I figured since we're all relatively new to this forum, maybe we should have a thread to get to know each other a little better. I'll start off... My name is Jeremy. I'll be 33 soon, but I still love this book series. I live in North Carolina, in the United States, with my wife and son. I've been a fan of John Flanagan for a little over a year now. I work as a LAN Administrator at a medical hospital in the area. I am also working on writing my first novel. I have it written, but the publishers wish to have it in a different Point of View, so I'm in the slow process of rewriting it. Anything else you want to know, just ask.

Hi Denali! Welcome to the boards.
Right now, there's not a lot of activity on the board, but when we get more activity, I will probably take you up on your offer to help moderate the forum.
I love the idea of a Wiki. What do you have in mind?

I've actually just created one. I'll make you Administrator if you want me to. Here's the URL: oaklepedia.wikidot.com

Thanks for the link. I just checked it out. What will be the difference between the Wiki and this forum? Will there be any bleed-over in topics and/or posts? It'd be nice to utilize the strengths of both, if possible.

Well, I could add a link to this forum, and you could add a link to the wiki. We could become partners. The wiki would be for information and in depth articles about Ranger's Apprentice and the forum would focus on discussion, fanfiction, and socialization. I could link the wiki's forum to here. There could also be a section for the wiki discussing how to better it, wiki projects, etc. What do you think? It's just an idea....

Sure, that's a good idea. I'll look into what it takes to add "Affiliate code" to this forum and we'll get something set up.

Alright cool, I'll add the URL to the Wiki. Oh and could you make an account on the wiki, I'll make you an administrator if you want?

Oh, I also have another good idea. As we build up the forums and wiki, we could aslo make our own website. It would be the connecting point between the forum and wiki, but we also could make other projects too, especially as we grow. Eventually, like Shurtagel (didn't spell that right , we could ask John Flanagan to answer questions.

Cool! I like that idea. I've written to John Flanagan twice already, but haven't received any responses, so we'll see where that goes.

Oaky I'll start adding content then. I think it will turn out good because there aren't really any Ranger's Apprentice Forums, Websites, and very few wikis. We can build something that brings Ranger fans together.

So I was just 'lurking' around on the net for more stuff about RA and I came across the forum, I haven't been attached to a forum for a few years, so I figured this is a good place to start up again.
I'm Yahyel and I'm 21 and I'm from Australia. I'm up to the 8th book at the moment. I got into RA from a friend and ever since about 2 months ago, I can't get enough!

It's great to have you join us. We're still a new forum, but hopefully more will join and the activity level will rise. I know what you mean about the Ranger's Apprentice series. I couldn't put them down!
