The New Introduction Thread

[staleincense]

Hey, I'm just a NIN fan who has lurked here before and have finally decided to create an account what with Welcome Oblivion coming up and all.

[Maury]

Oh hey my email confirmation to turn on my account finally came.

Hi dudes.
I am Maury. I was Maury on the old boards. Used to be "ruineR" back in the nin.com dboards days. Posted here occasionally. I've been mostly hanging out on Somethingawful.com and Collectedanimals.org lately, but I've been feeling a hole in my internet browsing and realized it's because I stopped coming here. So here I am. How's things?

[ipayj]

I'm Paige,
I really love everything Trent Reznor does.
I want to be a comedienne.
I work at Starbucks.
Go me.

[Terryana]

Hello all, I am Teri/Theresa. I was Terryana on the old ETS and am Terryana here as well. I have not been here for a while since I am a collector, was happy with my collection and there was nothing new on the NIN front (I like HTDA but could not afford to branch out into another area to collect). The announcement of a tour sucked me back into the forum. I enjoyed meeting up with other ETSers at the shows for dinner and hanging out etc. Glad to be back.

[artgirl9]

I am happy no one snagged my old ETS username since the re-launch.

I am sad that it looks like I'm starting all over again and I missed a lot. Hard to re-find my old ETS friends.

Welcome back! An old collector returns for NIN 2013! If you find your way to the Midwest on this tour, send a message!

[GrayscaleRain]

I'm back! :3 Same name as before from... February 2004, I want to say. Definitely, before I graduated in June of '04 and before With Teeth was announced. Has it really been that long?

[Fangster_]

Sup, ETS. Finally got my registration all the way through (I'll spare you of the embarassing song title puns I might have had in mind for here, you're welcome). Usually I've ended up here one way or another in my many sleepless nights of various NIN-research, and a while ago realized this place isn't terrible at all and proceeded to the proper lurking phase. Fully in now. Or can I be fully in before paying The Gold Price? SOON.

I'm a Finnish male human being who properly discovered Nine Inch Nails some years ago and it has since become my biggest passion in music. And anything Trent goes with that, quite obviously. Guy's a brilliant devil. Also a big rasslin' fan so I'll surely be contributing to that one thread ("That's it, I'm done with this shit" every week etc).

[stefler]

Hello ETS,
finally I register here. I'm Jens from germany and was made in the 70's. I am a music lover and know NIN since 1994. Collecting live recordings is a passion of mine.
I also like other bands like Frontline Assembly, Haujobb, Destroid, Depeche Mode, Foo Fighters, The Cure or Metallica.
I was very excited when NIN announced to return in 2013. I plan to see them in Paris this year. I hope they will play more shows in germany next year.
My fav NIN album is With Teeth and I love to anger my neighbours with the BYIT blu ray.
I love NIN over all. So I want to clink the glasses to genius Trent and NIN, because they're back.

@artgirl9 !! How come I'm just now seeing this post? wtf. EC Alum welcome back!

[elevenism]

I used to be eleven11. Lurked here for a couple years before finally joining up in 06 or 07, whenever the arg got rolling. i wasn't doing SHIT at the time and was able to waste days and days on it.
Someone snagged eleven11, so now i am elevenism.
i'm a standard issue left wing liberal democrat long haired book reading guitar playing freak, i suppose.
i made a couple of really interesting people here back in the day with whom i kept up for years.
I'm back for the HTDA and the NIN tour, and because you people come up with the GREATEST fucking fan-made compilations imaginable, and then there's things like when mofoboy came with all those rehersal soundboard rips.

[kel]

welcome, kiddos!

i've been here since '04, but was a lurker years before that (dating back to the sls days). i'm in my 30's now, so the nin tat on my calve is more of an embarrassment than anything, but i still rely on ets for credible music suggestions and what-not.

[vpintz]

Sup guise. Long time lurker, new poaster. Blame @sheepdean (I'm kind of a big deal). I'm a law (aka lawl) student and freelance journalist who eats, breathes, etc., intersectional feminism and anti-anti-ziganism. Also, I'm a huge asshole.

Welcome, you'll fit right in or get eaten for lunch.

the two hunky, sexy red sox/yankees bears having a moment? word. i haven't been around enough to figure out how to put it back.

[tristessa]

Well I'm a full blown noOb....love NIN ..will probably be a Lurker for a while :/

[rhet]

i used to lurk here a lot around the release of with teeth but i can't remember what username i might have used. ah well. its good to be back anyway!

[GavinCollins420]

Hey guys.
Been lurking the forms since the YZ ARG, finally decided to join.
The day I started listening to NIN happened to be the day after their last Scottish gig (excluding TITP 2009) in Glasgow 2007, and seeing them live has eluded me since. After the Wave Goodbye tour I thought my chance to see them live had passed, so when I heard they were touring this year, you can imagine my excitement.
Going to see NIN for the first time in August at the Leeds fest. Got a day ticket for NIN, exclusively. I don't have any friends who are NIN fans, so it's a solo mission.

You will not be the first to have done that. *waves*

[LenaMHJBKZ2]

Hey all I'm Elena. I've been a member of the boards since 2006 or 07. I've been a NIN fan since I was 10. And this is my first post since 2011...

[KarenLeslie]

Hi, I was an active member of ETS years back when all the excitement for With Teeth drove NIN fans to post like crazy on the internet. I had a different name, but I was only actively posting for a little while so I doubt anyone would remember (but it's cool.) Also used to post on the Spiral message board and NIN.com a bit, so I've done the rounds. Speaking of which, what ever happened to the NIN.com forums? Did they disappear into the aether?

Anyway, I've been a NIN fan for about 20 years now-- wow, I feel old just typing that, but I guess it's kind of impressive. My first NIN experience was hearing Head Like A Hole on the radio late at night on our local rock station and feeling a sudden need to hear more songs by the man with the interesting voice. The release of Come Back Haunted reminded me that I've been off the NINternet for a while, and I missed it. Happy to be here

[thelongcon]

Hello. I was kind of active around here in 2007 or 2008, I don't quite remember. Now I'm back. I don't remember what my username was.

[Bowie]

I'm T.J, I used to lurk a bunch years ago, especially during the months leading up to the release of Year Zero. I've only seen them twice, once during the Lights in Sky Tour and then again at Bonnaroo in 2009. Not yet sure if or when I'll be able to catch them this year, but hopefully something works out.

Glad to see the NIN online Community is still quite active and I hope to participate more than I did during the last go around.

[[parasite]]

hi all, i'm Spike, been a huge NIN fan since Halo 02, and loving HDA!
only seen NIN once that was when i went to Coachella 2005, that was the main reason i went! but a complete contrast to the usual wet UK festivals

[nowimdowninit]

Hi. I was somewhat82 on the nin.com forums. Now they appear to be gone. Not really sure. Had a lot of posts there, was in the Spiral. Been to every tour since Fragility. Hi, nice to meet you.

[allegro]

Welcome!!!

Hola, old not-so-active ETS-er from long ago (also Spiral & nin.com). I had been away for a few years there due to distractions (study/work/baby) but the new NIN stirred me to come back to find myself going "WTH happened to my account?!?" Nice new ETS all. Seems... quieter, but perhaps that's a good thing. Noticed fellow irish niner slave2thewage is still around HEY DUDE!

Me: NIN head from Limerick born in 84, married with kid now (wasn't on old ets). Game and Sound Designer. Fan since 98-ish with Further Down the Spiral bleeding my ears first. That was all she wrote. Also, Where's the donate button?

[ComaAlpha]

So uh, yeah. Adam Hall. Better known as ComaAlpha on almost EVERYTHING that is on the internet. I was around when the heirophant was still up. Don't know or even care why it went down. I've been on the former ETSs.

I play guitar, bass and video games. My three favorites are Chains, Nails and Manson in that order. In fact, I plan on getting a tattoo of the AiC sun logo, but remove the AiC in the middle and replace it with the shock bolt from the Antichrist album and remove the three Alice in Chains in the circle and replace them with nine inch nails in the Pretty Hate Machine font.

But uh yeah, hello.
