Romaji please: Conversation in romaji Japanese only

Hey everyone. I wanted to start a thread using romaji ONLY!! I appologize to the mods if this is trouble but my computer will not allow any languages to be installed.(it's a school computer, I don't have one at home.) It would help me a lot if we could conversate in romaji.
Arigatou.

Sounds ok to me

Hey Skullcrushergirl,
I'm new here, but I don't see why not. Due to my limited resources, I'm going to be focusing on learning only Romaji for starters, so I'll be posting in that and in English.
Good luck to you

konnichi wa skullcrushergirl san !! chotto kowai deshita kedo, ananta no thread wo koko ni tsukerimashita. kono bashou ha ichiban ii desu kara.

(Hello skullcrushergirl san !! It was a little scary, but I put your thread here. This is the best place for it, that's why.)

koko de romaji wo tsukatte, douzo nihongo de hanashite kudasai.

(Using romaji here, please go ahead and speak in Japanese.)


NOTE* kono thread no mokuteki wa kana de kaku koto wa dekinai hitobito ga, romaji de nihongo wo tsukau bashou wo tsukuru koto desu. koutei teki ni shimashou !!!!!!!

(This thread's purpose, for those people who cannot write in kana [katakana, hiragana] is to make a place where they can use Japanese in romaji. Let's make it positive !!!!!!)

sore de. . . skullcrushgirl san. . . douzo !!

(And with that. . . please go ahead !!)

sore de, sekkaku shimashita kara kore kara eigo wo honyaku igai ni amari tsukawanai you ni onegaishimasu !!

(And, since we are going to the point of doing this, . . from now on, let's make an effort not to use English other than for translation or interpretation. . .PLEASE !! )
