Hi! I'm new

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Hi! I'm new

Hi! I'm new around here, but I like what I'm seeing here so far! I like to play the tuba, create origami, ride my bike, watch musicals, and so much more stuff!  I just...need A LOT of explaining. I think I have figured a RP out, but may I ask what an SI is?

Welcome, Miserable-oil61. SI stands for Secret Identity, where Chatterboxers try to guess who is posting under a different name.

back to the Chirp at Cricket

WOO! WELCOME MISERABLE-OIL61, WOULD YOU MIND IF I CALLED YOU OIL?

Anyways, a quick rundown of the CB: 

CB = Cricket Chatterbox/The Chatterbox/Chatterbox

This Month/TM = MCUs and...general....uh, I don't really know. Just...like a dead-er version of CaC.

Chirp at Cricket/CaC = supposed to be for messaging Cricket&Friends. Buuut. THE KEY WORD IS SUPPOSED! IT'S ACTUALLY FILLED WITH THE MOST RANDOM THINGS EVER! SIs? Check! More random stuff? Cheeeck! It's also a place for welcoming newcomers. 

Blab About Books/BaB = Books. BOOKS. BOOKS. BOOKS GALOREEE!

Down to Earth/DtE = Randomness. AE threads. CAPTCHA threads. Some more randomness. 

Pudding's Place = NOW THIS IS WHERE I AM ACTIVE MOST OFTEN. ALONG WITH DTE. BUT ALSO. The Arts. This place is for the arts. Ski lodges. Art threads. Poetry. Uhh, what else is- right, crafts and music. 

Inkwell = THE SUPREME WRITING AREA! IT'S BEAUTIFUL :')

Also: RP = Roleplay; SI = Secret Identity [don't. give. yourself. away.]; AE = alter ego, an imaginary friend [~*endermen* Like me, uh, hi! I'm Voidwalker :)~]; Ski Lodge= a murder mystery story;  I don't believe there's anything else, right.; Solo Writes = just stories :) 

Also -I just realized, my debate/speech classes are named DtE. 

Coincidence?

I THINK NOT!!!!

Anyways. I'm most active on Pudding's Place on the TLK thread [which I kind of run, I guess.] and any AE threads that aren't AE Adoptions. 

Here are my AEs: 

~Voidwalker~

~Aislynn~

Stargirl [Adopted from Jubilee]

Viria

and

MXXLIGHT

[Moonlight] 

:D WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, WELCOME TO THE CB!

Side note: I know I type like a child. I promise you I am not a child and wholeheartedly 11. I swear on the River Styx that I am 11 years old at the time this is posted. I type like a crazy child for the fun of it >:D

Welcome to the CB! You might find the Ultimate Guide to the CB helpful: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/443573

It covers a lot of the things you've been asking about! tmw also answered some of them, but I'd like to make one small correction... AEs (alter egos) aren't really "imaginary friends." They're more like characters that represent sides of yourself, and it's generally recommended that you only have 1-3 of them if you make them. (Which you don't have to!) They're usually CB-specific characters that you use for activities on the CB, like going to ski lodges (murder mysteries) or AE balls. They're not a catch-all for all of your characters :)

Welcome to the CB Miserable-oil61! I know I'm late (what being on vacation does to my CB time :( ) but it is great to meet you! I can't wait to see (type) you around! Here are some of the abbreviations/things that are said that might not make sense on the CB explained:

RP: Role Play

AE: Alternate Ego - though we turn them into characters. Mine is Glimmer - 

EYO! Nice to meet ya Miserable-oil61! 

That was her - she speaks in bold.

Sure do!  

SI: Secret Identity (though I know Admin and th3mysicw0lf already told you that) 

Ski Lodge: Basically our style of a Murder Mystery  

Solo-Write: A story that everyone has one (sometimes more) characters in and controls them in a certain setting following a plot line. Basically, everyone makes there own characters and they become part of a story they control. (Okay...that one wasn't a great explaination - opps.) 

CAPTCHAs: The little codes we enter to make a post - but we turn them into creatures/characters like we do with AEs. Mine is Snipe, a talking snake. At the moment they are saying:

<inymz> Any Music? Hm, I'm glad your getting into the arts, Snipe. 

Lizards: Sort of like saying 'guys' but being encluding to all genders. Or we're are just talking about regular lizards. You'll know which ones though when you see it <3

And, uh, yeah! I think thats about it! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I'll be sure to type you around!
