2005-06-01 [pixish]: ! That is a great little intro ^__^

2005-06-02 [RiverStar]: Lerune this is a great idea! good job!

2005-06-02 [Ultiem]: all of us hope its successful

2005-06-02 [Lerune]: Thanks! ^_^

2005-06-02 [teptep]: good work there lerune, sorry I couldn't help.

2005-06-02 [Lerune]: No problem -- I understood. =o)

2005-06-02 [Rondel]: A wonderful introduction -- I can't wait to have access to the site, so I can introduce my daughter to some kindred spirits of her own age! :) I'm a bit busy myself, but if you could use any additional help, with writing or graphics, let me know -- I'm a slow sketcher, but I can whip out buttons like nobody's business. :D

2005-06-02 [Lerune]: We could use buttons if you ever want to add them. ^_^ And check your messages for a link -- I already sent you one. =o)

2005-06-02 [Mom]: Awesome [Lerune]...I wish My kids were young enough to join. =P

2005-06-02 [Malnu]: no kids here, but I thought I'd give you a thumbs up on the great idea. If my nieces or nephews ever decide to want to do something like this, I'll ask for an invite. *grin*

2005-06-02 [Kyrinn]: this looks fun! *hugs*

2005-06-03 [Ihsahn]: its a great idea =p

2005-06-03 [Lerune]: *beams*

2005-06-03 [Taxicab Messiah]: An Awesome Idea. : ) Great Job.

2005-06-06 [shotokan_gal]: Amazing idea. Not that I've got anyone to refer it to, but can see the need. Congrats on actually making a real idea come to life, hope it works out well.

2005-06-06 [ArchangelGabriel]: At the risk of seeming stupid - What age limits are you going to have?

2005-06-06 [Lerune]: Well, of course, it can't be ALL kids, because we need some people to help with maintaining the site, and the parents need to be allowed to be there, so there are adults, of course. There are also a few older kids there (13-15) to help with some of the Kids Only parts of Elf12, because they are young enough that the kids won't resent them, but old enough and responsible enough that I know they are reliable. So, it varies. 

2005-06-06 [ArchangelGabriel]: I see... How do make sure that the people signing the kids in aren't just the people your trying to keep out in disguise?

2005-06-06 [Lerune]: The site is an invitation-only site, and so far, this is not a problem. I okay anyone who comes there, and since I am a Guard here, I could check the IP of anyone I am unsure of. People from the Silver Years club have shown interest, and I have known most of them for ages, and I have invited some local kids whose parents I know personally.

2005-06-06 [ArchangelGabriel]: Cool, sounds like a relly good system. Is it built around the same core as elftown?

2005-06-06 [Lerune]: Yep. =o)

2005-06-06 [Stray Kitty]: So how would a kid with out a guardian or parent on Elftown join? Could they join?

2005-06-07 [Lerune]: I suppose so. As of right now, there are plenty of Guard to keep an eye on things. ;o)

2005-06-07 [*_Kandi Kid_*]: oh invite me my little sis is looking for a place to go!

2005-06-07 [tiliey]: If you need help with pretty things, I'd love to help ^^

2005-06-08 [Distilled~Angel]: this is a really great idea. i hope everything goes well with it :)

2005-06-08 [lil'squidgy]: i wana join!!!

2005-06-08 [Stray Kitty]: I would like to join also.

2005-06-08 [TheEvilHat]: the only thing i would want to join for is helping with reports and stuff

2005-06-09 [farawaygone]: I would love to join to help with anything at all.

2005-06-09 [Ultiem]: now if only i can send link id help with that...but if you want you can ask [Lerune] directly and she can send the link

2005-06-11 [Amber_71293]: I wanna join and i am 13 not 10

2005-06-11 [Ultiem]: ive sent you the link already

2005-06-11 [jolujkdsaf]: Can i join i'm 9 it sounds great!

2005-06-11 [jolujkdsaf]: Will u be able to log in on our old user on to Elf12?

2005-06-11 [Lerune]: I sent you a message about that, but just so everyone knows, the answer is yes. You will be a member of both Elftown AND Elf12. =o)

2005-06-12 [vondutch babe]: Elf12 looks really cool can i join?

2005-06-12 [Ultiem]: Ill see what i can do.. most likely

2005-06-18 [roobea]: ive got an interested seven year old here. How do i get an invitation for him?

2005-06-18 [Paul Doyle]: I have a few co-workers who MIGHT be interested in having their kids on elf12 *knocks on wood* No guarantees, though.

2005-06-18 [Lerune]: Paul -- that would be great. I have neighbors that have just moved and their kids are going to sign up as soon as their move is done. And roobea, I have sent you a message. =o)

2005-06-18 [Kyrinn]: I dont have any friends here with kids... O.o

2005-06-18 [pixish]: They dont have to be from here :-)

2005-06-18 [Kyrinn]: no no I mean in the actual town I live in.. SInce I had my son my single friends avoid me like the plague, and none of them have had kids yet...

2005-06-19 [Paul Doyle]: They have no idea what they're missing. Kids can be parasites, of course, but they're such exquisitely lovable parasites. One moment you get that really cute, heartmelting adorable grin---and the next moment they projectile-burp. But hey, children makes us whole, so there :-)

2005-06-19 [Kyrinn]: there were times I was expecting someone to come running though the door and wave a cross over my son when he was still burping up, man, Linda Blair has nothing on the projectile range of my little guy when he was a newborn...

2005-06-19 [Paul Doyle]: Little Patrick reminded me of Mauna Loa in Hawaii. Incessantly burbling "lava" and spit-up, never really an earth-shaking eruption :B  My leather jacket has a few faint permanent spit-up stains, during one trip to Philly when a single burp-rag frankly wasn't enough. Think of Mt. St. Helens, 1980, or Krakatoa, 1883. o_@

2005-06-19 [Kyrinn]: eeesh.... Mykael would do the little spit upsover the day, but a couple times it was Mt st helens, and all over my poor husband. and there would be no warning. Just URRRRRRRP and a mess...

2005-06-20 [Paul Doyle]: Hmmm, maybe that's their of saying, "Daddy, I love you THIS much!" :P

2005-06-23 [MR.mOE]: [MR.mOE] hi

2005-07-05 [domer]: ALL WOW A HOLE LITTLE PEOPLES WORLD WOW CAN I JOIN IM 18 :D:P

2005-07-05 [Ultiem]: unless you have younger siblings/children around 12

2005-07-07 [Raikyu.]: umm...whats this?i am 12....

2005-07-07 [Raikyu.]: so how do we get in...can we talk there..and send messages?

2005-07-08 [Jay Ladlehaus]: The problem is people don't check into Elf12 that much, so they often don't read their messages for awhile.

2005-07-08 [shotokan_gal]: Just out of interest, I'll offer to help if need be, have searches of elftown been done for the younger (and active) members, so they could be messaged and told about the community? Or do the organisers here prefer people to come to them? Just a suggestion, as I said, willing to help with my own suggestion.

2005-07-08 [shotokan_gal]: Not really young - or interested - enough no, sorry.

2005-07-12 [Jay Ladlehaus]: Be sure to advertise that the "Choose Your Own Adventure" section of Elf12 is up and running, which should provide some creative and entertainment outlets.

2005-07-13 [Particle Girl]: I'd like to help out with Elf12.

2005-07-14 [LRMMMM]: boo

2005-08-13 [*priestess kikyo*]: hi, can i sign up in elf12 for my younger brother? He's 8

2005-09-06 [Stephen]: Hey [Lerune], you can add me as a contact for an invite. :)

2005-09-25 [Vengeance_is _my_lover]: hey,i want to join elf12

2005-09-25 [Stephen]: Alright, I'll send you an invite.

2005-10-18 [Sagacious Turkey]: ...such a wonderful idea...

2005-10-30 [Pinkdonkey]: my brother wants to join ... do I need to create an account for him on Elftown first ?

2005-10-31 [Lerune]: Oh, no -- I can send you an invite to Elf12 and he does not have to join ET. =o)

2005-10-31 [Pinkdonkey]: Thanks very much, i've helped him and although he isn't very thrilled about having to write in English (we're french) or doesn't understand much to html, he's really pleased :D

2005-11-01 [Lerune]: Right now, the site is pretty much English, but we'd love to have translated pages added eventually so we can be more inviting to kids who don't speak English as a first language. =o)

2005-11-06 [Pinkdonkey]: I can translate into french no problem if ever you need any help =)

2005-11-11 [Stephen]: That would be great. :D

2006-01-06 [RoseAngel]: Is there a way my brother could join Elf12? He's 11.

2006-01-13 [Yuriona]: Had to make a small adjustment to the contact list since two members are practically inactive there now. ^_^

2006-02-18 [Yuriona]: Well considering it took you over a month to respond to this, inactive is a good description. :P

2006-04-25 [Ihsahn]: [Ihsahn] is back in action =)

2006-04-25 [Stephen]: You know, you can export things... and some member houses as well. /:

2006-04-25 [Stephen]: Hey! Hello Artsie! :)

2006-04-25 [Yuriona]: You have to be careful just what you export from elf12, especially houses of members who are minors.

2006-04-25 [Stephen]: Well, only the high crew can export houses. :P

2006-04-25 [Yuriona]: Maybe so but that doesn't mean those who can export wiki pages should. :P

2006-04-25 [Stephen]: Yeah, true. :P

2006-04-26 [Stephen]: Hmmm... this isn't really a conversation for this wikipage. XD

2006-05-18 [pixish]: Should we export this page?

2006-05-18 [Yuriona]: Hmmm... good point. I wish I had an answer though. ;)

2006-05-18 [Sunrose]: There's nothing on this page that can't be known outside of Elftown right?

2006-05-18 [Yuriona]: I don't think so.

2006-05-18 [Sunrose]: Then I think it should be ok :D

2006-05-18 [Yuriona]: Alrighty then...

2006-05-27 [Shannon Marie]: alright then.....................................................................................

2006-07-08 [immortal daydreams.]: this sounds kinda cool, i'd like to help out with elf12, i also have an almost 11 year old sister....

2006-07-09 [Stephen]: Really? Cool! :D

2006-07-09 [immortal daydreams.]: yeah, but i'm too lazy to message any of the listed people, LOL, ill get it done eventually....

2006-07-10 [Stephen]: Well, I'll message you then. :)

2006-07-10 [immortal daydreams.]: okay, thankees!

2007-05-16 [Paul Doyle]: Calling on all parents who may have bookmarked this wiki with mild interest in possibly joining Elf12 . . . if you still are interested, please feel free to join. Plenty of fun contests and activities for you and your children to be interested in :)

2007-07-31 [Yuriona]: That sounds like a good idea. :)

2007-08-01 [Paul Doyle]: I'll be back active on elf12 ASAP . . . just lots of stuff and now an out of season bug sidelining me . . .

2008-05-13 [Sagacious Turkey]: I've never been to Elf12... perhaps I should solicit some kids and tell them to go...

2008-05-13 [Paul Doyle]: Well, to be quite honest, any positive contribution to Elf12 would be GREATLY appreciated ;-)

2008-05-13 [Yuriona]: with emphasis on the positive aspect. :P

2008-05-14 [Sagacious Turkey]: I'll see if I can't find some aspiring youngsters...

2010-03-16 [Stephen]: Updated.

2010-10-23 [black dragon19]: hello people

2010-10-23 [Stephen]: Hey there. :)

2011-06-26 [Mortified Penguin]: I applied for Elf12, so feel free to accept it, people in charge there.

2011-07-04 [kians mummy]: Don't you think there should be something about the move on here? :)

2011-07-04 [Stephen]: Not yet, it's not 100% public. :P

2011-07-05 [Mortified Penguin]: I think it may be now.

2011-07-05 [Stephen]: So it would seem.. xD

2011-07-05 [kians mummy]: ok then
