Greetings. I'll sum it up rather simply, I am the brother of sir Orthrus (Who has already nabbed the title of Stalin I can see,) and after a number of years he's finally managed to drag me onto this board as well. Pleasure to meet the lot of you, and hopefully we'll enjoy each others company.

Hello, Cerberus. Glad to meet you, and I'd like to wish you well on the board. I hope that you'll look over the roleplaying sections at some point and see if anything interests you, and if not, then I look forward to seeing you in other threads. Have fun!

Greetings, Cerebrus, from the welcome wagon! It's nice to have new members here, however many we get. Nope, 1,200 just isn't enough . Predator fan as well, or just here for the ride?

Both really. Can't say I'm what you'd call a serious Predator fan but I enjoyed the original movie and find the Universe to be interesting. For the most part I'm here to enjoy the community and satisfy Orth.

Especially when you consider that only what....100 of them post? I'll describe Cer right off the bat: He usually attends a much more....slice of life forum. Plenty of sandpaper grit and swearing out idiots a la Hannibal style. So when he starts criticizing, you might need some thicker skin. Either that or a pitch fork.

Don't worry, I'll turn into a cute tail wagging pup. Although I might bite on occasion.... *Cough*

For the most part I'm here to enjoy the community and satisfy Orth. Well, hope you do enjoy yourself here! I believe we have a number of members that know quite some things about the Predator Universe, especially Stegin' Paya(Resourceful guy, however often he is on). Anyway, I sincerely hope you enjoy your time here. Greetings, Cerebrus, from the welcome wagon! It's nice to have new members here, however many we get. Nope, 1,200 just isn't enough .

Big Board, little commotion.

Probably people signing up, then forgetting they did and going back to their day jobs or regular places on the internet. I've seen a number of people in the 'Newest Member' section of the box at the bottom. usually people from months ago, that still have less than two posts and haven't posted since their first week.

Welcome. I hope that you'll have a good time here, and that we can all get along. If not, I guess all hell will break loose, which will be fun.

Out of curiosity, Cerberus, what does 'Zdarova' mean? I would assume something along the lines of 'Hello' or 'Greetings', but I didn't want to be presumptuous.

You assumed correctly. It's one of the Russian words for hello, informal version of 'Zdrastvoyte' which is a formal greeting. It's along the lines of "Hey mate."

Well, that improves my confidence in my guessing ability. Thank you for that, and I'll store that little fact away with all the other knowledge that could come in handy one day. How is that pronounced, exactly?

Well, well, well, hello! I am very pleased to finally see you around The Hunted. If you're even half of the force your brother is, lol, this is going to be one hell of a ride. Welcome aboard.

Hm. I'm trying to think of an example. Zdah-ro-vah, more or less. And a pleasure to meet you as well Adara. Although for the most part, Orth and I tend to be the type of siblings who spend their lives attempting to kill the other off. Mainly, so that we can conquer the entire world instead of only half of it.

Zdarova....is actually cut right from Zdarovya, which literally means health.
One thing you'll notice about Russian is that everything is derived from something and usually has some symbolism behind it. Hell, the Russian word from thank you specifically comes from "God Save you".
Anyway, Zdarova, a friendly informal word, comes from the use of "Zdorov" in the same fashion, which is cut from "Byt Zdorov" or "be healthy".
In other words, Cer's greeting essentially said "To your health guys."
Don't you love European languages?

A la Hannibal huh? Welcome to The Hunted Cerb. Glad to have met the infamous brother of Orth and to yet have another conversationalist about. I assume we will be meeting eventually, hope your stay is an adventurous one.
