Hmmmm.
I wouldn't want to live in a world where Mr. J can't tell someone they're an idiot, and Noit can't buttsecks someone. Both of which could hurt someone's feewings. Anything anyone ever says can be taken the wrong way. I might have unintentionally upset Iargue a few days back with something I thought was just a mild statement, and the reaction was not what I expected at all. There's no telling what will set someone off. But I'd rather unintentionally give someone RAGE than have to tip-toe around each other all the time.
But please, old members, be more welcoming and understanding to the new people. The old members have the support of the whole board, the new kids are alone.
Which is why it's the
new member's responsibility to read, get a feel of people, comprehend the English language, and think before posting or wandering into the chat. You really can't expect everyone to be nice to someone who digs up old-ass threads to "LOL" or "I agree", or want to be BFFs with someone who annoys everyone in chat
by
hitting
enter
after
every
single
word
all
the
friggin'
time.
One of the appeals to me of this message board was the general sassiness. If anyone, new or old, can't take it, then maybe this isn't the place for them. I can understand being offended by a personal attack, but seriously. Welcome to the internets, n00bs. I'm not out to be rude, but if there's a chance for me to be a smartass, I'll take it.
Just my two cents.
You're more of a pussy than me, Steve.
Unless they live local and say shit like "omg im going to come over & rape your wife while you're at work" it's just all talk. This is a typical schoolyard bullying situation. Some kids said something and you went and told the principle.
And they got a 90% warning, fuckin' hell dude.. you're worse than me
This from someone who cries every time someone starts making your threads interesting by going off topic.
