People, People...

I just wanted to take the time to tell you that you all ROCK!

I've joined about 7 or 8 forums and on every one of them, every person (well almost) are mean assholes, and they hate new people for some reason, and they are always defiant, greedy, and... well, mean.

THANKS FOR BEING COOL AND NICE! YOU ALL ROCK!

*Stone Ill* · 12-20-2003, 03:50 PM

Why, thank you.

ya I know what you mean. Its like Fourms are gang members. But we are the good guys. Is mikeystmnt a good forum?

THEFAN · 12-20-2003, 06:52 PM

I agree I have seen how new guys are treated on forums and most I find are to quick to judge and eager to start stuff. This site has a nice feel to it and set up too. I seem to be visiting more than I thought. Thank you all. DOn aka THEFAN of the good guy

It's a kodak moment

*Brodie* · 12-20-2003, 07:24 PM

This makes me feel pretty.

*Anarky* · 12-20-2003, 08:05 PM

i kinda felt understood and "at home" here the moment i got the first replies in my first thread here. on other forums you get bashed askin these questions and here you simply get them answered.

Thank you

*Storm Wolf* · 12-20-2003, 10:20 PM

WoW i dunno what to say....lol!

I've been here a whole year myself (I can't believe it's been that long

) I usually never stay at forums that long....but I got such a friendly vibe and made so many friends that i just couldn't leave....*sighs* looks like you guys are stuck with me for a very long time cause your so darned friendly

I dont really go to any other forums, cause I'm not that big of an internet person, but I know what you are talking about. People on the internet are such jerks just cause they can get away with it. I'm sure they wouldnt be that way in real life with real people though.

Most people on this forum are very respectable....it's like we are making it cool to be nice again!

One Radical Dude · 12-21-2003, 04:52 AM

You rock, too!!!

You brought up new members of a message board. The place I once visited had many veteran members attacking new people because...welll...they're new. I hated that. This is one of the few places where you don't see much newbie-bashing.

You don't get it... those were the other forums i went to... and now i only go here. I might stop visiting the asshole ones.

And people, its true, this is by far the best forum i've ever been to.

Some quotes of the other boards when i first joined were

"Great, ANOTHER newbie? Thats the 3rd today! Take a break from the internet! Sign up another day!"

"Hey, you've only been here 1 day, n00b, don't start a topic, LOOK AROUND RETARD."

Those came from gaming sites and fan game sites.

Man, I know what you mean. I've been on 4-5 forums, and I left all but this and another one due to stupid people. The first one I was at got over-run by stupid people (mainly Newbs), and they kicked out all the intellegent people. Second one disbanded (I think) due to Rareware joining the dark side (Microsoft). Third one was about the site I worked at, but we've pretty much abandoned that one. Fourth one is still good (go to lylat.net, if you are a Star Fox lover), but we're all getting really anxious due to lack of screenshots.

I gotta say, out of all the places I've been, this one is probably the most reasonably run and open. Kudos to that!
