Hello. It's nice to meet all of you. I am the one they call Alibaba. Or I would be if I wasn't dragged from home to a place where I have no reputation.

I'll make this simple. I'm looking to make a deal--information is what I need. Specifically, I want to know more about this porting process.

I don't expect anyone to be able to tell me how it works, but anything you might know would be...helpful. I would be especially interested in speaking with anyone that was able to go home before being brought back.

You can answer freely or we can see if we can reach a deal that works for both of us. I'll be waiting.

Hopefully they can fill you in on things I, being a new arrival myself, am unaware of. If not then I suggest reading the old network posts; that has been quite educational.

I appreciate it. Being from 1950, I've had to do a lot of work to even be able to text decently. But challenges are how we find out what we're capable of, I suppose.

I have been digging through some of those post...pretty helpful stuff, but a lot of it only raises more questions.

By the way, I like the positive attitude...It can be worth it facing challenges head on like that.

The more you know, the more you know that you don't know? It's a common feeling, around here.

Your own attitude is remarkably positive. Some people arrive and want nothing more than to leave, but you're learning and reaching out to others, which I think is a far wiser approach. After all, avoiding challenges does not make them go away.
