**Welcome! Say hello and introduce yourself on this thread**

i think its a cheap print run, i assume kafka had mastered full stops, capital letters were all there ...

Hi I've just discovered this site whilst looking online for people that would be supportive to an anti-deportation campaign I'm involved with.

I didn't want to just jump in with links etc. Thought I should say hi to you all first and see if it would be ok to promote the campaign via the forum.

Many thanks

If it's a campaign for a specific person you may be better off asking on the regional boards. I know the North West board covers asylum quite a lot, don't know about the Midlands (does Coventry count as Midlands? I've been there but it didn't register where exactly it was.).

And Hi.

Hi, welcome

There's an 'Events and Announcements' board here and a midlands regional forum here (yes ticking_fool, coventry's midlands ). Any news you have could be posted in current affairs and if you want to try and organise stuff with others online there's the organise forum.

the announcement board is probably better for 'hit and run' type posts whereas the other boards are better if you're looking to stick around and discuss it. best of luck.

Hi everyone,

I`m relieved to finally have found an anarchist forum that seems to be up and running ) Seems like tens and tens of anarchist sites lay there un-updated in the internet?

Anyways, I`m 30-years old,a dad of two and a husband from Helsinki. I`ve been "an extreme leftist" at least for the last ten years,but only quite recently I`ve felt the need to get at least a bit more organized,or at least contacted to others doing the same things,so that`s why I`m writing this.

BTW; I`ve been trying to contact the AFED for a couple of times, as it`S the current secretariat of international affairs of the IAF-IFA, yes? But I`ve received no answers yet,so is it a working e-mail address thats up there? I would be interested in joining the International and starting something here in Helsinki,again,as it seems there`s no groups active here at the moment.

OK;I`ll get into reading stuff through here,and I`ll see you all somewhere there between the posts soon!

Hi Crane, welcome to the boards

there are a couple of AFed people on these boards (list here) - hopefully one of them will see this or maybe you could pm them to see if they can help.

There's also at least one other guy from finland here too (though he lives in the UK i think), if that makes any difference to anything

Thanks Joseph! I`ll try PM`ing them.

Hi everyone,
I'm on here really to educate myself. I don't have any specific views or political motivations, but will keep reading and educate myself along the way.
I'm 23, come from *cough* Dagenham, but don't live there anymore.
Cheers!

hi chinagirl,

welcome to the boards! ... a good place to start is the thought section here: http://www.libcom.org.uk/thought/ (it's still on the old server, the admins are in the middle of moving the site over and expanding it)

Cheers I'll do that!

hi everyone. for a good few years now i have identified as anarchist but due to smoking too much pot at uni and some desperate shyness i have never immersed myself into the movement. but now i'm looking to right that.
now i want to make much better use of my time and get involved with some proper actions. walk the walk instead of talking the talk you could say.

Hi fenella.

It might also be worth getting in touch with the Birmingham No Borders group (email: noborders-brum[at]lists[dot]aktivix[dot]org).

They're a busy lot, but if they can help I'm sure they will.

hi everyone

i'm luke. i live in leeds, and i don't feel i post enough on this board. was in the CWI, and hated it. looking to join SolFed, but don't know of any members in Leeds.

Hi Luke, there are regional forums here, I think that this one would be the best place to start if you're looking to get in touch with people in your area. There are a fair few Manchester SolFed people on here, not sure about Leeds.

There's a West Yorkshire SolFed group. They don't advertise an email address but I've met one of them so I know they exist! You can write to them at PO Box 75, Hebden Bridge, HX7 8WB. I'm sure they'd love to hear from you, especially if you are indeed capitalism's worst nightmare Welcome to the boards!

Hello,

I found out about this place from a reference @ the revleft forums. I consider myself Anarcho-Pacifist, but I am hesitant to label myself beacuse my opinions on life change so often. I'm in constant argument with myself in an attempt to realize, or hope to understand, how things should be.

I am now a university student studying anthropology and sociology. After undergrad I hope to get my PHD in anthropology focusing on revolutionary theory and the place of theology in society, and if it holds a place in future societies.

hi CoeXist, welcome to the boards! (i just said this on another thread, but this one's specifically for it )

Hi, I'm Gregg and am just coming to the surface after laying low by choice for the last few years. My outlook on life has found a home under the umbrella of anarchist-communist thinking. I live quite isolated outside of Brisbane, Australia and am looking to reengage with the community.

hi greg

theres a fair-sized aussie contingent here now ... not sure if anyones near you though, big place and all (there's at least one poster from brisbane ...)

Hello!
My name's Anna - I'm a married mom of one (thankfully, only one; he's a handful!) I'm 25 years old and I live in the United States. For fun I like to dumpster dive and I often live off capitalism's castoffs. I always hate writing these things because I never know what to say about myself. I'm pretty boring, actually. But I'm an anarchist chick who found your forums, so I figured I'd jump in.

hi my name is kate and i live in caerfyrddin in cymru (carmarthen in wales). i am a lone mother aged 47 who has recently recovered from a bout of agitated depression (text-book definition). i am looking for productive activities to stem my consumeristic tendencies, which have been running rampant recently. however rather than indulge in self-chastisement and degradation i have decided to whoop it up to the best of my ability at least until we get regime change in the so-called united (queen)kingdom. i am constantly looking for cheaper ways of doing it. i have produced 3 offspring. a 21year old daughter who studies at warwick university. an 18 year old son who is involved with a family who sell cars and petrol. and a 13 year old son who attends "our monarch" high school. my main interest in the work sphere is permaculture permaculture permaculture. somebody asked me if i was a tree hugger last night and i told him i would rather plant one than hug one. i am in the process of reestablishing myself as a proper human being after a personal disaster this year. i would be interested in being involved with forming an anarcho-syndicalist/ anarchist group or free association node in caerfyrddin/carmarthen if i could find 2 or 3 like- minded individuals who can cope with diversity, flexibility and fluid lines. i think i am going to be starting a woodland skills course and i also like studying the earths crust (geology-ish) my main recreational hobbies are walking and/to beaches especially marros. nuff said

Hi C. welcome in!

That's some in-depth description Glad things are going better for you...

Hello Caitlin! Glad to hear you have so much energy! Welcome to the boards. Have you checked out the Wales forum?

I wish I could get more walking on beaches done in my life...

Hi caitlin69,

Welcome to the group. I live nowhere near Wales, so I can't help you with that. But there is a forum here for Wales [as zobag said] http://libcom.org/forums/wales though it doesn't appear to be very active at the mo. Good luck with it though. And there are plenty of people here (and entries in the library) to answer any questions you might have, or give advice. The Thought and Organise forums would be a good place to start. And you can always socialise in the libcommunity forum.

Hello I came across this webforum through searching for Anarchist literature and it seems like a great place .
Im really interested in seeing what real,living anarchists have to say as opposed to 50 year old books on the topic.

So a good day/evening to you all .

hi david, welcome to the boards!

or, as mikhail bakunin said ... just kidding

And swimming in the sea!

Hello there,

For some reason its taken me far too long to join the libcom community...but better late than never eh?!

Where am I coming from? Insurrectionary/class struggle anarchist or ultra-leftist would be useful shorthand I guess, but lots of influences including Frankfurt School and Situs.

To the libcom team: sorry I missed you at the bookfair - but I'm guessing there will be other opportunities!
