Thanks for the Reply!

Thanks for getting back to me, you'd be surprised at how many people just shun welcomes nowadays. Anyhow, no need to worry if you just do minor stuff, everybody's got their own style on here; they're all good as long as they contribute rather than detract to the project.

P.S- I forgot the tildes too for awhile, they make being on here alot easier.
