The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
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.
> what was this place like when it first started? i mean the first day, how many people were here?
It's unfortunate really that we have popped so many of the original threads.
Basically the threads all had 1 message in each and they were by people called "Bob" and suchlike.
yeah i am a newbie, on other mesasge boards on the net i'm a regular and, as is customary, i and fellow regulars take the mickey out of newbies. its a laugh, and it helps separate the "kiddies" from the "generaly alright posters".
(i use these terms loosely by the way)
and yeah, ummm i did have a point to this post but *whoosh* its gone...
er-Gang
This is only a joke, right?
The whole forum is not going to be littered with "prod prod mwwahaha" and suchlike all over the place, is it?
Otherwise I'll have to be "Defender of the Newbies" and "Return of the Defender of the Newbies" and "Defender of the Newbies, the sequel"
And that WOULD get on your nerves wouldn't it.
(But unlike Grix I do not differentiate much between intelligent Newbies and thick ones. We want them all!)
> And look at me now.
I'd rath...
Damn, Prime Topics again... mustn't.
We were all newbies once.
Just post good stuff and you'll be accepted in no time.
I was good when I 1st started, offered serious posts about stuff.
And look at me now.
