Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. -- 12 N oo n 2¢ 03:59, 3 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello, Ihateabc! I am afraid you may be misunderstanding the purpose of Wikipedia. Wikipedia, as stated above, is not a social network nor to be used as one. We are an encyclopedia. If you wish to contribute to the encyclopedia, welcome aboard! If you are looking for a social network, there are several other sites other than Wikipedia that may better serve you. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Regards.-- 12 N oo n 2¢ 02:16, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
