Special "Rules" for this Forum only have now been added to the UKdiscussion.com home page.

I'm not suggesting that these rules be very firmly enforced.

BUT, next time things get busy, and some innocent Newbie is messing up your thread, then please point him to the rules so that we keep this forum nice 'n clean.

so to become a regular you have to write lots of messages then? doesnt that mean that there will be loads of messages about nothing, or is that normal?

I thought it was supposed to be the newbies who were rude and abusive - ah well, it's not a perfect world

The Creed of Special Reserve
----------------------------

We believe that.....

I must think of an original topic

I can post anything as long as it is not offensive

I must write short comments and not break up a story thread

I must not make blatent gameaday attempts

I must reply lots to my own messages

I must pray to the almighty Tony, and do anything he says

I must also pray to the almighty regulars on the board, who know everything

I must not do anything clever, witty, or in anyway normal, since I am an unimportant Newbie (and proud to be), and am inferior in all ways to the superior regulars and notables.

Amen, Repeat, Ad Lib.

(Well, sounds like more fun that just typing a message!)

(I will clarify - just in case.)

I don't think newbies should be killed. Their actions don't deserve that. Perhaps extensively subjected to extreme torture methods...

(again, I don't mean this either. It just reflects the way I feel.)

(That wasn't serious either.)

Everyone confused yet? ;)

I would post a message about newbies being the spawn of the devil, and that they should be ritually burned at the stake or 'hanged by the neck until they are dead'...

...but they'd probably think I meant to be offensive.
