Hello To All

**Fergie1** · 03-26-2007 10:00 PM

Welcome.

I mainly would like to know, if you have not much experience with Lucid Dreaming, why have you gone and taken ownership of the site?
I mean my first guess would be all you want to do is make money from it.
If nots the case then an extra Welcome.

**LucidDreamGod** · 03-26-2007 10:13 PM

Just curious, how do you hack your own body’s sleep patterns.

Welcome to our site, I hope you don't fuck it up. (sounds like you probably won't)
EDIT: oops, I'll PM you. or I guess you will have already read this so... yeah just delete it.

**Lunalight** · 03-26-2007 11:27 PM

Hi, I'm also here just to say my Welcomes and Goodlucks and Nice-to-meet-Yous. I sure hope that under new ownership this site can flourish like never before!

**Talon** · 03-26-2007 11:38 PM

Asher...
It is a pleasure to have you aboard as another DV contributor as well as mod/owner.
I have already seen and and like some ofthe changes, especially those to the reply section. I will be pming you with my questions of web design lol. That's what I am going to school for.
Once again Asher... tis a pleasure!

Seems kinda redundant to keep welcoming you but it feels really good be wanted and all that jazz. As long as there are no huge changes to the setup of the site and such, i think everything will run fine.. Not really thrilled to hear about the ads but I mean what can you do?

I think the most accurate response would be to channel Victor Kiam and say that I liked the forums so much, I bought the company.

Lots of ways to do this. The one I'm most familiar with is changing from an "8 hours in a row" pattern to one with more rests during the day, but for much shorter periods. As always you can find a good overview at Wikipedia. I've tried the Uberman sleep cycle a couple times. Right now I'm taking 2 or 3 naps per day, with one longer sleep at night for a few hours at most. For years I got a regular one nap per day. Perhaps if there is enough interest I'll setup a special forum just for folks interested in this.

**Joseph_Stalin** · 03-27-2007 12:17 AM

Welcome.

I wouldn't mind the ads if they were, as you have said, not extremely intrusive and such. Perhaps disabling ads for members after an activity level of a set period of time (ie, 6 months), would be a more attractive prospect.

Polyphasic sleep thats cool, I've always wanted to try but I don't think it would work out, because I've got school and all, you should definitly talk with Placebo he is into that stuff too, he has tried polyphasic sleep, he even has a blog about it I beleive, I'm interested because of the vast amount of opertunitys to do DEILD in.

**White Shirou** · 03-27-2007 12:28 AM

Hey asher... I don't feel like timing could have been better for me, as I am a newbie. This way I feel like I have a special connection that I didn't have before. It just... it moves me.

...

Well, no it doesn't, but it is convenient... in a way...

Hmm.. sorry my welcomes are not more... welcoming.

Ads are fun to click on...

Just sell the pink bunny vibrator on ebay.

**Klace** · 03-27-2007 02:35 AM

Hey Asher!
Welcome to the forum, glad to finally read your formal introduction.
I don't mind advertisements one bit, so long as they are used in a neat fashion.
IE: Not popping over everything and disturbing us, ala Google Adsense.

**Man of Steel** · 03-27-2007 02:54 AM

Well, like White Shirou, I am relatively new to the site, so it is nice in a way to have joined just before a major change in administration. Anywho, welcome to Wonderland!

As for ads, I don't mind one bit. I've got a nifty little plugin for Firefox, Adblock Plus, that takes care of that for me. So, carry on, and good luck with all the technicalities.

I'm sure some people may not value that as much as others.

Personally I'm not worried about the change, see you 'round the forum Asher.
