    Oh that's real mature, WOS. It's so nice to see you've finally mastered sarcasm.

    "Buh-bye again, Arse ... nal. "

    Back when Arsenal1234 was around, I actually got a 24 slap for putting his name like that. So why is it in a thread that's telling people not to say stuff like that?

    YOTS
    I had a feeling it would be over soon. i believe you would make a good mod. so i will change that part of my sig. however i think ur problem was you had too many apprentices.
    i belive i know which apprentice u referred to. i was unable to get on yesterday and read up. so i checked today and i am very upset about what occured, but if this is the apprentice, we must remember his inmaturity.
    i still consider myself a new member to these forums, but i agree with jasman that the new members [newbies is a term that disrespects the members in my opinion]
    i was called a natzi by a certain member and had a hard time with that member. luckily it stopped. i was even mistaken for u yots and had a pm that said who died and made u ceasar. i had no idea what he was talking about. certain members don't belong in these forums and don't learn lessons. we have to deal with it. like it or not that is life. there r many foolish and immature people. we members must treat everyone equaly. i am catholic so i guess i should say this
    "treat others the way you want to be treated". if someone treats you cruely don't do the same. it shows that you are the better person for not being angry and replying. my new quote " treat new members the way you want to be treated".

    Having been here for many, many years now I think I'll reply to all of this.

    It's like "newbies" are becoming more important then the people who actually have been here forever and always been here. How many of the people that register and immediately post away, actually stick around all that long anyways?

    I have no problem with you trying to halt relentless bashing of a 'newbie', but sometimes things just get old. I mean there is the "New To the Forums" post, rules, explanations, etc, etc....that are ignored by a vast majority of people who have just signed up. If they cannot take a few minutes to actually read the rules, and then look through the boards for the thread, and yes there will be one on whatever topic they are posting 999 times out of a 1000, then I don't see why those of us who've been here 3-4 years and have seen these same topics, every other day for that entire time, have to weed through alll the redundancy to find some good posts.

    I'm not saying that it should be open season on the "newbies", but perhaps a stricter registering process and some way of ensuring everybody who signs up actually reads the rules and checks out the "try here first" thread directing them to everything.


    I know not allowing a newly registered fan to post for a certain amount of visits to the board would never be adopted, but something like it should possibly be considered. I just get tired of seeing someone who just registered, disregard everything and post that "Anakin is 10 years older in star wars II!"....and more so I get tired of seeing it everyday.


    Again, I'm not advocating allowing people to totally trash 'newbies' but banning people for anything not completely positive towards a newly registered person seems a stretch.


    I think the sarcasm and angry posts towards "newbies" would be greatly decreased if they were more forced to adhere to rules and actually look for pre-existing threads.....just locking the threads doesn't work, because it continues to happen everyday.


    I want more people to keep coming and feel welcome here, and I don't want new people to get a negative vibe or refuse to return, but then again it's not fair to chase off people who've been here forever simply because they don't want to sit back and just 'ignore' all the reduntant posts, locked or not, that are non-stop.


    As far as a newbie posting in a thread and saying something a bit reduntant, I think that's perfectly fine and should be expected and people should cut them some slack, but I think people find it hard to do sometimes.
