    WHen *you* were, (or are) a newbie, what stupid things did you do that you're embarrased about or laugh at yourself for? CONFESS!!

    My stupidst was when I got my first Internal Server Error, I was sooo scared I'd done something wrong (Maybe even ruined the site somehow) that I emailed the address it gave. I got a reply saying they had no idea what I was talking about. ( I got some weird Internet Company)

    If you must, don't laugh to hard at me. ;) :p

    First time i posted, I accidently created a thread instead of replying. That was way back when we had UBB. (Diff. name too)

    I was really mortified though

    I can see that, Thong. *grin* I also double posted a lot, (by pressing the *back* button instead of following the link..) And since it was back when we had UBB, I asked how to do the smilies.. and was so shy to post, yet insulted when no one noticed me.

    When I was new, I thought I knew it all.

    I was living the good life, posting under the influence like there was no tomorrow.

    While intoxicated, I drove one of my posts headlong into a post full of kids and their single mother. The mother was killed, and all but 2 of the kids died, the survivors horribly disfigured.

    I learned alot from that. It hurts me right here to think about those damned ugly orphans asking why God took mommy away.

    Sometimes, when I try to sleep at night, I can still hear their screams...

    I didn't know how to make smiles or how to edit my posts.

    Lun posted a topic about IM names and I went and brought up a topic about IM names. "For the newbies" I think Lun had been a member as long or longer then me. The mistake really was, it called attention to my IM to Lun.....still gives me nightmares. ;-)

    Yeah me too *shudders* Imagine, mortal enemies such as us, talking *Cordially* to eachother! I shall never make that mistake again, Mitt. ;)

    And I remember that now, Mitt...*blushes terribly*

    Red, is it morbid if I was laughing my head off?

    Not morbid. You have a well adjusted sense of humor.

    I can't think of any newbie-related gaffs here at the JC. However, early in my online career, as the moderator of a forum on an old VMS-based bulletin board, I deleted all the posts of this guy I didn't like. Then I had the gall to brag about it. My only excuse is that I was 19 and a doofus. I'm still ashamed of doing that.

    I got giddy around post # 15, completely enthralled by the rising numbers, so I posted 46 times in one thread, complete gibberish too. My first run-in with Chyren ;). I wasn't actually banned because I professed ignorance of what spamming meant. (Maybe I shouldn't be admitting this?)(Is there a statute of limitations on spamming?) That was of course way back when, when I was a young immature child. (And there were no post-a-minute rules.)

    As soon as I registered immediately posted this topic:

    the ring of sauron 4/27 1:48pm Balance to the Force...Why?
    Lets think logically about this. To balance something means to have it equal. Now if at the time of EPI there are mainly just good Jedi, then to balance that would mean to bring dark Jedi into the equation. The propecy was true, Anakin does bring "balance to the Force". He balances out good Jedi to Bad. Now the question is, Why didnt Yoda or the other Jedi see that thats what the propecy meant??? Why would they want "Balance to the Force"?

    Only, my name wasnt "ring of sauron," the move to snowboard totally screwed up my first thread, so I don't hafta take blame! HA!

    Oh yeah, after everyone jumped on my back, I asked a Jedi Knight to delete it. I didn't quite read the FAQ's to see that only masters could delete it.


    A true confession.
