I don't really know what's brought this on, I just think it should be done.
Well, that's lost me all my newbie votes. Meh.
Discuss.
Anyone seen that advert with Zippy from Rainbow?
After thirty days, if the newbie has an average words per post of at least 50, (-10 for each GAD won during that time), and has logged in at least ten times per week in the most recent week and five times per week on preceeding weeks, they qualify to go on to newbie stage 2.
After a further ten days, the mk2 newbie must have been approved as a regular by over 50% of the existing notables, and have a maximum average of one typing error per 50 words in over 80% of the posts made in those ten days, noninclusive of any posts containing smileys or the letter 'q'. Should these conditions be met, mk3 newbie status is achieved.
Following fifteen more days of intense scrutinisation, the mk3 newbie must have memorised the unwritten laws of the FOG, and now has until the next full moon to sacrifice a virgin to Satan and tatoo the keltic cross on their chest.
If this is done, the mk3 newbie now qualifies as a sub-regular, and need only wait three lunar years before the final trial begins.
Should the sub-regular reach this stage, he or she need now only prove their faith by leaping out of any tenth story building, blindfolded and wearing a straight jacket. Once this is done, they are finally deemed worth to be a regular.
Unless one or more of the forum members disapproves, in which case the applicant is rejected.
