The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only.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.
This is for all new users, who are thus dubbed 'newbies'. Simply print this passage, and use these words to replace the ones you use so much. people will like you better for it!
first off, some simple word replacements.
U - You
R - Are
n00b - Fool
wot - What
Stoopid - Stupid
i - I
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111 - !
im - I'm
ur - You are, or you're
sux - Sucks
Rox - Rocks
------------------------------------------
Next, we shall move onto more complex things. it is advised you revise these prior to posting, as they are even more so vital to know than single word spellings.
im the bestest - I am the greatest ;)
the ps2 is for sheep
- The PS2 in my humble opinion has to great a superficial fanbase
The x-box sux!
- The X-box is over hyped in my opinion, and too many games are PS2 or PC ports.
The Gamecub is fer kidds! -
The Gamecube is slightly too colourful in my opinion, games like Mario sunshine and pitman won't appeal to others than Nintendo’s current fanbase, they need to get out and advertise more of there Adult games
u can't stop me postin till 9pm fridy!
- You cannot oppress my opinion on the consoles and the users of this chat forum until I am banned at around 9pm on a Friday.
u talk cr@p!
- I do not agree with what is being said.
how sad r u?
- Is it really necessary to argue over it this much? it is only a Game/Chat forum.
Sorry!
- I apologise for my behaviour, it was unfair to your console/Game/You
-------------------------------
Got all that down? Yes? Excellent! now for explanations on the workings on the forums.
'JAT' - Just Arrived Today.
This is your starting position. It is best not to post anything yet, and wait till you're a 'Newbie' before you post a topic. It is vital you try to use good grammar and spelling as a JAT, because people tend to consider JATs who are poor spellers as on par to vermin.
'Newbie'
Many campaigns have been started to change the name of this detrimental title, but so far they have been to nought. After twenty four hours, your name will deepen in it's redness. this will give you the ability to relax slightly on the spelling, but capital letters and good grammar (I.E what you write must make sense) are still important. Regulars will still make it hard for you to gain their recognition, because a lot of them (I.E Boss_Pac_Man) think that because they have been on the forums for 21 days and posted a lot, they are better than you. They don't all have this view thankfully.
'Regular'
The infringement of blue into your name will signify that you have become a regular after 21 days and by posting 300 or more messages totalling 10,000 or more words. This does not exclude you Completely for your spelling, but gives you a much greater leeway. Bad grammar is unacceptable still. as a regular, you will be given far less flak for posting under-standard topics, but don't let your standard slip just because of this.
'Notable'
These people have the yellow, often referred to as 'Pee-coloured', are the Notable's of the forums. Most are funny, laid back posters, who can get away with posting stuff that a JAT would be banned for because 'it's funny' and their name is yellow. When the notable elections come round, the forums will be worse for it. Don't get involved in any of the 'Vote For me' threads, nor would I advise you to make any yourself. Campaigners almost never win the elections.
Staff Regulars/Staff Newbies
Yes, that’s right, the Staff can be Newbies too! These members have the power to delete posts, and ban members. I wouldn't advise you to try and be smart with them, either.
User banned
When someone has pushed the limit, their posts, if not deleted, will be grey in colour, and their tagline will bear: USER BANNED. this is the worse position you can get. don't let your self slip there.
--------------------------------
Choosing your Name/Tagline is important. Don't try to use Obscure symbols from your keyboard, simply typing your name, your nickname, or a pun on your name is a good bet. As for tagline, *insert tagline* is not too controversial, but a witty comment that fits twenty characters including spaces is fine. if you have room, a (tm) or (r) is a good idea.
--------------------------------
Web Abbreviations.
those such as LOL or ROFLMAO are good ways of expressing appreciation, but it is advised you do-not over use them.
:) - simple smiley.
;) - winking smiley: Incurs what was said is a joke.
:D - Laughing Smiley.
LOL - Laugh_Out_Loud. a good way of expressing appreciation of humour used.
ROFLMAO - Rolling_On_Floor_Laughing_My_As$_Off. Basically a stronger version of LOL.
------------------------
That, Newbies and JAT-ellmen, is the forums in a nutshell. Heed my word's of warning, for hey will allow you to conquer the greatest of barriers.
Or something.
