Welcome to The Rainbow Community
First off, I would like to state this is no way, shape or form, the official welcoming thread, this is basically a welcome from the friendly neighborhood Community Moderator. I decided to redo my Hello, introduction to make it more informational, to allow the community and it's members to get to know me more. I will also spread some useful information about the site and help you from being a newbie to this site to posting confidently. I will try my best to categorize everything to help prevent confusion;
About Me
Well first off, I am Gregory. I am 21 (Recently turned), I am openly gay, I have been "open" for about 5-6 years now. I am in a relationship with an amazing man that I am so happy to be with, I enjoy being apart of LGBTQ functions such as; Pride Events, Gatherings, Drag Races,..etc. I don't tolerate discrimination of any kind, I believe people love who they love, people are who they feel they are. I am also a web-developer, I am going to college to get my bachelors in Technology Programming. I am a very curious person when it comes to finding out how things work, what drove me to loving programming was Facebook, I was always curious on how it work back end wise. You guys should already know I am a Community Moderator here, I love helping out this community as much as I can, I am very open to receiving messages and just having fun chatting with random people. I love video games, I am a PC kind of guy, but am familiar with some other game consoles. I personally love playing Minecraft, Elder Scrolls Online, Sims 4, and Elder Scrolls: Skyrim. You will find I am a bit nerdy, I like talking about websites and gaming, that is kind of who I am. Now something that should be noted, because I stated I am in a relationship, I don't flirt, I am a strong believer in being faithful and truthful.

- Looking through our Forums.
- Look through the past and current threads, they can help you understand what is acceptable to post and what isn't.
- Look at the Rules of Conduct, this will help you understand what isn't allowed and is allowed to be posted on our forums.
- Keeping up with latest Announcements is also important, do to the fact we can have upcoming; events, updates and even sometimes downtime.
- If you don't know what to post, you can easily go onto our Forum Games and see what fun posts you can participate in, if there isn't one that interests you, post one.
- Are you a reader or author of any kind? You can post your favorite books and advertise your book (it has to be made and published by you, as well as you can only advertise the Ebay and Amazon sells) on our Literature and Reading forum.
- There are so much more things you can post about, role-playing, music, Anime, .etc.
This forum has a lot to offer, as well as it's very unique. I started off as a Member, creating posts, interacting with other Members, becoming friends with pretty much all of them. Supporting the community is important, creating a safe haven for not only LGBTQ but also non-LGBTQ members. Here we love everyone and show respect and fairness to everyone.
