Greetings all, and thanks to wedealinlead for pointing the way...with his croocked finger! I'm new to posting, except over at Dan Simmons where I got banned once...do folks here ever get banned by the propriator?
Just finished reading The Wind Through The Keyhole...enjoyed it enough to start the DK series...then found out King revised The Gunslinger in 2003...wedealinlead says there's two schools of thought here: original DT vs Revised DT.
Sounds like fun.
Been posting a couple months but skipped this step. So I'm making up for it now.
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
Google, that's how I discover everything.
Who is your favorite character?
For right now, I'll say Tom Cullen. Only because I often say, "M-O-O-N that spells _____."
What is your favorite book?
Insomnia, it was my gateway.
How old are you?
29
Where are you from?
Born in Bradenton, Fl grew up in Cape Coral, Fl now in Columbia, SC.

"That which you think, becomes your world" Matheson
It's great to be on board
How did I discover The Dark Tower?
a) the book - I was gifted a Plume 1st edition waay back when (I was already a long time Stephen King fan at the time);
b) TDT.org - stumbled across an auction for a Glenn Chadbourne "The Crate" remarqued copy of CD's Shivers VI and was fortunate enough to win it.
Who is my favourite character?
Hmm, let me think about that for a nanosecond (maybe less) - ok, let's look left and say Pennywise together
What is my favourite book?
Hands down The Stand (the original edition)!!!
How old am I?
Sigh, just turned 50 last month (bugger!!!)
Where am I from?
Parramatta (Sydney) Australia.
Do I have a nickname?
Not so much, but Penny'll do just fine (or call me anything but late for breakfast)
We all float down here!
Welcome to the forum!
Oh, I missed this thread!
How did you discover the Dark Tower?
The books I discovered when I became obsessed with Stephen King. The website I found recently while hunting for birthday purchases.
Who is your favorite character?
Oy. No contest.
What is your favorite book?
The Dream Eater is my favorite book of all time... but Insomnia; the very first King book I ever read will always be my favorite King book.
How old are you?
26
Where are you from?
Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania
Do you have a nickname?
My friends call me Krys, my students call me Mrs. T... I make pierogies and my husband pities the fool.
It is very rare that any regular members are banned. It can happen, but generally it doesn't. On the rare occasions someone is banned the directors handle it...unless it's a spammer...I kill most of them these days. In fact I just got one now. We do not like to ban, really. It's a last resort...excepting those spammers.
Welcome everyone!
Welcome All!!!!

Don't worry, Bill

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we've never ACTUALLY banned Bill. We might have talked about doing it...no more than a few thousand times....a day...every day... but never banned.
LOL! I'm pretty sure that you can't ban "A Splendid One to Behold". I think it's written in the bi-laws somewhere between stating that all folks from Lettiland must read each and every post on the site and where it talks about how Jerome has the right to execute anyone that pisses him off.
Uhhh...I missed that bit about Jerome executing people. Are you sure we want to have it in the welcome thread what REALLY happens to those we want to ban?
Seriously though bans are almost unheard of around here.
