where you came from is going to show up and ruin everything for you.
And you talk like you don’t expect these Jorgmund people to hold some of that stuff over your head, either.
I’m sorry, but I’m a lot more private than that. You know? I’m smarter than that. I’m not willing to ruin everything by talking too much.
PS – Anyone who guesses who I am gets one of those shitty beers from the cafeteria dumped over their head. Mind your business.

Thank you.
Re: [still anon]
Glad I could help. If you're taking constructive criticism, one thing I've learned is that asking questions tends to go over better as an introduction. Unless that question is "what the fuck is wrong with you", I've tried that one and it goes over badly most of the time.

Most people here are willing to give new arrivals a bit of leeway, because we get that the on-boarding process is traumatic, but it's still a little irritating to be called idiot right out of the gate.
