Hello there and welcome aboard, MewFool! It's great that you have finally decided to join us after lurking around for quite some time now!
Yup you can't certainly deny how awesome PC is. I'm sure you've seen it yourself that this place has tons of interesting stuff around so you will really enjoy hanging around in here. While discussing Pokemon and other things you could meet & make friends at the same time. Don't you worry, everyone is really nice and they won't bite, don't be shy to open up a bit and try to break out of your shell! :p
It would be really nice if you could tell something about yourself such as your likes & dislikes, what are the things that interests you the most and maybe an info about what had gotten you into Pokemon, what are your favorite games, Pokemons and etc. Anything really as long as it'll give a bit of a picture of what a kind of a person are you. And everyone would love to get to know you more better to be quite honest. :D
Since you've already like looked around, just go to the boards and discussions that you want to participate in. Your contributions to the forum are really appreciated and hopefully you will be an active member as well. We're not pushing you though as long as you enjoy this place and as everyone does, I think it's great that this place can bring people smiles! ♥
And so, if you need some help or if you have any questions regarding the board don't you hesitate to contact and/or approach me, my mod buddy, Megan or any of the staff member that you can see if in case we're not both around. We're here to guide you! :)
Make sure to get yourself familiarized with the rules as well if you don't want to get into any trouble! PC is quite strict to its rules.
I do hope that you enjoy your time here and I shall see you around then~
