WTF?

[CameronCN]

So you write poetry? Your name does sound slightly familiar...have you been around Poets.org or The Critical Poet forums recently?

Anyway, welcome. We need more mature-type people around here. Mostly just dumb twentysomthings and teenagers as far as the eye can see...

It's another way of saying it. It's basically saying that a comment pertained specifically to you.

Anyway welcome to the forum! Have a flameproofing coupon.

It's mandatory that we offer these in case you require the services, click for a printable:

Hello person much older than me!

[Foxhound]

Welcome to DC from the second youngest member here!

In any regard, welcome and enjoy your stay!

There are more but basic research skills are dead

[Foxhound]

If you mean yourself, I think you're actually older. I also meant that by active members (so not including CrimsonWolf or someone like that)

[Tom Flapwell]

Baha'i? Cool. I'm not, but I rather like the faith, having studied it intensely for a high school report. Also, my birthday is the same as Abdul-Baha's.
