Hi Everyone!
First, I'd like to thank Patchou for the very warm welcome! I'm so happy to join the Messenger Plus! community which Patchou has done a marvelous job of creating and managing since 2001. The bar has been set very high for me and Yuna Software, and we're very excited to make Messenger Plus! even better than it already was. Like Patchou said: with more frequent updates, cool new features and more personalized attention for you guys-the users, testers and translators.
Please, feel free at any time to send me private message, email or write something in the forum about anything related to Messenger Plus! or even just to say hello (I love meeting new people)!
I am ALWAYS welcome to your personal feedback, questions, comments as well as constructive criticism (plain criticism is rarely helpful, please keep it constructive).
To continue the introduction made by Patchou, I'm 25 years old and a Los Angeles, California native. Yes, Patchou's claim is true-I make some of the most amazing guacamole ever known to man. Maybe if I'm feeling super generous I'll share the recipe with you all (it's super easy but it's just...AMAZING!). I love to read and write-I majored in Psychology and Journalism at University and love to spend my free time working on my book and writing short stories and articles.
I love movies, travel, and want to go to India someday to volunteer in an orphanage and study yoga at a Yoga ashram (I love yoga). I love the beach, vintage shopping and animals. I love going to second hand stores and finding something absolutely amazing-my last amazing find was a REAL 60's vintage Hermes handbag for $100 (I checked all of the seams, stitching, hardware, zippers-which are the telltale signs of a replica handbag).
I am SUPER excited about the Tim Burton version of Alice in Wonderland, set to hit theaters next month! I am obsessed with Alice in Wonderland and I really hope this version is true to the original Lewis Carroll stories while adding new depth to the story. It looks quite promising (at least visually speaking, and from the various previews I've seen), but I think I'll save my opinion until I've finally seen it.
Thank you all SO much for your warm welcome and I look forward to being a part of this amazing community. I look forward to getting to know you all and please-feel free to say hi!
Yours truly,
Vanessa (Alice)

Welcome to the community. I can imagine it's not that easy to get familiar in short time with a forum/community which has been going for years. Hope you'll fit in .
Also hope you'll be able to answer some the questions the testers and translators have about their status now Plus! is not solely in Patchou's control anymore.
Hi Menthix-thanks for your welcome. Your comment about Yuna being "a bunch of mysterious people who don't seem to talk" is exactly the reason why I was brought in as a community manager-to serve as YOUR point of contact to Yuna.
I am here to answer all questions you may have about Plus! If I don't know the answer-I will let you know when I can get back to you with an answer and ask whoever does know at Yuna.
Please try to be understanding that there are many people who do work at Yuna-and I may have to ask another person or department about your question. I am always here to help in whatever way I can and look forward to having a great time with you all on the forum.

As many will tell, I was rather frustrated with the lack of communication *cough* CookieRevised *cough* so this is great news for me .
Hi Lou-I'm glad that you're happy to have me here! Thanks for the welcome. In terms of communication-please, communicate away. I'm all ears.
