No... really. Seriously. Stop laughing.

I know I've been a main culprit of this, and I really shouldn't be the one to speak, but this is getting out of hand. Some intelligent newbies have been appearing over the past month, and they are still being treated like cheatguru. I've got nothing against people taking the mick out of people like that, I mean they're disabled, and can't fight back, but this is silly. These newbies really ARE human, and it's not nice.

Newbie isn't the right word cause i've been here for around 2 months but just cause i don't post Endless amounts of spam and REPLY QUOTING THIS MESSAGE. newbie/regular just encourages spam i could become a regular overnight but then EVERYBODY woud hate me but now we don't want that It gives us newbies a bad name e.g. cheatguru most newbies aren't as thick as cheatguru's famous saying "PS2 is crap.HA" or nuff said

P.S. sorry for shorts, punctuation and spelling i'm to tired to spell

As long as there's someone here to help newbies on the right track as well. That's what the Notables were originally set up to do, wasn't it Tony?

Constructive comments are worth far more than insults, although sometimes it is justified to get things through to certain thick headed individuals!

Anyway, they still need encouragement otherwise Tony won't get any new customers!
