Welcome,New Members!!! :)

~We are glad to have you! Now that you have made an account-hopefully started an Intro Thread,telling us all about yourselves-read the BLUA,Greenlighter's Guide and the NMI Forum Posting Guidelines,you are probably ready to get your Bluelight on! Excellent!!!

~Some of you may have questions or problems getting started...NO WORRIES!!! :D

~The NMI Adoption Program is here to help.
We are compiling a list of volunteers to "Adopt" you-you know...show you the ropes, answer any questions and help you navigate the site until you feel comfortable enough to get out and start posting.

~As we are implementing this today,November 10,2011,some slight changes will be made as more and more volunteers and those of you wishing to be adopted, sign up.
For now...if you wish to be adopted simply send a PM to myself skillz~4~thrillz, JoshE, OverDone or ocean and we will add you to the list and make SURE that you get adopted.
You can also post your request here-along with a brief-"about me", nothing fancy, just to give us an idea of what you are into so that we can try and match you with the best BL parent!!! :)
The same goes for those of you who wish to volunteer and adopt your very own Newbie!!! <3 You can PM any of the NMI staff listed above or post a little something about yourself here,in this thread ! :) It is almost too easy!!!
Give us a couple of days to get this machine up and running.
In the mean time-I have plenty of time on my hands and am more than happy to take on ANY Newbie who wants to be adopted.
Just drop me a PM.
I will get back to you within 24 hours MAX!!!!=D

Much peace and love.............................................skillz <3

Hey there :)

I'd be more than happy to adopt any newbies. I typically hang out in the drug discussion area, mainly the dark side, and around NMI. I'm friendly, open, and I'm more than happy to answer any questions that any of you newbies have for me ;) I'm also more than happy to show you around the site. So feel free to add me as a volunteer
 
I am currently seeking a padawan to educate in the ways of the force.

And by that I mean a Greenlighter thirsting for knowledge of the site that I love.

I spend most of my waking hours in Basic Drug Discussion, which is generally the first point of call for newcomers. I'm joyfully putting my hand up to adopt so that perhaps there will be less threads in there to close in the first place ;).

I kid.

About me:
BDD moderator from the great continent of Australia. I have recently cut back my drug use drastically from ridiculous Benzo and opiate use causing several near-fatal overdoses. I post all over the board, but mainly in my hometown of BDD where I live in the social thread.
 
^ Wait, You're from Australia? Holy shit haha, I didn't know that! Awesome dude!

I'm also up to adopt any noobs.

I'm JoshE, from Australia and am down for pretty much anything. I've been on Bluelight since 2009 am now a s/mod..You'll see my posts around the board but will mostly see me around NMI. Welcoming you guys is pretty full on :p
 
Hello Fresh Greenlighters, and Fellow BL junkies, I am officially volunteering to adopt some green!

Im Neko, i'm pretty much BL's official hipster/artfag and am currently Modding Second Opinion(SO) and am what some might refer to as a "Lounge Rat".

I am heavily involved in much of the community are of Bluelight, such as Second opinion(a great place for artsy talk and sharing advice on a number of general topics), The Lounge, home to probably the stranges sense of humor ever, its home to bluelights almighty Nudie Thread which i also actively participate in. Keep in mind that users who are still in the greenlighter status cannot post in The Lounge untl they are an offical Bluelighter when they hit 50 posts.

I also post my way around The Dark Side, Healthy living, and Sex Love and Relationships putting my two cents in where i can.

Although i have only been on the website for 2 years(nothing compared to some of my fellow BLers) I have been around recreational drug use for most my life, and have been experimenting with drugs since as young as 13(14 yours of my life, you do the math). I dont contribute to many of the focus forums these days, or many of the other drug forums but i actively use them as resources for harm reduction in my personal drug use. I am a pot smoker number one and dabble in other things recreationally like psycs and some stims. But I'm also working on my Masters in Art education so i I try to practice a good work ethic of work hard and then play hard, but not too hard.

Im a very open, friendly, love nature and the arts, and love to laugh.

Its strange, I know that was terribly long winded and yet i could go onnnnn. So who wants to play? =^.^=
 
Hi newbies, I'm Oxide. The pleasure is all mine.

I'd be happy to show someone the ropes. I am one of the moderators on the Basic Drug Discussion forum, (feel free to stop by there if you like, awesome place.) and wouldn't mind mentoring one of you newbies at all.

Did I mention I'm pretty horrible at self-descriptions?

I would be willing to help. Please excuse my newbism by knowing that I have lurked this forum for a little over 3 years. Basically since I started getting rx drugs for my back pain way back when. Anyway, I would be more than happy to help. I have nothing but time when I am at work. I'll even give out my AIM username if one so wishes to talk to me more immediately. :)


Edit:
AIM is Aveoturbo.

May as well put it out there.

Newbs, ask me your questions!

Excellent!!! in the 2nd post-which will serve as an initial list o volunteers,I have linked your username to your profiles. That is why they show up in blue. Just an FYI...you can update your profile and add your IM contacts IF you are comfortable with that. No worries.

Now...I say we hit the social forums that we all frequent and let them know that they Adoption Program is up and running for volunteers and those looking for adoption alike.Please include that if anyone is reserved or shy that we can keep the whole thing confidential...I say this bc when I first joined I was afraid of EVERYTHING. No one needs to feel as if they need make anything public. Just make sure PMs are just that-PRIVATE messages and we will keep it that way for any party wishing to do so. <3
Also...I am going to be including the "NMI AP" (New Member Introduction Adoption Program) in my welcomes. Feel free to do the same. I think this roll out of the NMI AP could be something very special-productive and full of PLUR and learning for adopters and adoptees alike!!!
Thanks for all who have volunteered...it may take a week or 2,but I BELIEVE we can get this thing BOOMING!!!

MUCH PEACE AND LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!...............................skillz <3 =D <3

Curious, has this person been addressed?

Good eye!!!
I actually sent him a PM earlier-maybe 4 hours ago. if anyone receives contact and GS wants to be adopted-and requests a specific adopter,please either post here or PM me.
Excellent job,aveoturbo...this is what it will take to make this work!!! Feel free to PM him yourself. The more love we shower our new members with,the more important they KNOW they are.

also...the list will be updated as time goes on within the thread-meaning,we will not always rely on the 2nd and 3rd posts as a check list-but that is to come. for now,we need to wrangle up some noobs.
If they inquire as to what this so called "adoption" means-it is simply a chance to have one on one with a seasoned BLer so that a noob can make as much or as little of it as they choose. Some have many questions...others will only need a few answered before they are on their own. We are all different-spanning the length of the color spectrum and beyond.
Thanks again for your attention to detail,aveoturbo!!! You ROCK!!! <3
Much peace and love.........................skillz <3
 
Okedoke, I just PM'ed Glen as well. I think I may create a "standard" intro PM for any newbs who have questions. Just a thing that is a quick rundown of the forum and some links of importance.

I followed suit with Badfish45 and added thread in the BDD linking people to this thread :)

You guys are on the money!!! KUDOS...

aveoturbo-I'd be interested in partnering with you on your "standard intro". I think you say a lot of smart things and I am not trying to weasel in,I just think I have a LOT to learn from you. So if you are interested...PM me. If not-Do your thing! :)
no worries,no hard feelings. just a thought.

badfish-you are one bad fish!!! :D I am finishing up an important PM and headed to your link in TDS!!! Good work,we recommend TDS to A LOT of newbs-same w/ BDD.
Really great job guys!!!Truly! <3 Remember to include your link in any welcoming you may do...that is my strategy!!! This project is already more than I dreamed. Thank you all for your time and enthusiasm,ideas,work,dedication,ect...I love your guts-everyone of you =D

MUCH peace and love...........................skillz <3
 
Hi Everybody,

It is time to give back to my beautiful Blues-lit community that welcomed me with open arms 5 short months ago! At your service and at your side, noobs. I generally like the lighting over in The Dark Side but I will do my best to direct you down whichever hallway calls to you.

Mods, is there a way for us to know who has been adopted so that we don't all barrage the same person?
