Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hello everybuggy. I'm

Hello everybuggy. I'm new here to the Chatterbox! I have been getting Cricket for about three years, and I am completely OBSESSED with it. Everyone seems so friendly, and I'm super excited to meet other kids who have the same love for reading and writing as me.

I'm a little lost right now, so if anyone could give some navigation help that would be very appreciated :)

Thank you! I hope I can get to know you all a little better! 

 

Welcome, Soph! We're pleased to meet you. You can click on any of the sections of Chatterbox, then look for Reply to reply to any specific comment. I'm sure others will explain it better than I.

Hi Soph, I'm Daphne. Welcome to the cb! I'm kinda new myself but I never really made an introductory thread. Oh well! I think there was a thread about navigating the website for newcomers somewhere. I'll post the link later if I can find it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the cb and have fun! :)

Squeak: *ahem* Welcome, welcome, human of green Earth! I am Squeak, a intelligent mouse who finds a love of chocolate carrots when a certain somebody *coughcoughDaniecoughcough* turns me into a purple unicorn.

Danie: *frowns* You need to get that cough checked.

Squeak: Yes indeed, my disgusting human twin! Unlike you, I am the first intelligent creature on Earth, the second being dolphins.

Danie: WUT? DOLPHINS?!

Squeak: Yes indeed, Dolphins I said.

Danie: Anyhoo... It's nice to meet you, Soph! Chatterbox is filled with nice people *coughcoughbesidesSqueakcoughcough* and they would all like to see you!... that sounded really creepy.

Squeak: Oh, and you might notice the crazy alter egos on here. And I am very proud to say that I ain't any of them!

Danie: You are part of Danielle's personality. So am I. So stop acting all fancy pancy.

Squeak: Humph.

WELCOMEEEE!!

Oh, right. I made a whole thread on it- http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/158616

That should explain mostly anything. To reply to something you can click the small "reply" option on a comment, or you can go to the start-of-thread comment and look at the bottom right hand side and click "add new comment."

Anyway, welcome to the CB! I'm St.Owl, and I also have an alter ego- Devil Owl (saay heellooo!)

Dev: ...hi. Nice to meet you. EAT MAH DUST, CHUMP!!! *fires brussels sprouts randomly*
Me: Eerr, sorry. She's rude. Oh, and about the CBer guide- it's a bit outdated. If you saw anything mentioning Saint Owl, she's gone now, and if you saw anything mentioning Agent Nightcat or DNA, they're both gone too.

Again, welcome!

Hi, Soph! Welcome to the CB!

My name is S.E., and I have been on the CB/Old Cricket Library for 2 years coming on June 16th! Yay! Well, the CB is awesome. Truly.

If you want to rant about TV or singers or movies, head on over to Pudding's Place. Oh, and there's a thread at the top by T.O.N. Don't ask questions. Join. It's the Ski Lodge Murder Mystery. Quick. GO! For example, I may go to Pudding's Place to rant about my love of I Love Lucy.

Blab About Books and Inkwell are for the obvious, and other stuff is for other stuff.

Alter Egos are basicly characters people make that display a different version of yourself. Well, gotta run but talk soon.

My birthday is tomorrow. I want to get to know you soon!! I SHOULD REALLY STOP WITH THE SHORT SENTENCES NOW. Bye, and enjoy your stay!! *happily dances out the door singing "I Feel Pretty"*

Ello there, Soph! You have successfully found the ultimate haven for young readers and writers all across the globe. I'm Nora, and singing is my life! I'm 14 years old and a freshman at a performing arts high school. The Chatterbox is kind of an escape from the reality of the world around you. There's always something fun to do! Write stories and poems, discuss your favorite movies and songs, recommend books, play games, talk to the buggies, make suggestions...and about a million other things. I hope you feel welcome here, and enjoy! {:

Hi, Soph! I am the Chocabookaholic (Choca for short). You'll be able to tell from my name that I adore chocolate and books, but I also adore: 1) Randomness (if you ever participate in the Fictional Problems, which I originally invented, you'll see what I mean) 2) Writing 3) Poetry. Have fun around the CB!

Welcome, Soph, to the wonderfully wacky world of CB!!! Feel free to talk about whatever you want- cause you'll probably find someone else who loves it too! One good way to get to know the CB is to surf old threads (posts), or just ask questions as you go along. 

By the way, I'm Abigail A. (not my real name, just my CB name). I'm a reader, writer, thinker, biker, homeschooler and all around nerd. Pleased to make you're acquaintance!

'Ello, Soph! Welcome to Chatterbox Land!

*fireworks go off*

You'll love it here!

 

As for navigation...

 

This Month is for discussing this month's magazine.

Chirp at Cricket is for games and collaborations.

Blab about Books is for talking about good reads and some S.I.'s (S.I. means Secret Identity)

Pudding's Place is for theatrical stuff, murder mysteries, RPs, and more S.I.s.

Down to Earth is for real life issues / subjects, and also for updates and notices by the other CBers.

Inkwell is for writing storries and lots of RPs. (RP stands for role play, if you didn't know).


Hope I helped, and welcome to the CB!

Hi Soph! (And you too Daphne!)

I'm Katie- a cat-obessed, book-loving writer. Oh, and also a fangirl. 

You're right about the Chatterbox- it is a great place! My favorite is personally the Inkwell, but Puddings Place is a close second, with the Ski Lodge going on.

You probably don't know what a Ski Lodge is. Don't worry. Neither did I. In fact, I signed up for one and then didn't check on it for a long time :). Go to Pudding's Place and check out the thread titled, "It's been a long, long, year..."

Anyway, I hope you like the Chatterbox!

Hello, Soph! I'm Ruby (after a Pokemon character), sometimes known as T.O.N. (a.k.a. The Omnipotent Narrator). Welcome to the Chatterbox. I'm one of the older CBers and one of the few boys. I don't post as frequently as some other people, but I read most of the threads. 

The guide for new CBers is right here:

Hey, Soph! Nice to meet you! As you heard, I am Savvy's amazing sister. As you can tell already, I tend to use too many exclamation points. My hobbies are similar to my sibling's. I also am girly, a huge Swiftie (I'm too overly obsessed. More than her), and love Minecraft, reading, writing, music singing, and Percy Jackson plus HoO. Somethings I do she doesn't are play piano (she instead does trumpet), musical theatre, and probably some other stuff I can't think of right now. My capatcha is Gordon. I hope to see you 'round!
