Finally Joined CRVL Forums! Yessss

[AngryVanMan]

Hi All!

I've been waiting for some time to be able to join up with your forums, it's been a long process for me due to some boring technical specifics of how I interact with the Internet.  Cheap RV Living was a site I've wanted to join for awhile now, it's so nice to finally be here!

Anyway, a bit about me, I'm just starting the process of van living, I ordered a Ford Transit for my copilot and myself, and it should be incoming shortly.  We'll be doing a little DIY conversion and, with any luck posting a little here and there about the process. Maybe even some YouTube in the mix, I love watching all the van channels there are now, it's frankly amazing to me.  We are on the older side of "millennial" aged folks if anyone cares about that sort of thing.

Just wanted to do a quick introduction and to say that I really appreciate these forums, although I've never been able to access them frequently or reliably, hopefully my new solution changes all that and I can check in here more often.  Great Resource!

hi and welcome. one question, why are you angry? highdesertranger

 

[AngryVanMan]

Hi highdesertranger!

That's a good question, but really nothing out of the ordinary I'd say, and much of the subject matter is taboo for this forum per the rules! There's plenty to be angry about if you're an Average Joe in 2016. But there's plenty to be happy about too, and we're generally happy people.

The Angry_____ pseudonym is a common trope on the Internet for various demographics, usually on blogs where tounge-in-cheek complaints and tirades can be shared in a semi-humorous or ironic way, which I may or may not do on some alternative venue in the future - I can neither confirm nor deny any such speculation for now!

Hey that's not fair, I'd be just as angry if I was a geezer dang nabbit! Thanks for the welcome Guy, I plan to make good use of all the technical info available here, that is guaranteed.

Welcome! Hopefully overcoming whatever barriers held you at bay from joining CRVL in the past, will help you feel less angry now...

You could re-register as SlightlyLessAngryVanMan

Hey thanks Brad! Well it must be somewhat cathartic to be on the #1 vandwelling forum of all time, I'd say. It's practically the stuff of legends!

Welcome to the CRVL forums AngryVanMan! It's impossible to stay angry once you move into a van so you might have to change your name. :-D
Looking forward to your conversion details and photos!

To help you learn the ins and outs of these forums, this "Tips & Tricks" post lists some helpful information to get you started. We look forward to hearing more from you.

Hi and Welcome!!

 

[AngryVanMan]

Thanks rvwandering!

I've taken a look at the tips you've linked and it all seems quite well thought out, I like it.  Once I get the van and start on the process I'll certainly be sharing it here, we're quite excited about the prospects already, I must say.

Theadyn, we posted at almost the exact same time, must be kismet! Thanks for the warm welcome!
