Welcome
Hello Geekosaurus! Welcome to AboutUs.
It looks like you've made a handful of edits here on AboutUs, largely community reviews. Thanks for putting them into the "community reviews" section and not vandalizing the site in a way - you really made them constructive reviews that present themselves as reviews and I/we appreciate that. If you would like to incorporate the standard form for signing reviews we would appreciate that as well. This is...

Feel free to continue exploring the wonderful world of wiki and be sure to let us/me know if you have any questions (you can talk to me via the message link below). I wonder if you might want to add a little information about yourself on your user page? (You can see an example of this by clicking my name below.) Please don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like some assistance in accomplishing your goals on AboutUs and if you want some help or new ideas I've found this to be a nice resource. Welcome to the AboutUs community - it's great to have you!
Have a most wonderful day!

Hello
I added a category to you PersonalPage. Let me know if that is ok. Best, MarkDilley
Help!
Hey Geekosaurus, I would like it if you would come to the AdultContentPolicy page and participate in defining the direction for our wiki site, after all ItsYourWiki. If you would like to participate, go here and add your name like {{NotYet|need to look at this more}}. Please let me know if you have any questions... I am really interested in what you think about this, the issue and the way we are deciding it. :-) Best, MarkDilley
- No worries! Thanks for letting me know. MarkDilley
Malware stuff
Have you seen these Category:Websites that distribute malware - a start - but maybe something to consider. MarkDilley
- Great! No problem adding you to the category ActiveMember but you reverted me! :-) That is a very acceptable action to do in wiki. Best, MarkDilley
Hi Geekosaurus, have you seen about the RealPeople things we have talked about here? If not, could you think about them? Let me know your thoughts. Best, MarkDilley
- p.s. I moved your talk page back into the user: namespace to get some of the features of it. Like InternalMesseging, What links here, User contributions and E-mail this user (on the left). :-)
- OK, that's cool. I'll look into the RealName thing. Regards :-)
- cool :-)
I like your work so far! Nathan (talk) / 04:36, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- Cool. Thanks. :-)
Storyteller's Bazaar
Hello Geekosaurus,
Have you paid a visit to TheStorytellersBazaar yet? If not, please do. It's jam packed with all sorts of writing activities. Read some of the contributions and hopefully they will inspire you to contribute too. The more you contribute the better the site will become. Come and have a look and enjoy. Tanwir Shah
- Hi Tanwir Shah. I do enjoy creative writing, and since I'm still in high school, I get to practice there. I'll be thinking of stuff to write!
- Regards, Geekosaurus :-)
Help with Big Decision ... AboutUsLogo!
Hi Again Geekosaurus, the AboutUsLogo consensus process is continuing to progress. I've left you a comment at AboutUsLogo:Status/Geekosaurus that I'd love to get your thoughts on. Regards, Brandon
Hi Your Geekiness! I left you another comment at AboutUsLogo:Status/Geekosaurus. Do you have the page on your watchlist? Do you use your watchlist? I only discovered mine about a month ago, and I use it all the time now :-) Brandon
Nice to see that you're feeling slightly better about the leafy logo. I left you another comment at AboutUsLogo:Status/Geekosaurus. When I first get on, I always check my watchlist to see what is happening to the pages I care about. Also, I've changed my preferences to automatically watch any page I've edited. Your mileage may vary, but that combination has been working swimmingly for me :-)
I've changed my status to Yes on the Logo. And I figured out how to add pages that I edit and create to my watchlist. I'll be using that in the future, I'm sure. Regards, Geekosaurus 14:15, 5 July 2007 (PDT)
AboutUsLogo
Hi Geekosaurus, The AboutUsLogo ConsensusPoll has surpassed all it's GoThresholds and we will be turning on the DoneTimer as soon as all participants have been notified. This means that all participants now have the opportunity to check AboutUsLogo one more time, to make sure we haven't overlooked something. Please feel free to change the document and/or change your status, if need be. Best, Obed Suhail
WhoWeAre
Hi,
I would just like to tell you about the WhoWeAre consensus poll. This is a unique opportunity for all community members to discuss and decide what AboutUs is and more importantly what role we, the community, plays.
The discussion is still in its initial stages and there are a handful of people involved in this discussion. But it's not enough. Every one of us has a stake in this process. We all need to air our views. Our opinions will make a difference. We cannot and must not let a handful of people define us. We must speak out and contribute because we are being defined and I for one would like to have a say in how I am being defined.
Please contribute to this really important project. Without you it cannot successfully create a good definition of who we are. Tanwir Shah
NewSkin Beta Preview
Hello Geekosaurus!
We've noticed your contributions and are glad to be on the AboutUs team with you! As an ActiveMember your energy and ideas determine our future direction. One way that ActiveMembers stay "in the loop" is to participate in the beta previews of large new changes to the site before they are generally released.
Today we're starting a limited beta preview of an earthy NewSkin intended to reflect the alive and growing AboutUs community. The NewSkin is designed to feel wholesome and connected with the real world. This choice was made to reassure the many folks who feel that the internet is a "scary place" where mean people hide behind fake identities and shout insults at each other. We hope that the NewSkin evokes our values in a way that helps visitors and members alike feel grounded in true community.
We'd love your help putting the NewSkin through its paces! To give it a whirl you'll need to be logged in. Once you are logged in, go to "my preferences" | "skin" and select "design". Don't forget to then click the "save" button! You can always go back to the current skin by selecting "aboutus" via the same steps.
Your feedback on the new look for aboutus will help ensure that it has a maximally positive impact when we roll it out. Thanks for being a valuable member of the community, we look forward to your feedback on the NewSkin page!
Warm Regards,
the DevelopmentTeam
