Re: Newbie opinions

And no AJ I am not drunk, I am at work. So don't get your tampon in a bundle. I don't need to vote since I am almost as bitchy as Jakey when it comes to how people post (I said almost). This site has cleaned up a lot in the last year though, I remember when it was pretty chaotic. Sometimes newbies think I am an asshole when I ask them to post in a different manner, but when in actuality its for their own good. The more clear they type and the more information they put in their posts the easier it is for them to get help. Also when joining a site, I would say you are respected more from the get go if you can type in atleast a 6th grade level.

I bet over the last year I have sent hundreds of PMs to people telling them to shape up. Usually it works. Some people are not curable though.

I would also like to add that there is a report bad post tab in each post. So you as a member can use that to report messed up posts or something that offends you so it can be dealt with.
